To install the cooktop, cut out a rectangular
opening in the counter as shown on the
drawing and table below. Also, ensure that
you have a minimum of 10 mm (3/8”) of
space in the back of the unit, between the
rim and backsplash on your counter (or wall
if no backsplash) for ventilation.
A self-adhesive gasket is supplied with your
unit. Before setting the cooktop in place
install this gasket by sticking it underneath
the rim.
f your counter is produced from porous materials which tend to swell if in contact
with humidity and water, to better protect the cut-out, use proper sealants on the
edge which would prevent any penetration of humidity and water.
Chamfer all exposed edges of decorative laminates to prevent further chipping.
Radius corners of the cut-out and file them to ensure smooth edges and prevent
corner cracking.
Rough edges and inside corners which are not rounded as well as forced fits can
contribute to cracking of counter top laminate.
IApply the gasket only along the front rim
and on both sides. Do not put this gasket on
the rim in the back. This gasket will prevent
most of the spills from entering the cabinet
below and will keep the unit in place. Once
the gasket is installed, place the cooktop in
the opening, and lay it on the rim. Do this
carefully - do not drop the unit into the cut-
out. Make sure that the unit is sitting
properly on its rim all around the perimeter.
