Sealing
The appliance must not be
permanently sealed into the countertop
when installed. The sealing strip under
the edge of the appliance provides a
sufficient seal for the countertop.
If the appliance is sealed into
position, the countertop or appliance
could be damaged if it needs to be
removed for maintenance or service.
Tiled surfaces
The grouting a and shaded area under
the appliance frame must be flat and
even so that the frame will lie evenly
and the sealing strip under the edge of
the upper part of the appliance can
provide an adequate seal against the
countertop.
