covered surface.
2. Remove the attachment screws for the selected bracket
locations from the bottom of the cooktop base.
3. Select bracket mounting holes that will allow the bracket to
extend far enough out from the cooktop for the installation of
2½" (6.4 cm) clamping screws. See “Attach Cooktop to
Countertop” for illustration of clamping screw installation.
4. Attach brackets to cooktop base bottom with bracket
attachment screws using the bracket mounting holes
selected in Step 2.
5. Rotate brackets so they do not extend beyond edge of
cooktop base.
6. Tighten screws just enough to hold brackets in place when
cooktop is put in cutout.

place in cutout.
NOTE: Make sure that the front edge of the cooktop is
parallel to the front edge of the countertop. If repositioning is
needed, lift entire cooktop up from cutout to avoid scratching
the countertop.
8. Loosen the screws and rotate the brackets so that they are
perpendicular to the edge of the cooktop base and extend
beyond its edge. Securely tighten screws.
