Preparation
Countertop requirements _ WARNING: To reduce the risk of ignition of nearby combustible materials,install the countertop with a minimum distance of 2" (51mm) from both side
walls and the back wall.
Note The work surface should be horizontal and level. The stability of the countertop
should be confirmed even after making the cutout.
After preparing cutout, remove shavings as they can affect the function of electrical
components.
Seal the surfaces of the cutout to make them heat resistant. This prevents the
surfaces from expanding as a result of humidity.
Solid surface countertops often require special installation. For example, heat
reflective tape or rounded corners may be necessary. Contact the countertop
manufacturer for instructions specific to your countertop.
