Clearance Dimensions
PROXIMITY TO SIDE CABINET
INSTALLATION
• The cooktop may be installed directly to
existing base cabinets.
• The cooktop CANNOT be installed
directly adjacent to sidewalls, tall cabinets,
tall appliances, or other side vertical
surfaces above 36” (91.4 cm) high. There
must be a minimum of 6” (15.2 cm) side
clearance from the cooktop to such
combustible surfaces above the 36”
(91.4 cm) counter height.
• Within the 6” (15.2 cm) side clearance to
combustible vertical surfaces above
36” (91.4 cm), the maximum wall cabinet
depth must be 13” (33.0 cm) and wall
cabinets within this 6” (15.2 cm) side
clearance must be 18” (45.7 cm) above
the 36” (91.4 cm) high countertop.
• Wall cabinet above the cooktop must be
a minimum of 36” (91.4 cm) above the
countertop for a full width of the cooktop.
• If a ventilation hood is installed over the
cooktop, the minimum 36” (91.4 cm)
height clearance above the unit does not
apply. Refer to the hood installation
instructions for further information.
Minimum Clearances from Adjacent
Combustible Construction
• Above countertop 36” (91.4 cm) minimum
• Side 6” (15.2 cm)
• Rear 0” (0.0 cm)
• Within 6” side clearance. Wall cabinets no
deeper than 13” (33.0 cm)
• Must be minimum 18” (45.7 cm) above
countertop
• Wall cabinets directly above the product
must be minimum 36” (91.4 cm) above the
countertop
For Brazil/Mexico Only: It is
recommended that a removable shelf be
installed under the appliance after it has
been fully installed to prevent
unintended access to the appliance
during use.
Note: Dimensions shown are for use
with combustible surfaces unless
otherwise stated.

Clearance Dimensions
INTERIOR CABINET CLEARANCES
INDUCTION COOKTOPS
IMPORTANT: The electronic components
for the induction elements in the cooktop
need air circulation. To ensure long life of
electronic components, it is required that
1-1/2 (3.8 cm) or more open space remains
between the bottom of the cooktop and any
shelf underneath. The maximum length of
the shelf underneath is 18” (45.7 cm). It is
required that the exit air ports at the front are
not blocked.
WOOD/COMPOSITE OVERLAY
The bottom of a standard hood should be
30” (76.2 cm) min. to 36” (91.4 cm) max.
above the countertop. This would typically
result in the bottom of the hood being
66” (167.6 cm) to 72” (182.9 cm) above the
floor. Refer to the rangehood installation
instructions for additional information. These
dimensions provide for safe and efficient
operation of the hood.

reduced by installing a range hood that
projects horizontally a minimum of 5" (12.7
cm) beyond the bottom of the cabinets.
Electrical Connection
When making the wire connections, use
the entire length of the conduit provided
(4 feet). The conduit must not be cut.
Connect the red and black leads from the
unit conduit to the corresponding leads in
the junction box. The bare ground wire in the
conduit is connected to the unit frame. When
connecting to a 3-conductor branch circuit,
connect the bare ground connector lead of
the unit to the branch circuit ground (bare
wire or green in color).
WARNING
The electrical power to the
unit must be shut off while line
connections are being made.
Failure to do so could result in serious
injury or death.

Final Preparation
• Some stainless steel parts may have plastic
protective wrap which must be peeled off.
• All stainless steel body parts should be
wiped with hot, soapy water and with a
liquid cleaner designed for this material.
If buildup occurs, DO NOT use steel wool,
abrasive cloths, cleaners, or powders!
• If it is necessary to scrape stainless steel to
remove encrusted materials, soak with hot,
wet cloths to loosen the material, then use
a wood or nylon scraper. DO NOT use a
metal knife, spatula, or any other metal
tool to scrape stainless steel! Scratches are
almost impossible to remove.
Performance Checklist
A qualified installer should carry out the
following checks:
Check top surface elements
1. Starting with the left front element,
turn the corresponding knob to the
HI position—left front indicator should
flash.
2. Place an induction compatible piece
of cookware onto the left front
burner—left front indicator should be
solid.
3. Remove cookware and repeat steps
