Installation Requirements

A minimum 2″ (51) is required from the bottom of the cooktop to combustible materials. Clearance is required for the conduit located at the right rear of induction and electric cooktops. Refer to the illustration below for dimensions. Refer to the illustrations on pages 6–8 for additional minimum clearances. Installation dimensions are the same for
induction and electric cooktops of the same width.

WARNING

Failure to locate the cooktop without proper clearances will result in a fire hazard.

FLUSH INSTALLATION

Contemporary induction and electric cooktops can be mounted flush with the top of the countertop or as a frameless standard installation sitting on top of the countertop
surface. If the cooktop is to be mounted flush with the countertop, a recessed area surrounding the cooktop cutout must be provided. An installation kit and instructions required for a flush installation are provided with the Contemporary cooktop.

CAUTION

A flush installation is intended for granite, solid surface, or stone countertop surfaces only.

MULTIPLE COOKTOPS

When multiple cooktops or modules are installed side by side, the countertop cutout width is determined by adding the width of each unit, then subtracting 1″ (25). Refer to the
illustration below.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

Contemporary induction and electric cooktops are not designed to be installed in combination with other cooktops.

Flush Installation

To ensure a proper installation, a template for the countertop cutout should be created using the cooktop glass.

ROUTING OPTION

For this installation, a recessed area surrounding the countertop cutout is required. Fabrication of the recessed area bmust take place before the countertop is installed.
This option is not recommended for countertops with a molded backsplash.

CLEAT OPTION

For this installation, the countertop cutout is the same size as the outer edge of the cooktop glass. Attach L-shaped cleats to the perimeter of the countertop
cutout. The top edge of the cleat cannot be wider than 7/8″ (22) and is attached 5/16″ (8) below the surface of the countertop. Refer to the illustration below. Attach the
cleats to the countertop. Consult a countertop supplier for proper methods of attachment.

Cooktop Installation

Remove the cooktop and components from the shipping package and recycle packing materials.

Lower the cooktop into the countertop cutout. Center the cooktop in the opening with the front edge aligned parallel to the front edge of the countertop. Using a
pencil, outline the rear edge of the cooktop on the countertop. Remove the cooktop.
Apply the foam strip to the perimeter of the countertop opening. Refer to the illustration below. Do not seal the cooktop to the countertop.
Insert the cooktop into the opening. Verify the cooktop is aligned with the front edge of the countertop.
