IMPORTANT INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Other Installation Requirements
During cooking, built-in fan inside the cooktop will operate constantly to keep the internal components cool.
The air intake is on the bottom of the cooktop box and the warm air exhaust is located on the front of the
rim, as shown on the schematic. If the air intake or the exhaust is obstructed, the cooktop safeties will
either diminish the power output or shut down the unit.
Your cook-top must always breathe adequately. Make sure that the air inlet and its exhaust are not
obstructed.
The unit must not be installed above a washing machine, a refrigerator or a deep freezer box.
To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over heated surface units, cabinet storage space
located above the surface units should be avoided.
The unit must be installed such that it can be pulled without difficulty out of the cut-out for servicing or
cleaning.

We recommend that you should periodically check that there
are no objects (dust, paper, etc.) which could obstruct the air
inlet under your induction cooktop.
Although induction cooktop heat rejection is minimal and the
unit does not create any fumes in operation, such a unit must
be installed underneath a properly sized ventilation hood for
exhausting any smell, vapor and smoke created by cooking
itself.
Also, a proper downdraft system can be used for ventilation.
A minimum vertical clearance of 610 mm and a maximum 750
mm [between 24'' and 27'', a maximum 30"] is required
between the top of the cooking surface and the bottom of any
unprotected combustible material, such as cabinets, wooden
trim, etc.
In the back, leave a minimum of 10 mm [3/8"] between the
cooktop edge and the adjacent vertical surfaces (backsplash,
wall, high cabinets, etc.). This space is needed for the unit to
breath properly.
If a downdraft ventilation system is used, a minimum of 6 mm
(1/4") of clearance is required between the rear edge of the
cooktop and the downdraft snorkel.
Leave a minimum of 50 mm [2"] underneath the unit for the air
intake.
Opening for air outlet (at the front of unit): An opening of about
6 mm (1/4") and the same width as the unit must be cut in the
cabinet at front of the unit in order to allow the air and heat
emitted by the fans under the cooking elements to be
evacuated. This will allow the unit and components to not
overheat.
