ELECTRIC COOKTOP INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Cooktop Installation 1. All Ceramic-Glass Cooktops Visually inspect the cooktop for damage. Also make sure all cooktop screws are tight (see Figure 8). Screws Figure 8 Set the cooktop into the countertop cutout. NOTE: Do not use caulking compound; cooktop should be removable for service when needed. WARNING Do not remove the built in springs on the edges of the cooktop. These springs center the cooktop in the space provided. The cooktop must be centered to prevent excess heat buildup that may result in heat damage or fire (see Figure 9). The retainer brackets MUST be installed, to meet local codes or, in their absence, with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70-latest edition, or with CSA Standard C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 (see Figure 10).
