Model/serial rating plate location 36" (91.4 cm) cooktop model/serial rating plate location (models JIC4536 and KICU569) A A. Model/serial rating plate location Location Requirements Make sure you have everything needed for correct installation. It is the responsibility of the installer to comply with the installation clearances specified in these instructions. IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances. When installing cooktop, use minimum dimensions given. ■ To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over the heated surface units, cabinet storage space located above the surface units should be avoided. If cabinet storage is to be provided, the risk can be reduced by installing a range hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5" (12.7 cm) beyond the bottom of the cabinets. ■ It is the installer's responsibility to comply with installation clearances specified on the model/serial rating plate. The model/serial rating plate is located on the underside of the cooktop burner box. ■ Check the cooktop base for an approved installation label. Verify approved oven model numbers that can be installed with your cooktop model number. If you do not find this label, your cooktop may not be approved for use over an undercounter built-in oven. Contact your dealer to confirm that your cooktop is approved. ■ Ovens approved for this type of installation will have an approval label located on the top of the oven. If you do not find this label, contact your dealer to confirm that your oven is approved. Refer to oven manufacturer's Installation Instructions for approval for built-in undercounter use and proper cutout dimensions. ■ When installing cooktop over an undercounter built-in oven, do not fasten cooktop to countertop with clamps or seal cooktop to countertop. This will make the cooktop easier to remove if future servicing becomes necessary. ■ Use the countertop opening dimensions that are given with these Installation Instructions. Given dimensions are minimum clearances and provide 0" (0 cm) clearance. ■ Grounded electrical supply is required. See "Electrical Requirements" section. 2
