NOTE: After making the countertop cutout, some installations
may require notching down the base cabinet side walls to clear
the burner box. To avoid this modification, use a base cabinet
with sidewalls wider than the cutout.
If cabinet has a drawer, a 4" (10.2 cm) depth clearance from the
countertop to the top of the drawer (or other obstruction) in base
cabinet is required. The drawer depth may need to be shortened
to avoid interfering with the regulator and power cord.

Flush Installation Dimensions
All cooktops can be mounted with a frameless standard
installation sitting on top of the countertop surface or flush
with the top of the countertop. If the cooktop is to be mounted
flush with the countertop, a 11/64"-deep (4.3 mm) recessed
area surrounding the cooktop cutout must be provided with
the following dimensions.
NOTE: This option is not recommended for countertops with
a molded backsplash. Do not silicone seal in place.
