If your counter is produced from porous materials which tend to swell if in contact with humidity, and water, to
better protect the cut-out, use proper sea-lants on the edge which would prevent any penetration of humidity
and water.
Chamfer all exposed edges of decorative laminates to prevent further chipping.
Radius corners of the cut-out and file them to ensure smooth edges and prevent corner cracking.
Rough edges and inside corners which are not rounded as well as forced fits can contribute to cracking of
counter top laminate.

Attaching the hotplate
To prevent liquids from leaking accidentally into the underlying storage space, the appliance is equipped with
a special gasket. To apply this gasket, carefully follow the instructions in Fig. 3. Lay out the protective sealing
strips along the edges of the opening in the bench top and carefully overlap the strip end. (See Fig. 3). insert
the hotplate into the bench top opening. With a screwdriver assemble the brackets to the hotplate bottom by
means of the screws . (See Fig. 4A-4B). Slide the hooks into position and secure them with the screws.
Trim the part of the sealing strips which extend beyond the hotplate base
