Before You Start

• Soleil recommends that all undermount sinks be installed by an experienced, professional installer.

• IMPORTANT: The enclosed cutout template will create a countertop opening with a minimal (1/8” or less) reveal. It is recommended that you discuss with your installer and agree that the nished appearance is the desired effect. Soleil is not responsible for improper sink or countertop installations.

• IMPORTANT: The cabinet must be installed, secured, plumb, and level. Failure of this step can lead to product damage.

• Soleil undermount sinks should only be fastened to a solid surface countertop (i.e. granite, Corian® or Silestone®).

• Soleil is not responsible for sink or countertop if damaged during installation. Be sure to inspect the sink for damage prior to beginning installation.
