Minimum clearances from adjacent combustible construction
•Above countertop (36” [91.4 cm])
•
•
•Within 6” side clearance; wall cabinets no deeper than 13” (33.0 cm)
•Must be minimum 18” (45.7 cm) above countertop
•Wall cabinets directly above cooktop must be minimum 36” (91.4cm) above the countertop.
1.The cooktop may be installed directly to existing base cabinets.
2.The cooktop cannot be installed directly adjacent to sidewalls, tall cabinets, tall appliances, or other side vertical surfaces above 36” (91.4 cm) high. There must be a minimum of 6” (15.2 cm) side clearance from the cooktop to such combustible surfaces above the 36” (91.4 cm) counter height.
3.Within the 6” (15.2 cm) side clearance
to combustible vertical surfaces above 36” (91.4 cm), the maximum wall cabinet depth must be 13” (33.0 cm) and wall cabinets within this 6” (15.2 cm) side clearance must be 18” (45.7 cm) above the 36” (91.4 cm) high countertop.
4.Wall cabinets above the cooktop must be a minimum of 36” (91.4 cm) above the countertop for a full width of the cooktop. This minimum height requirement does not apply if a hood
is installed over the cooking surface. The bottom of the hood should be 30” (76.2 cm) min. to 36” (91.4 cm) above the countertop. This would typically result in the bottom of the hood being 66” (167.6 cm) to 72” (182.9 cm) above the floor. Refer to the hood installation instructions for further information.
Warning
The use of cabinets for storage above the appliance may result in a potential burn hazard. If a cabinet storage is to be
provided the risk can be reduced by installing a hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5” (12.7 cm) beyond the bottom of the cabinets.
Important: The electronic components for the induction elements in the cooktop need some air circulation. To ensure long life of electronic components, it is required that a minimum of 8” (20.3 cm) open space remain between the bottom of the cooktop and any shelf underneath. The maximum length of the shelf underneath is 18” (45.7cm). There should be no partition or shelf directly underneath the unit. It is also required that the exit air ports at the rear are not blocked. There should be a minimum of
