All cooktops are same size. The distance to the front edge of the countertop, distance to a side wall or other combustible surface, location of electric supply and height to cabinets above cooktop varies depending whether the cooktop is gas or electric.

Cabinet construction: This appliance is designed for use in a base cabinet with a depth of 24”. The maximum depth for the overhead cabinets is 13”. The minimum vertical clearance between the cooking surface and the overhead depends on the type of overhead cabinets you have. (See Note, Page 2.) Overhead cabinets installed at either side of the appliance must be a minimum of 18” above the cooking surface. The minimum distance between the front edge of the countertop and the front edge of the cooktop is 3/4”. The minimum horizontal distance between overhead cabinets above appliances is the same as the width of the installed appliances.

When installing a cooktop under existing cabinets and the installation does not meet the minimum cabinet clearances, install a range hood above the cooktop.

Important: Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, observe the following:

Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated construction.

Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent back drafting. Follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s guideline and safety standards such as those published by the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.

When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
