CLEARANCESC

To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over heated surface units, cabinet storage space located above the surface units should be avoided. If cabinet storage is to be provided, the risk can be reduced by installing a range hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5 in. (127 mm) beyond the bottom of the cabinets. See C, Page 2.

This unit is designed for installation in the counter top with zero clearance to adjacent walls and projecting surfaces constructed of combustible materials. A 30- inch minimum clearance is required between the top of the cooktop and the bottom of an unprotected cabinet. A 24 inch minimum distance is necessary when the bottom of the wood or metal cabinet is protected by not less than 1/4 inch of a flame retardant material covered with not less than No. 28 MSG sheet steel, 0.015 inch (0.4 mm) thick stainless steel, 0.024 inch (0.6 mm) aluminum, or 0.020 inch (0.5 mm) thick copper. Flame retardant materials bear the mark:
