Minimum clearances from adjacent combustible construction

•Above countertop (36" [91.4 cm])

•Sides—6” (15.2 cm)

•Rear—0” (0 cm)

•Within 8” (20.3 cm) 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 cabinet 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.

5.A 120-volt wall receptacle should be located approximately 6” (15.2 cm) below the countertop cutout and 12” (30.5 cm) from the right side of the cutout.

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.
