[_] PREPARE THE OPENING
. Allow 2" spacing from the range to adjacent vertical
walls above the cooktop surface. Allow 30" minimum
clearance between the surface units and the bottom
of unprotected wood or metal top cabinet, and 15"
minimum between the countertop and adjacent
cabinet bottom.
. To eliminate the risk of burns or fire when reaching
over hot surface elements, cabinet storage space
above the cooktop should be avoided. If cabinet
storage space is to be provided above the cooktop,
the risk can be reduced by installing a range hood
that protrudes at least S" beyond the front of the
cabinets. Cabinets installed above a cooktop may be
no deeper than 13".

Flooring under the range
Your range, like many other household items, is
heavy and can settle into soft floor coverings such
as cushioned vinyl or carpeting.
When moving the range on this type of flooring,
it should be installed on a 1/4" thick sheet of
plywood (or similar material) as follows:
When the floor covering ends at the front of the
range, the area that the range will rest on should
be built up with plywood
to the same level or higher than the floor
covering. This will allow the range to be moved
for cleaning or servicing.
