NOTE: After making the countertop cutout, some installations
may require notching down the base cabinet side walls to clear

sidewalls wider than the cutout.
If cabinet has a drawer, a 4" (10.2 cm) depth clearance from the
countertop to the top of the drawer (or other obstruction) in base
cabinet is required. The drawer depth may need to be shortened
to avoid interfering with the regulator.
If installing a hood above the cooktop, follow the hood
instructions for dimensional clearances above the cooktop
surface.
