4.1 Preparing The Cabinet
I
The minimum vertical distance to combustible material is 18"above the top of the range or slide-in. The
range or slide-in must be installed in accordance with Clause 5.6 of ANSI 1192.
For proper range or slide-in operation, the cabinet must:
• Be properly constructed.
• Be squared to the counter top and cabinet face.
For proper range or slide-in operation, the cabinet opening must:
• Be level from side-to-side and from front-to-rear.
• Be positioned so that combustible material cannot be placed next to the range or slide-in sides.
• Be free from gaps between the range or slide-in and any adjacent cabinet.
• Meet the minimum clearances to combustibles as described in "4.2 Cutting The Opening" on page 5.
• Provide direct current electrical supply conductors with strain relief at the range or slide-in.
• Be framed-in or guarded to prevent the creation of storage space around the recessed portion of the
appliance, except for the vent thimble.
• Have closed openings around the gas and electrical service outlets at the time of installation, except when
the construction of the range or slide-in provides the necessary closure.
