clearances specified on the model/serial/rating plate. The
model/serial/rating plate is located on the frame behind a top
corner of the door or either side of the drawer.
� 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" (12.7 cm) beyond the bottom of
