Clearances and Dimensions:
IMPORTANT
TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO CABINETS
• This range has been designed to comply with the maximum allowable wood cabinet
temperature of 194°F (90°C). Make sure the wall coverings, countertops, cabinets, and
any other materials in contact with the range are rated for a minimum of 194°F (9O°C).
lf not, discoloration, delamination, or melting may occur.
Before starting the installation process, confirm the installation space meets the
following dimensions and clearances. Do not locate the range where it may be subject to
strong drafts - seal any openings in the wall, floor, or cabinets in the installation space.
Provide adequate clearances between the range and adjacent combustible surfaces.
These dimensions must be met for safe use of the range. The given dimensions provide
minimum clearance. Contact surface must be solid and level.
The minimum clearance is 0" for the rear of the range. Follow all dimension requirements
to prevent property damage, potential fire hazard, and incorrect countertop and cabinet
cuts.
Countertop surfaces immediately around installation space must be flat and level for
proper installation.
This appliance must not be installed with a ventilation system that blows air downward
toward the range. This type of ventilation system may cause ignition and combustion
problems with the gas cooking appliance resulting in personal injury or unintended
operation.
When the floor covering (hardwood flooring, tile, carpet, etc.) ends at the front of the
range, the area that the range will be installed on must 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 and servicing, as well as provide proper air flow to the range.
Ensure floor covering material can resist temperatures of at least 167°F (75°C). Ensure the
wall coverings, countertops, cabinets, and any other materials in contact with the range
can resist the heat generated up to 194°F (90°C) by the range.
