Installation Instructions
CABINET PREPARATION AND
CLEARANCES
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 in. (127 mm) beyond the bottom of the
cabinets. See C, Page 2.
This unit is designed for installation in the counter top
with zero clearance to adjacent walls and projecting
surfaces constructed of combustible materials. A 30-
inch minimum clearance is required between the top
of the cooktop and the bottom of an unprotected
cabinet. A 24 inch minimum distance is necessary when
the bottom of the wood or metal cabinet is protected
by not less than 1/4 inch of a flame retardant material
covered with not less than No. 28 MSG sheet steel,
0.015 inch (0.4 mm) thick stainless steel, 0.024 inch
(0.6 mm) aluminum, or 0.020 inch (0.5 mm) thick
copper. Flame retardant materials bear the mark:

SURFACE BURNING CHARACTERISTICS
Followed by the flame spread and smoke ratings., these
designations are shown as "FHC (Flame Spread)/
(Smoke Developed)". Materials with "O" flame spread
ratings are flame retardant. Local codes may allow other
flame spread ratings.
The minimum horizontal clearance from the sides and
back edge of the cooktop to the adjacent vertical
combustible walls is 0 Inches.

DIMENSIONS
The cutout dimensions depend upon whether the
installation is for replacement, new construction, or
installation in a solid surface countertop material, such
as Surell™, Corian
cutouts, use of heat reflective tape and rounded
corners. Drawings G and H provide some guidelines
only (see Page 4). Always consult the countertop
manufacturer for specific Installation Instructions.
