This counter unR must be installed with the
control knobs toward the front
edge
or the side.
Counter space must be provided for installation of
the counter unit. When choosing a location, consider
the following:

lighted with natural light during tile day.

reaching over heated surfi_ce units, cabinet
storage space located above tile surfi_ce units
should be avoided. If cabinet storage space
is to be provided, tile risk can be reduced by
installing a range hood that projects
horizontally a minim um of 5" beyond tile
bottom of tile cabinets. Cabinets installed
above tile counter unit may be no deeper than
13" and Inust be at least 30" above tile cooktop.

accuracy, it is best to make a template
when cutting the opening in the counte_: See
the ti)llowing illustration and chart tot all
necessary dinlensions.

maintained:
