Cabinet Construction
To eliminate the risk of cabinet
burns and fire, do not have cabinet storage space
above the range. If there is cabinet storage space
above range, reduce risk by installing a range
hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5"
(12.7 cm) beyond the bottom of the cabinet.
Countertop Preparation
• The cooktop sides of the range fit over the
cutout edge of your countertop.
• If you have a square finish (flat) countertop,
no countertop preparation is required. Cooktop
sides lay directly on edge of countertop.
• Formed front-edged countertops must have
molded edge shaved flat 3/4" (1.9 cm) from
each front corner of opening (Figure 2).
• Tile countertops may need trim cut back 3/4"(1.9 cm)
from each front corner and/or rounded edge flattened
(Figure 2).

• If the existing cutout width is greater than
30-1116" (76,4 cm), reduce the s4" (1.9 cm) dimension.
Countertop must be level. Place a level on the
countertop, first side to side, then front to back. If the
countertop is not level, the range will not be level. The
oven must be level for satisfactory baking results. Cooktop
sides of range fit over edges of countertop opening.
