new flexible appliance conduit for connection of the

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" (12.7cm) beyond the
bottom of the cabinet.
| Caunferfop Preparation (figure 1)
° The cooktop sides of the range fit over the cutout
edge of your countertop.
° If you have a square finish [fiat) countertop, no
countertop preparation is required. Cooktop sides lay
directly on edge of countertop.
° Formed front-edged countertops must have molded
edge shaved fiat 3/4" (1.9 cm) from each front corner
of opening (Figure I).
° Tile countertops may need trim cut back 3/4"(1.9
cm) from each front corner and/or rounded edge
flattened [Figure 1).

Formed or tile countertop trimmed
¾" (1.9 cm) back at front corners
of countertop opening.

If the existing cutout width is greater than
30-1/16" (76,4 cm), reduce the 3¼" (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 wiii not be level.
The oven must be level for satisfactory baking results.

opening.

line can enter the cabinet [figure 2).
