Safety clearance above the cooktop
A minimum safety clearance must be
maintained between the cooktop and
the rangehood above it. See the
rangehood manufacturer's operating
and installation instructions for details.
If the manufacturer's instructions are
not available for the rangehood, a
minimum safety clearance of at least
760 mm must be maintained. For any
flammable objects, e.g. utensil rails,
wall units etc., a minimum clearance of
at least 760 mm must be maintained
between them and the cooktop below.
Safety clearances
When two or more appliances are
installed together below a
rangehood, e.g. an electric cooktop
and a gas wok combiset, which
have different safety clearances
given in the installation instructions,
you should select the greater
clearance of the two.
