Cutout / Clearance Dimensions
WARNING BURN HAZARD
- The use of cabinets for storage above the appliance may result in potential burn hazard.
- Combustible items may ignite, metallic items may become hot and cause burns. If a cabinet storage is to provided the risk can be reduced by installing a range hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5″ (12.7 cm) beyond the bottom of the cabinets.
- This rangetop may be installed directly adjacent to existing 36” (91.4 cm) high base cabinets. IMPORTANT: The top grate support MUST be 3/8” (.95 cm) above the adjacent base cabinet countertop.
- The rangetop CANNOT be installed directly adjacent to sidewalls, tall cabinets, tall appliances, or other side vertical surfaces above 36” (91.4 cm) high. There must be a minimum of 6” (15.2 cm) side clearance from the rangetop to such combustible surfaces above the 36” (91.4 cm) counter height.
- Within the 6” (15.2 cm) side clearance to combustible vertical surfaces above 36” (91.4 cm), the maximum wall cabinet depth must be 13” (33.0 cm) and wall cabinets within this 6” (15.2 cm) side clearance must be 18” (45.7 cm) above the 36” (91.4
- Note: Based on 24” (61 cm) deep cabinet.
- Note: Minimum clearance for back wall is 0” with backguard or high-shelf.
- Note: If a range hood is installed, wall cabinets above the rangetop have a diff erent minimum clearance height
(Wood/Composite Overlay)
- The bottom of a standard hood should be 30” (76.2 cm) min. to 36” (91.4 cm) max. above the countertop. This would typically result in the bottom of the hood being 66” (167.6 cm) to 72” (182.9 cm) above the floor.
- Refer to the range hood installation instructions for additional information. These dimensions provide for safe and effi cient operation of the hood.
- Note: Minimum clearance for back wall is 0” with backguard or high-shelf.
- Note: 6” (15.2 cm) min. with island trim and combustible rear wall. 0” with island trim and non-combustible rear wall.
