Clearance Dimensions

PROXIMITY TO SIDE CABINET INSTALLATION
· The cooktop may be installed directly to existing base cabinets.
· The cooktop 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 cooktop 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 cm) high countertop.
· Wall cabinet above the cooktop must be a minimum of 36″ (91.4 cm) above the countertop for a full width of the cooktop.
· If a ventilation hood is installed over the cooktop, the minimum 36″(91.4 cm) height clearance above the unit does not apply. Refer to the hood installation instructions for further information.

Clearance Dimensions

INTERIOR CABINET CLEARANCES INDUCTION COOKTOPS
IMPORTANT:The electronic components for the induction elements in the cooktop need air circulation. To ensure long life of electronic components, it is required that 1-1/2 (3.8 cm) or more open space remains between the bottom of the cooktop and any shelf underneath. The maximum length of the shelf or any other structures underneath is 18″ (45.7 cm). It is required that the exit air ports at the front are not blocked.
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 rangehood installation instructions for additional information. These dimensions provide for safe and efficient operation of the hood.
