• This range may be installed directly adjacent
to existing 36” (91.4 cm) high base cabinets.
IMPORTANT: The side trim MUST be
3/8” (.95 cm) above the adjacent base
cabinet countertop. This can be
accomplished by raising the unit using
the adjustment spindles on the legs.
• The range 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 range 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 cabinets above the range must be a
minimum of 42” (06.7 cm) above the range
cooking surface for the full width
of the range. This minimum height
requirement does not apply if a range hood
is installed over the cooking surface.
Note: Minimum clearance for back wall is 0”
with backguard or high-shelf.
Note: If a range hood is installed, wall cabinets above
the range have a different minimum clearance height.
Note: Clearances from non-combustible materials are
not part of the ANSI Z21.1 scope and not certified by
CSA. Clearances to non-combustible materials must be
approved by the authority having jurisdiction.
CAUTION
BURN HAZARD
To avoid risk of personal injury;
the use of cabinets for storage
above the appliance may result
in a potential burn hazard. Combustible
items may ignite, metallic items may
become hot and cause burns. If a cabinet
storage is to be provided the risk can be
reduced by installing a rangehood that
projects horizontally a minimum 5
" (12.7 cm)
beyond the bottom of cabinets.
