*To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over heated surface units, cabinet storage space
located above the surface units should be avoided. If cabinet storage is to be provided, the risk can
be reduced by installing a rangehood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5" (127mm) beyond the
bottom of the cabinets.
