INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

STEP 1

PREPARE THE OPENING

⁄

″

spacing is recommended from the range to

adjacent vertical walls above cooktop surface.
Allow 30

″

minimum clearance between surface

units and bottom of unprotected wood or metal
top cabinet, and 15

″

minimum between

countertop and adjacent cabinet bottom.
EXCEPTION: Installation of a listed microwave
oven or cooking appliance over the cooktop shall
conform to the installation instructions packed
with that appliance.
To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching
over heated surface units, cabinet storage space
above the surface units should be avoided. If
cabinet storage is to be provided, the risk can be
reduced by installing a range hood that projects
horizontally a min. of 5

″

beyond the bottom of

the cabinets. Make sure the wall coverings,
countertops and cabinets around the range can
withstand heat generated by the range, oven or
cooktop up to 200°F.

TOOLS YOU WILL NEED

• Large blade screwdriver

• Channel lock pliers or small ratchet wrench
with 3/16

″

socket (for leveling range)

• 1/4

REMOVE HOUSE FUSE OR OPEN
CIRCUIT BREAKER BEFORE BEGINNING
INSTALLATION.
This appliance must be supplied with the proper
voltage and frequency, and connected to an
individual, properly grounded branch circuit,
protected by a circuit breaker or time delay fuse, as
noted on the rating plate.
Wiring must conform to National Electric Codes.

above specifications, it is recommended that a
