Make sure the wall coverings, countertop and
cabinets around the cooktop can withstand
heat (up to 200°F) generated by the cooktop.

If a 30
″
clearance between the cooking surface
and overhead combustible materials or metal
cabinets cannot be maintained, a minimum
clearance of 24

is required and the underside
of the cabinets above the cooktop must be
protected with not less than 1/4

insulating
millboard covered with sheet metal not less
than 0.0122

thick.
VERTICAL CLEARANCES (CONT.)
IMPORTANT:
To ensure long life of the
electronic components, allow a minimum of
12
″
free space for air circulation below the
cooktop bottom. (Except installation over a
single oven.) The cooktop bottom has air
intake ports toward the front that help cool
the components. Do not install a shelf or
partition beneath the cooktop that is more
than 18
″
deep.

Use a 36” or wider cabinet base.
VERTICAL CLEARANCES
Allow 12” minimum
vertical clearance
between the cooktop
bottom and any
combustible surfaces.
