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 hood that projects
horizontally a minimum of 5 inches (12 cm) beyond
the bottom of the cabinet.
Verify that cabinets above the cooktop are a
maximum of 13" (330 mm) deep.
Important Notes
Do not install refrigerators, dish-washers, non-fan-
assisted ovens or fully integrated washing machines
beneath the cooktop.
If parts of the base of the cooktop can still be
touched after installation, an intermediate shelf
should be fitted. There should be a gap of at least
5
/
8
" (10 mm) between the intermediate shelf and the
lowest point of the cooktop or the electricity
connection terminal.
The work surface must be level and horizontal. The
stability of the work surface must still be guarateed
after the cut-out has been made. The work surface
must be sealed with the wall to protect against
damp.
