INSTALLATION
BEFORE DELIVERY
In order to be able to install your range as soon as it is delivered, you must ensure that in your kitchen,
the electrical supplies are ready for it.
1. SAFETY REQUIREMENTS
1.1. VENTILATION
The use of an electric cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in the room in
which it is installed. It is essential that the kitchen where the ”La Cornue” warming drawers will be
installed has excellent ventilation to the outside, and a fresh air inlet.
Do not use air recycling systems.
Ventilation exhaust devices can be vapor aspirators or hoods.
1.2. CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION
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 beyond the bottom of the
cabinets.
A = 30 inches minimum clearance between the top of the
cooking surface and the bottom of an unprotected wood or metal
cabinet.
A = 24 inches minimum when bottom of wood or metal cabinet
is protected by not less than 1/4-inch-thick flame-retardant
millboard covered with not less than No. 28 MSG sheet steel,
0.015-inch-thick stainless steel, 0.024-inch-thick aluminum.
May be installed with zero clearance between adjacent combustible construction below the cooking
surface and the back and sides of the appliance.
We recommend to leave 1/2” gap on each side in order to allow enough space for moving the range.
To be used in conjunction with a suitable ventilation hood.
