For OTR over Gas Stove, please follow local GAS CODE.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
to install this appliance, refer to the following information,

Do not locate the range where it may be subject
to strong drafts.
Provide adequate clearances between the range and adjacent
combustible surfaces. These dimensions must be met for safe use of the range.
The location of the electrical outlet and gas piping may be adjusted to meet the
following dimensions and clearances.
For installation in Canada, a free-standing range is not to be installed closer than
4.7” (12 cm) from any adjacent surface.
CAUTION
This range has been designed to comply with the maximum allowable wood
cabinet temperature of 194 °F (90 °C). Make sure the wall covering, countertops,
and cabinets around the range can withstand the heat (up to 194 °F [90 °C])
generated by the range. If not, discoloration, delamination, or melting may occur.

WARNING
If overhead cabinets are provided, a range hood should also be provided that
projects horizontally a minimum of 5” (12.7 cm) beyond the front of the cabinets.
This will dissipate any heat buildup in the overhead cabinets to prevent death,
personal injury, and/or fire hazard. The ventilating hood must be constructed of
sheet metal not less then 0.0122” thick. Install above the cooktop with a clearance
of not less than 1/4” between the hood and the underside of the combustible
material or metal cabinet. The hood must be at least as wide as the appliance
and centered over the appliance. Clearance between the cooking surface and the
ventilation hood surface must never be less than 24”.
Exception
: Installation of a listed microwave oven or cooking appliance over the
cooktop shall conform to the installations packed with that appliance.
• 30” (101.6 cm) minimum clearance between the top of the cooking surface
and the bottom of an unprotected wood or metal cabinet; or If no 30” (101.6
cm) minimum clearance, 24” (61 cm) minimum when the bottom of the wood
or metal cabinet is protected by not less than 0.25” (0.64 cm) flame-retardant
millboard covered with not less than no. 28 MSG sheet steel, 0.015” (0.038 cm)
stainless steel, 0.024” (0.061 cm) aluminum, or 0.020” (0.051 cm) copper.
• 18” (45.7 cm) minimum between the countertop and the adjacent cabinet
bottom.
