INSTALLATION
Ventilation Requirements
It is recommended that these rangetops be installed
in conjunction with a suitable overhead vent hood.
Due to the high heat capacity of this unit, particular
attention should be paid to the hood and ductwork
installation to assure it meets local building codes.
WARNING
Do not install this product with an air curtain hood
or other range hood that operates by blowing air
down on the cooktop. This airflow may interfere
with operation of the gas burners resulting in fire
or explosion hazard.
See below for the minimum clearance from the
cooking surface to any horizontal surface above
the rangetop. Failure to observe this clearance
may result in a fire hazard.
•
Installations without a hood require a 36"
minimum distance to any overhead combustible
surface.
Proper Location
•
If the unit is to be placed adjacent to cabinets,
the clearances shown in “Install Clearances” are
required. The same clearances apply to island
installations, except for overhead cabinets, which
must have a space wide enough to accept the
flared island hood.
•
The rangetop should not be recessed into the
cabinets beyond the edge of the front face. (See
“Product Dimensions and Clearances”.)
•
The maximum depth of overhead cabinets installed
on either side of the hood is 13" (330 mm).
Wall cabinets must be 18” (457 mm) above the
countertop.
•
There is a 36'' (914 mm) minimum clearance
required between the top of the cooking surface
and the bottom of an unprotected cabinet. A 30''
(762 mm) clearance can be used when the bottom
of the wood or metal cabinet is protected by not
less than 1/4'' (6 mm) of a flame retardant material
covered with not less than no. 28 MSG sheet steel,
0.015'' (0.38 mm) thick stainless steel, 0.024'' (0.61
mm) aluminum, or 0.02'' (0.51 mm) thick copper.
•
Non-combustible surfaces are defined in the
National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI Z223.1, curr. ed.).
Clearances from non-combustible materials are not
part of the ANSI Z21.1 scope and are not certified
by CSA. Clearances of less than 36 inches (914.4
mm) must be approved by local codes and/or by
the local authority having jurisdiction.
CAUTION
•
The rangetop must be level to operate
properly.
•
Avoid placing cabinets above the rangetop.
To minimize the hazard caused by reaching
over the open flames of operating burners,
install a ventilation hood over the rangetop that
projects forward at least five inches beyond the
front of the cabinets.
•
Do not locate your rangetop where it may
be subject to strong drafts. The left and right
side panels are 5 mm higher than the base of
the rangetop. Make sure that the sides of the
rangetop that supply fresh air for ventilation are
not blocked.
•
This rangetop is for indoor, household use
only.
•
If the rangetop is located near a window, do
not hang long curtains or paper blinds on
that window.
•
Make sure that the wall coverings,
countertop and cabinets around the
rangetop can withstand the heat (up to 194
°F) generated by the appliance.
Discoloration,
delamination or melting may occur. This
appliance has been designed to comply with the
maximum allowable wood cabinet temperature
of 194 °F.
