** See Page 11, Step 1 for clearance requirements to the nailing flange
located at each side of the unit and any screw heads adjacent to it.
Wall Finishes / Surrounds / Mantels
NOTE: Combustible wall finish materials and/or surround materials
must not be allowed to encroach the area defined by the appliance
front face (black sheet metal). Never allow combustible materials to
be positioned in front of or overlapping the appliance face. See
Figure
6
and
Figure 44
on
Page 28.
Noncombustible materials, such as surrounds and other appliance trim,
may be installed on the appliance front face with these exceptions: they
must not cover any portion of the removable glass panel.
Vertical installation clearances to combustible mantels vary according to
the depth of the mantel (see
Figure 5
)
. Mantels constructed of noncom-
bustible materials may be installed at any height above the appliance.
Minimum clearance requirements include any projections such as shelves,
window sills, mantels, etc. above the appliance.
NOTE: To avoid heat-related finish damage, we recommend the use of high
temperature paint (rated 175° F or higher) on the underside of the mantel.
