PROXIMITY TO SIDE CABINETS
1. This range may be installed directly adjacent to existing 36”
(914 mm) high base cabinets.
Range dimensions:
•
width: 35 7/8” (911 mm) (width of cabinetry opening 36”,
914 mm)
•
depth: 25” 1/4 (641 mm)
•
height (without backguard): MIN 35” 3/8 (898 mm) - MAX
37” 1/4 (946 mm)
•
backguard (height): 3” (76 mm)
•
island trim (height): level with cooking hob
Note: the island trim is supplied with the appliance while the
backguard can be purchased as a separate kit.
Grounded outlet:
The electric cord with 4-prong ground plug
(NEMA 14-50P) shall have a minimum length of 48” (1220
mm) beyond the back of the appliance. The grounded outlet
should be located 7/32” (6 mm) from the left or right side
for 35” 7/16 (899 mm) towards the centre of range; from 8”
1/8 (206.5 mm) to 10” 3/32 (256.5 mm) [depending on feet
regulation] from the floor.
2. The range CANNOT be installed directly adjacent to
sidewalls, tall cabinets, tall appliances, or other side vertical
surfaces above 36” (914 mm) high.
There must be a minimum of 2” (50 mm) side clearance from
the range to such combustible surfaces TO THE LEFT or TO
THE RIGHT above the 36” (914 mm) high countertop.
IMPORTANT: One side (left or right) above the 36” (914
mm) high countertop must always be kept clear.
3.
The maximum upper cabinet depth recommended is 13” (330
mm). Wall cabinet above the range must be a minimum of 30”
(762 mm) (see also “Additional information about minimum
clearance from cooking surface to overhead cabinet or
ventilation hood” here below) above the countertop for a
width of minimum 36” (911 mm): it has to be centered with
the range. Side wall cabinets above the range must be a
minimum of 18” (457 mm) above the countertop.
Additional information about minimum clearance from
cooking surface to overhead cabinet or ventilation hood:
•
30” (762 mm), overhead cabinet centered above the cooktop
(combustible/unprotected) (see also notes #1, #2)
•
24” (610 mm), overhead cabinet centered above the cooktop
(non-combustible/protected) (see also notes #1, #2)
•
24” (610 mm), ventilation hood centered above the cooking
surface (see also notes #3)
Note #1
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 rangehood that projects horizontally a
minimum of 5 “ (127mm) beyond the bottom of the cabinets.
Note #2
30” (762mm) minimum clearance between the top of the cooking
surface and the bottom of an unprotected wood or metal cabinet;
or 24” (610mm) minimum when bottom of wood or metal cabinet
is protected by not less than 1/4” thick flame retardant millboard
covered with not less than No. 28 MSG sheet steel, 0.015” (0.4
mm) thick stainless steel, 0.024” (0.6 mm) thick aluminum, or
0.020” (0.5 mm) thick copper.
