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): 7/8” (22 mm) or 3” (76 mm)
NOTE:
The 7/8” (22mm) backguard is already fitted
on the appliance while the 3” (76) backguard can be
purchased as a separate kit.
IT IS MANDATORY TO INSTALL AND USE THE
APPLIANCE WITH THE BACKGUARD CORRECTLY
IN PLACE.
Gas line opening:
Wall - 7/32” (6 mm) from the right side for
23” 9/16 (599 mm) towards the centre of range; from 8” 1/8
(207 mm) to 10” 1/8 (257 mm) [depending on feet regulation]
from the floor.
Grounded outlet:
The electric cord with 3-prong ground plug
(NEMA 5-15P) has a length of 72” (1830 mm). The grounded
outlet should be located 7/32” (6 mm) from the left side for
11” 13/16 (300 mm) towards the centre of range; from 8” 1/8
(207 mm) to 10” 1/8 (257 mm) [depending on feet regulation]
from the floor.
2. Range may be installed with zero clearance adjacent to
(against) combustible construction at the rear and on the
sides below the cooktop. 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 11” 13/16 (300 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 36”
(911 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.
4. Air curtain or other overhead range hoods, which operate
by blowing a downward air flow on to a range, shall not be
used in conjunction with gas ranges other than when the
hood and range have been designed, tested and listed by an
independent test laboratory for use in combination.
Additional information about minimum clearance from
cooking surface to overhead cabinet or ventilation hood:
•
36” (914 mm), overhead cabinet centered above the cooktop
(combustible/unprotected) (see also notes #1, #2, #3)
•
30” (762 mm), overhead cabinet centered above the cooktop
(non-combustible/protected) (see also notes #1, #2, #3)
•
30” (762 mm), ventilation hood centered above the cooking
surface (see also notes #4)
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.
Note #3
Non-combustible surfaces as defined in ‘National Fuel Gas
Code’ (ANSI Z223.1, Current Edition). Clearances from non-
combustible materials are not part of the ANSI Z21.1 scope and
are not certified by CSA.
Note #4
Refer to local/national codes for ventilation requirements.
