Cooktop Clearance/Ventilation
This section provides information on cabinet clearances
and ventilation surrounding the cooktop.
Under-Counter Clearance
For proper ventilation, maintain:
• at least 5 3/4” (14.6 cm) clearance from the countertop to
any surface below (incl. upper edges of drawers)
• 1” (2.5 cm) minimum clearance between the vents on the
front of the chassis and the cabinet’s inside wall .
Insufficient ventilation between the cooktop and objects
beneath it may cause a fire hazard.
Under-Cabinet Ventilation
If the cooktop chassis is completely enclosed, provide ven-
tilation of at least 18 square inches into the enclosure.
Overhead Ventilation
To reduce smoke accumulation and the risk of personal
injury, Dacor strongly recommends installing a range hood
above the cooktop.
The hood should cover the cooktop entire surface and proj-
ect at least 5 inches beyond the bottom of any overhead
cabinets.
Miscellaneous Installation
This section contains various conditions you may encounter
during the installation process.
