Cabinet and Countertop Layout
WARNING
To reduce the risk of personal injury caused by
•
reaching over a hot appliance, avoid locating
cabinet storage space directly above the cooktop.
To reduce the risk of a fire hazard, observe all
•
specified clearances.
The back edge of the cooktop must be located a
•
minimum of 2 1/4” (57mm) from any combustible
backsplash material. Special cabinet and
countertop dimensions may be required.
Follow the countertop manufacturer’s instructions
•
regarding the minimum corner radius, use of heat
reflective tape, reinforcement of corners, etc.
The cooktop is designed for a 24” (610 mm) minimum
•
base cabinet depth.
Carefully check the location where the cooktop will be
•
installed. For best performance, the cooktop should be
placed away from drafts that may be caused by doors,
windows and heating and air conditioning outlets.
Plan the installation so that all clearances shown below
•
are met or exceeded. Dimensions shown provide
minimum.

The gas supply piping, gas shut-off valve and the electrical
outlet must be located so they do not interfere with the
cooktop when it is installed. If installing another appliance
in the cabinet below, allow for the routing of gas and
electrical service behind it.
The installation must allow for the following:
Access to the gas shut-off valve and regulator when
•
the unit is installed.
Access to the electrical outlet when the cooktop is in
•
place. The 40” (1016 mm) power cord must be able to
reach the electrical outlet.
Access to the underside of the cooktop for service and
•
inspection purposes.
Clearance inside the cabinet to allow for proper hold
•
down bracket installation.
To allow access to the utilities and cooktop bottom, a fixed
shelf should not be installed below the cooktop.
