Avoid placing cabinets above the cooktop unit, if pos-
sible, in order to reduce the hazards caused by reach-
ing over heated surface units. If cabinets are placed
over the cooktop, the risks can be reduced by installing
a range hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5
inches beyond the bottom of the cabinets.
If cabinetry is used above cooktop, allow a minimum
30" clearance between the cooking surface and the
bottom of any unprotected cabinet,
If clearance between cooktop and cabinetry is less
than 30'; cabinet bottom must be protected with flame
retardant millboard at least 1/4" thick, covered with 28
gauge sheet steel or 0.020" thick copper. Clearance
between cooktop and protected cabinetry must
NEVER BE LESS THAN 24"
A 15" minimum must be kept from the side edge of
cooktop to the bottom of any cabinet not directly above
cooktop. If clearance is less than 15", adjacent cabi-
nets should be at least 6" from side edge of cooktop.
Preparing the Base Cabinet
This cooktop is designed to fit easily into a variety of
cabinets. However, some cabinets may require modi-
fications.
