Preparing the Countertop

It is important to plan ahead for installation of the

cooktop, keeping the following dimensions in mind.

(Please refer to Fig. A.)

• Maximum depth of overhead cabinets should

be 13 inches.

• Minimum height of the countertop above the

floor should be 36 inches.

• Minimum flat countertop surface that the

cooktop will rest upon must be equal to or

greater than the overall cooktop dimensions.

(Refer to page 8 for these dimensions.)

• Minimum clearance between the top of the

cooking surface and the bottom of an

unprotected wood or metal cabinet should be

30 inches. When the bottom of a wood or

metal cabinet is protected by not less than ¼

inch thick flame- retardant millboard covered

with not less than No. 28 MSG sheet steel,

0.015-inch-thick stainless steel, 0.024-inch-

thick aluminum or 0.020-inch-thick copper, the minimum clearance should be 24 inches.

• The distance from the backsplash of the countertop to the edge of the ceramic glass of the

cooktop should be a minimum of 2 inches. The distance from a side wall to the edge of the

ceramic glass of the cooktop should be a minimum of 1 inch. (Refer to page 1 for overall

cooktop dimensions).

CAUTION: Do not install the cooktop closer than 1 inch (25 mm) from any adjacent surface.

• To eliminate the risk of burns when reaching over heated surface units, avoid having cabinet

storage space located above surface units. If cabinet storage is to be provided, the risk can

be reduced by installing a range hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5" beyond the

bottom of the cabinets.

• Before making the countertop cutout, check for clearance. See if the cooktop will clear the

front and side walls of the base cabinet. It is also important to provide enough ventilation.

• Adequate ventilation of the space below the countertop must be provided to ensure proper

operation of the cooktop. Heat transferred from the cooktop bottom pan during operation will

overheat an improperly ventilated area.

• Allow a 2" (51mm) minimum clearance between the bottom of the metal pan of the cooktop

and any combustible surface located below, e.g., the upper edge of a drawer installed below

the cooktop. Failure to provide proper clearances and ventilation may result in a fire hazard.
