o Before installing your range on linoleum or any other
synthetic floor covering, make sure the floor covering
can withstand 180°R without shrinking, warping or
discoloring. Do not install the range over carpeting
unless a sheet of l/4-inch4hick plywood or similar
insulator is placed between the range and carpeting.
o Make sure the wall coverings around the range can
withstand heat generated by the range up to 200°R

the hazard caused by reaching over the open flames
of operating burners, install over the range a ventila-

beyond the front of the cabinets
The ventilating hood must be constructed of sheet
metal not less than 040122 inch thick. Install above
the cooking top with a (_tearance of not less than 1/4

tered over the appliance° Clearance between the
cooking surface and the ventilation hood surface
MUST NEVER BE LESS THAN 24 INCHES.
o if cabinets are placed above the range, allow a mini-
mum clearance of 30 inches between the cooking
surface and the bottom of unprotected cabinets.
° if a 30-inch clearance between cooking surface and
overhead combustible material or metal cabinets
cannot be maintained, protect the underside of the
cabinets above the cooking top with not less than
1/4-inch insulating millboard covered with sheet
metal not less than 0.0122 inch thick.
o Clearance between the cooking surface and protect-
ed cabinets MUST NEVER BE LESS THAN 24
