local codes, in accordance with the National
Electrical Code (ANSI/NFPA70, latest edition). See
Efectricof Connections in this section.
• Before installing gour range on linoleum or ang
other sgnthetic floor covering, make sure the floor
covering can withstand 180°F without shrinking,
warping or discoloring. Do not install the range over
carpeting unless a sheet of 3_/4"thick plgwood or
similar insulator is placed between the range and
carpeting.
• Make sure the wall coverings around the range can
withstand heat generated bg the range up to 200°F.
• Avoid placing cabinets above the range. To reduce
the hazard caused bu reaching over the open
flames of operating burners, install a ventilation
hood over the range that projects forward at least
5" beuond the front of the cabinets.
• The ventilating hood must be constructed of sheet
metal not less than 0.0122"thick. Install above the
cooktop with a clearance of not less than 1//4"
between the hood and the underside of the
combustible material or metal cabinet. The hood
must be at least as wide us the appliance and
centered over the appliance. Clearance between the
cooking surface and the ventilation hood surface
MUST NEVER BE LESSTHAN 24 INCHES.
EXCEPTION: Installation of o listed microwave oven
or cooking appliance over the cooktop shall conform
to the installation instructions packed with that
appliance.
If cabinets are placed above the range, allow a
minimum clearance of 30" between the cooking
surface and the bottom of unprotected cabinets.
If o 30" clearance between cooking surface and
overhead combustible material or metal cabinets
cannot be maintained, protect the underside of the
cabinets above the cooktop with not less than 1/4"
insulating millboard covered with sheet metal not
less than 0.0122" thick. Clearance between the
cooking surface and protected cabinets MUST
NEVER BE LESSTHAN 24 INCHES.
• The vertical distance from the plane of the cooking
surface to the bottom of adjacent overhead cabinets
extending closer than 1" to the plane of the range
sides must not be less than 18". (Seethe Dimensions
and Clearances illustration in this section.)
• CAUTION - Items of interest to children
should not be stored in cabinets above a range or
on the backsplash of a range-children climbing on
