• Cabinetry can not be installed directly above

the cooktop.

• We recommend the installation of a vent

hood above the cooktop surface.

–The vent hood should be at least 24" deep.
–The vent hood should be the same width as

the cooktop.

–For 48" models, we recommend the vent

hood blower be 1200 CFM.

–For 36" models, we recommend the vent

hood blower be 600 CFM.

• Refer to hood installation instructions for

height dimensions.

• Working areas adjacent to the cooktop

should have 18" minimum clearance
between countertop and cabinet bottom.

• Clearance between cooktop and side wall or

combustible material must be at least 12" on
each side.

• These cooktops require 8" free space below

the countertop.

• If the cooktop is installed in an island:

–Allow 12" min. clearance at the back to

combustible materials.

–Allow 36" min. above the cooking surface to

combustible materials.

• Installation must conform with local codes.

In the absence of local codes, the gas
cooktop must comply with the National  Fuel
Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1-1990.
