Clearances & Dimensions Dimensions that are shown in figure must be used. Given dimensions provide minimum clear- ance. There needs to be a 30-inch minimum clearance between the top of the cooking surface and the bottom of unprotected wood or metal cabinets or a 24-inch minimum when bottom of wood or metal cabinets are protected by not less than a 1/4-inch flame retardant millboard cov- ered with not less than no. 29 msg sheet-steel, 0.015-inch stainless steel, 0.024-inch aluminum or 0.020-inch copper. To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over heated surface units, cabinet storage space located above the surface units should be avoided.
If cabinet storage is to be provided, the risk can be reduced by installing a range hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5 inches beyond the bottom of the cabinets. Be sure your range is installed and grounded properly by a qualified installer or service techni- cian. IMPORTANT: Before installing the range in an area covered with linoleum or any other synthetic floor covering, make sure the floor covering can withstand heat at least 90°F (32.2°C) above room temperature without shrinking, warping or discoloring. Do not install the range over carpeting unless you place an insulating pad or sheet of l/44nch (0.64cm) thick plywood between the unit and carpeting. WARNING:
All ranges can tip and injury to persons could result. • A child or adult can tip the range and be killed. • Anti-Tip stability devices are fixed on wooden plate. During the removing packag- ing materials, the Anti-Tip stability devices should be unscrewed from wooden plate and should not be thrown away. • A risk of tip-over may exist if the ap- pliance is not installed in accordance with these instructions. • If the range is pulled away from the wall for cleaning, service or any other reason, ensure that the Anti-Tip Device is properly re-engaged when the range is pushed back against the wall.
In the event of abnormal usage (such as a person standing, sitting or leaning on an open door), failure to take this precaution can result in tipping of the range. Personal injury might result from spilled hot liquids or from the range itself. Important notes to the consumer Keep this manual for future reference. As when using any range generating heat, there are certain safety precautions you should follow. These are listed in the front of this manual. Read and follow carefully. Be sure your range is installed and grounded properly by a qualified installer or service technician. To eliminate the need to reach over the cook top, cabinet storage space above the cook top should be avoided.
Important notes to the installer Read manual before installing the range. Observe all governing codes and ordinances. Be sure to leave these instructions with the consumer. 18/EN
