Installing cabinetry over the cooktop:

1. 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.

2. If cabinet storage is to be provided, the risk can be reduced by
installing a range hood that projects horizontally a minimum of
5" (12.7 cm) beyond the bottom of the cabinets.

3. A clearance of 30" (76.2 cm) minimum is required between the
top of the cooktop and the bottom of an unprotected wood or
metal cabinet.

4. A clearance of 18" (45.7 cm) minimum is required when the
bottom of a wood or metal cabinet is protected by not less than
1/4" (0.635 cm) FLAME RETARDANT millboard covered with not
less than No. 28 MSG sheet steel, 0.015" (0.28 cm) stainless
steel or 0.024" (0.061 cm) aluminum or copper.
