Installing Cabinetry Over Your Cooktop

A = 30" (76.2 cm) minimum clearance between the top of

the cooktop and the bottom of an unprotected wood or
metal cabinet.

A = 24" (60.96 cm) minimum when bottom of 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" (0.038 cm)
stainless steel, 0.024" (0.061 cm) aluminum or 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.

prevent damage from chipping.

2. Radius corners of cutout and file to insure smooth edges
and prevent corner cracking.

3. Rough edges, inside corners which have not been
rounded and forced fits can contribute to cracking of the

countertop laminate.

4. Countertop must be supported within 3" (7.62 cm) of
cutout.

Electrical Wiring Information

The neutral of this unit is grounded to the frame through the

solid copper grounding wire. If used on new branch-circuit
installations (1996 NEC), mobile homes, recreational

vehicles, or in an area where local codes prohibit grounding
through the neutral conductor, untwist or disconnect the
solid copper wire and connect the ground wire to ground in

accordance with local code. Connect the white neutral to
the service neutral. Connect all wires to the branch circuit

with approved connectors. Use copper or aluminum wire. If
aluminum wire is used, use connectors recognized for

joining aluminum to copper.

ProperElectricalSupply

You must provide an adequate electrical supply system as
required for your cooktop. All wire connections must be in

accordance with local codes and properly insulated. Check
with local utility for governing electrical codes and

ordinances. In the absence of local electrical codes, the

National Electrical Code, NFPA No. 70, governing electric
range installations must be followed. A copy of the National

Electrical Code, NFPA No. 70, can be obtained by writing
to:

National Fire Protection Association

Batterymarch Park

Quincy, Massachusetts 02269

A three-wire, single phase, A.C. 120/240 volt 60 cycle

electrical system (properly circuit protected to meet Local
Codes of NFPA No. 70) must be provided. Unit must be

properly grounded in accordance with local wiring code. The
chart below recommends the minimum circuit protector and

wire size if the appliance is the only unit on the circuit• If

smaller sizes of wire are used, the unit efficiency will be
reduced and a fire hazard may be created. It is advisable
that the electrical wiring and hookup be accomplished by a

competent electrician.
