4 Kitchen Cabinet Construction
This is a fully integrated appliance which means that it is
fully enclosed by a kitchen cabinet. This type of cabinet
must be carefully constructed using the proper dimensions
and it must provide proper ventilation to ensure proper
appliance operation.
Make a separate kitchen cabinet
for each appliance for Side-bySide installations.
Consider having a professional install the appliance in your
kitchen cabinet.
- The top ventilation space can be either directly over the
appliance
Fig. 4 (3)
Fig. 4 (2)
, or through a vent installed in a soffit
or next to the ceiling over a cabinet
Fig. 4 (4)
.
4.1 Kitchen Cabinet Airflow
Fig. 5
- There must be a clear ventilation space (without any
obstructions) of at least 1-1/2 in. (38 mm) at the back of
the kitchen cabinet.
u
Observe the above ventilation dimensions.
Ventilation through the cabinet base at the bottom can be
achieved by installing the provided ventilation grille
