•Do not try to light any appliance.
•Do not touch any electrical switch; do not use any phone
in your building.
•Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s
phone.
•Follow the gas supplier’s instructions.
•If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire
department.
3. Installation and service must be performed by a qualified
installer, service agency, or the gas supplier.
If not installed, operated and maintained in
accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions,
this product could expose you to substances in
fuel or from fuel combustion which can cause
death or serious illness and which are known to
cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive
harm.
For example, benzene is a chemical which is
part of the gas supplied to the cooking
product. It is consumed in the flame during
combustion. However exposure to a small
amount of benzene is possible if a gas leak
occurs. Formaldehyde and soot are byproducts of incomplete combustion.
Properly adjusted burners with a bluish
rather than yellow flame will minimize
incomplete combustion.

PROXIMITY TO SIDE CABINETS
1. The cooktop may be installed directly to existing base cabinets.
2. The cooktop CANNOT be installed directly adjacent to sidewalls, tall cabinets, tall appliances, or other side vertical
surfaces above 36” (91.4 cm) high. There must be a minimum of 8” (20.3 cm) side clearance from the cooktop to
such combustible surfaces above the 36” (91.4 cm) counter height.
3. Within the 8” (20.3 cm) side clearance to combustible vertical surfaces above 36” (91.4 cm), the maximum wall
cabinet depth must be 13” (33.0 cm) and wall cabinets within this 8” (20.3 cm) side clearance must be 18” (45.7 cm)
above the 36” (91.4 cm) high countertop.

WOOD/COMPOSITE OVERLAY INSTALLATION
The bottom of the hood should be 30” (76.2 cm) min. to 36” (91.4 cm) above the countertop. This would
typically result in the bottom of the hood being 66” (167.6 cm) to 72” (182.9 cm) above the floor. Refer to the
rangehood installation instructions for further information. These dimensions provide for safe and efficient operation
of the hood.
