Cabinet and Countertop Layout
WARNING
• To reduce the risk of personal injury caused by reaching
over a hot appliance, avoid locating cabinet storage space
directly above the cooktop.
• Failure to meet or exceed the maximum and minimum
dimensions/clearances stated in these instructions may
result in a fire hazard.
• Follow the countertop manufacturer’s instructions regarding
the minimum corner radius, use of heat reflective tape,
reinforcement of corners, etc.
◊ Carefully check the location where the cooktop will be installed.
For best performance, the cooktop should be placed away from
drafts that may be caused by doors, windows and heating and air
conditioning outlets.
◊ This appliance is to be used in conjunction with a suitable vent hood
or approved Dacor downdraft.

◊ Allow clearance for hold-down brackets.
◊ The gas supply piping, gas shut-off valve, and the electrical outlet
must be placed so they do not interfere with the cooktop when it is
installed.
◊ If installing another appliance in the cabinet below, allow for the
routing of gas and power behind it.
The installation must allow for the following:
◊ Access to the gas shut-off valve and regulator after the unit is
installed.
◊ That the 40-inch (101.6 cm) power cord must be able to reach
an electrical outlet, and that outlet must be accessable when the
cooktop is in place.
◊ Access to the underside of the cooktop for service and inspection
purposes.
◊ Clearance inside the cabinet to allow for proper hold- down bracket
installation.
◊ For access to the underneath of the cooktop, a fixed shelf should
not be installed below the cooktop.
