IMPORTANT:
For
proper
ventilation,
provide
a
vent
of
%e"
(5
mm)
under
the
countertop,
in
the
front
of
the
cabinet.
The
ventilation
opening
is
to
extend
the
full
length
of
the
cooktop
cutout.
See
the
following
illustration.
NOTES:
After
you
make
the
countertop
cutout,
some
installations
may
require
notching
down
the
base
cabinet
side
walls
to
clear
the
cooktop
base.
To
avoid
this
modification,
use
a
base
cabinet
with
sidewalls wider
than
the
cutout.
lf
the
cabinet
has
a
drawer,
a
51%"
(13
cm)
depth
clearance
from
the
countertop
to
the
top
of
the
drawer
(or
other
obstruction)
in
the
base
cabinet
is
required.
