" (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.
If cabinet has a drawer, a 5¹⁄
8
" (13 cm) depth clearance from the
countertop to the top of the drawer (or other obstruction) in base
cabinet is required.
