• The cooktop may be installed directly to
existing base cabinets.
• 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 6” (15.2 cm) side clearance from
the cooktop to such combustible surfaces
above the 36” (91.4 cm) counter height.
• Within the 6” (15.2 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 6” (15.2 cm) side clearance must be 18”
(45.7 cm) above the 36” (91.4 cm) high
countertop.
• Wall cabinet above the cooktop must be a
minimum of 36” (91.4 cm) above the
countertop for a full width of the cooktop.
• If a ventilation hood is installed over the
cooktop, the minimum 36” (91.4 cm) height
clearance above the unit does not apply. Refer
to the hood installation instructions for further
information.
For Brazil/Mexico Only: It is recommended that a
removable shelf be installed under the appliance
after it has been fully installed to prevent
unintended access to the appliance during use.

INDUCTION COOKTOPS
IMPORTANT: The electronic components
for the induction elements in the cooktop
need air circulation. To ensure long life of
electronic components, it is required that
1-1/2 (3.8 cm) or more open space
remains between the bottom of the
cooktop and any shelf underneath. The
maximum length of the shelf underneath
is 18” (45.7 cm). It is required that the
exit air ports at the front are not blocked.

The bottom of a standard hood should be
30” (76.2 cm) min. to 36” (91.4 cm) max.
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 additional information. These
dimensions provide for safe and efficient
operation of the hood.
