PREPARING THE OPENING (Continued)
The Standard Installation of this Drop-In Range is to hang
by the countertop on the side metal flang es under glass
cooktop. This Range must not be installed on a base or
sub structure (2”x 4” support).
If the construction of your cabinet cannot provide a
1/4” flat area at the back of the countertop opening,
consider changing the countertop to accommodate this
dimension. If the area is not flat, excess tension may
be applied to the glass cooktop, causing breakage and
voiding the warranty.
• Countertop thickness 1-1/4” min. is required to support the product. Braces must be installed between the
underside of the countertop and the cabinet if required to obtain 1-1/4” minimum thickness (each side).
• Make sure the wall coverings, counters and cabinets around the oven can withstand the heat (up to 200° F
(93.3° C) generated by the oven.
• This appliance has been approved for 0” spacing to adjacent surfaces above the cooktop. However, a 6”
minimum spacing to surfaces less than 15” above the cooktop and adjacent cabinet is recommended to
reduce exposure to steam, grease splatter and heat.
• Locate the wiring junction box at the rear of the cutout. The dimension from the top of the wiring junction
box to the countertop must be a minimum of 28-1/2”. The box must not extend more than 3” off the plane
of the wall. The junction box must be located where it will allow considerable slack in the range conduit, so
that the range can be pulled out for service if necessary.
