Dimensions and Installation Information (in inches)

Note:

To reduce the possibility of scorching the side walls above the countertop

when no load is present on burners, it is recommended that a minimum 6"

spacing from adjacent side wall be allowed for possible extended high-heat

element operation.

Receptacle Locations:

For all 30" Slide-In Ranges locally approved flexible

service cord or conduit must be used because terminals are not accessible

after range installation. See shaded area in drawing for location of electrical

outlet box. Recommended outlet locations allow range to be installed directly

against rear wall.

Installation information:

Before installing, consult installation instructions

packed with product for current dimensional data.

Minimum dimensions between cooktop, walls and above the cooktop:

A. Make sure the wall covering, countertop, flooring and cabinets around the range can

withstand the heat (up to 200°F) generated by the range.
B. Allow 30" minimum clearance between surface units and bottom of unprotected wood or

metal cabinet, or allow a 24" minimum when bottom of wood or metal cabinet is protected

by no less than 1/4" thick flame retardant millboard covered with not less than No 28 MSG

sheet metal, (.015"), .015" thick stainless steel, .024" aluminum or .020" copper. Acceptable

electrical outlet area. Orient electrical receptacle so the length is parallel to floor.
C. 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. To reduce the risk of burns or fire when reaching over hot surface elements,

cabinet storage space above the cooktop should be avoided. If cabinet storage space is

to be provided above the cooktop, the risk can be reduced by installing a range hood that

projects at least 5" beyond the front of the cabinets. Cabinets installed above the cooktop

must be no deeper than 13".

Note:

Use a 4'power cord to prevent

interference with unit when installing.
