If the countertop area is not flat, excess tension may be applied to the glass cooktop causing breakage
and voiding the warranty. 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. This appliance has been approved for 0
"
spacing to adjacent surfaces above the cooktop. However,
a minimum 6
"
spacing to surfaces less than 15
"
above the cooktop and adjacent cabinetry

at the back wall.
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
