GE ZGU385N Cooktop User Manual


 
ADVANCE PLANNING
Refer to “Installation Preparation” for
information on appropriate placement and
necessary clearances when planning
installation.
Avoid placing cabinetry directly above cooktop
when possible.
If cabinetry is used above cooking surface:
Use cabinets no more than 13deep.
Maintain 30minimum clearance between
cooktop and unprotected cabinets directly
above cooktop.
If clearance is less than 30, protect cabinet
bottoms with flame-retardant millboard at
least 1/4thick, or gypsum board at least
3/16thick, covered with 28 gauge sheet
steel or .02thick copper.
Clearance between cooktop and protected
cabinetry must not be less than 24.
An exhaust hood that projects at least 5
beyond front of cabinets can reduce risk
of burns caused by reaching over heated
surface units.
Working areas adjacent to the cooktop
should have 18minimum clearance between
countertop and cabinet bottom.
•A 36or wider exhaust hood with 350 CFM or
greater airflow rating is recommended for use
over this Monogram cooktop.
Installation must conform with local codes.
In the absence of local codes, the gas cooktop
must comply with the National Fuel Gas Code,
ANSI Z223.1, latest edition.
Gas supply should be located near the opening
for this cooktop (see Preparing the Opening and
Gas Connection sections of this manual). The
supply should provide natural gas at 7of water
column pressure (11of water column for LP
gas) and a maximum of 14of water column
for natural or LP gas.
The electric spark ignition feature for this
model requires a 120V electrical power supply
be located in the immediate vicinity of this
cooktop (see Electrical Connections section
of this manual).
