NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS NOT TO SCALE.
Combustible materials may project beyond the sides of the fire-
place opening as long as they are kept within the shaded areas
illustrated here.
Hearth Extension - A hearth extension is not required with this appliance. If a hearth extension is
used, do not block the lower control compartment door. Any hearth extension used is for appearance
only and does not have to conform to standard hearth extension installation requirements.
Wall Finishes / Surrounds / Mantels
Note: Combustible wall finish materials and/or surround materials must not be allowed to encroach
the area defined by the appliance front face (black sheet metal). Never allow combustible materials
to be positioned in front of or overlapping the appliance front face. See Figure 57 on Page 31.
Non-combustible materials, such as surrounds and other appliance trim, may be installed on the
appliance front face with these exceptions: they must not cover any portion of the removable glass
panel or louvers.
Vertical installation clearances to combustible mantels vary according to the depth of the mantel.
See Figure 8. Mantels constructed of non-combustible materials may be installed at any height
above the appliance opening; however, do not allow anything to hang below the hood.

Appliance and Vent Clearances
The appliance is approved with zero clearance to
combustible materials on all sides (as detailed
in Table 8), with the following exception: When
the unit is installed with one side flush with a
wall, the wall on the other side of the unit must
not extend beyond the front edge of the unit.
