Ovens approved for this type installation
will have an approval label located on

Check location where cooktop will be
installed. The location should be away
from strong draft areas, such as
windows, doors and strong heating
vents or fans. The cooktop should be
located for convenient use in the
kitchen.
Cooktop installed over oven installation:
Only certain specified cook-top and
oven models are approved for cooktop
over oven installations. Cooktops
approved for this type of installation will
have an approval label located on the
outside of the burner box. If you do not
find this label, contact your dealer to
confirm that cooktop is approved. The
Insert Sheet included with your literature
lists the cooktop and oven combinations
that are approved for this type of
installation.
When installing cooktop over a built-
under oven, Do Not fasten cook-top to
countertop with clamps. Cooktop then
will be easy to remove if servicing is
ever necessary.
It is the customer’s responsibility:
To contact a qualified electrical
installer.
To assure that the electrical installation
is adequate and in conformance with
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA
70 - latest edition**, or CSA Standards
C22.1-94, Canadian Electrical Code,
Part 1 and C22.2 No. O-M91 - latest
edition”’
and all local codes and
ordinances.
Injury
Hazard
To eliminate the risk
of
burns
or
fire,
avoid installing cabinet
storage above
the cooking
surface. If cabinets are
already installed, reduce the hazard of
reaching over a heated cooking
surface by installing a range hood.
The range hood should extend a
minimum of 5 inches (12.7 cm) out
from the bottom of the cabinets.
Reaching over a heated cooking
surface could result in a serious burn.
