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.
