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 93˚C [200˚F]) generated by the range.

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 12.7 cm (5") beyond the front
of the cabinets. Cabinets installed above the cooktop must be no deeper
than 33 cm (13").
For all installations, install the required rear trim to back of range with 4 screws provided.
