Cabinet Requirements This unit is designed for installation near adjacent walls and projecting surfaces constructed of combustible materials. Prepare the countertop and cabinets. Allow a minimum of 30" (76.2 cm) between cabinets where range is to be installed. No side clearance is required. Height is set by adjusting the range legs (see later section, "Complete the installation" on page 11). Note: The slide-in range can also replace a freestanding range. In this case, verify that the opening is at least 30" (76.2 cm). Install Ventilation Bosch strongly recommends the installation of a ventilation hood above this range. For most kitchens, a certified hood rating of not less than 300 CFM is recommended. The range hood must be installed according to instructions furnished with the hood. Required Clearance These instructions were determined using standard American cabinets. Standard base cabinets measure 36" (91.4 cm) high x 25" (63.5 cm) deep. Cabinets over the cooking surface and cabinets adjacent to those over the cooking surface measure 13" (33 cm) deep from backwall. If nonstandard cabinets are used, care should be taken to alter dimensions accordingly. 9 WARNING To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over heated surface units, cabinet storage space located above the surface units should be avoided. If cabinet storage is to be provided, the risk can be reduced by installing a hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5" (12.7 cm) beyond the bottom of the cabinet. From cooktop to materials above: • There must be a minimum clearance of 30" (762 mm) between the top of the cooking surface and the bottom of an unprotected wood or metal cabinet. • Bosch recommends the minimum clearances shown in the installation diagrams contained in this manual. Clearances from non-combustible materials are not certified by CSA. Clearances less than shown in the installation diagrams must be approved by local codes and/or by the local authority having jurisdiction. From the cooking surface to side materials: No clearance is required from unit walls to adjacent vertical combustible walls on rear, right or left. 9001126425 Rev A English 5
