Dacor DR30D Installation Instructions - Page 8

Planning the Installation Cabinet Layout • Carefully check the location where the range is to be installed. For best performance, the range should be placed away from drafts that may be caused by doors, windows and heating and air conditioning outlets. • To reduce the risk of personal injury and to reduce accumulated smoke in the room, Dacor strongly recommends installing a range hood. A range hood should project horizontally a minimum of five (5) inches beyond the face of the cabinets. • All maximum and minimum dimensions and clearances shown in the diagram below must be maintained for safe operation. • The range may be installed flush to the rear wall. A noncombustible rear wall is not mandatory, but Dacor highly recommends installing a non-combustible material from the countertop level up to the vent hood or installing the optional 9 inch backguard. • Any openings in the wall behind the appliance or in the floor underneath it must be sealed. Cutout tolerances: +1/16" (+1.6 mm), -0 Gas and Electrical Service • The shaded area shown below denotes the location of the gas inlet and the electrical junction box/receptacle. This is the recommended location. For replacement purposes, the location of the existing utilities may be utilized provided they do not interfere with the sides or rear of the range. Check local building codes for permissible utility connection locations. • An external manual shut-off valve must be installed between the gas inlet and the range for the purpose of turning on or shutting off gas to the appliance. The installation must allow for the following: • Access to the gas shut-off valve when the unit is installed. • Access to the remote circuit breaker panel or fuse box when the range is in place. • The gas supply piping, gas shut-off valve and the electrical junction box or receptacle must be located so they do not interfere with the range when it is installed. • The junction box and gas shut off valve must be located so that the range can be pulled out for service while the appliance remains connected.
