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 instrutions
furnished with the hood.
Required Clearance
These instructions were determined using standard
American cabinets. Standard base cabinets measure 36"
(91.4 cm) high x 24" (61 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.
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 cabi-
net storage is to be provided, the risk can be redu-
ced 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 36" (91.4 mm) between the top of
the cooking surface and the bottom of an unprotected wood
or metal cabinet. The minimum clearance from the top of
the cooking surface and a vent hood or OTR microwave
hood is 30 inches (72.2 cm).
4,0 n
{10,2 cm
24" (61 cm) is acceptable when the bottom of the wood or
metal cabinet is protected by (a) not less than 1/4" (6.4
mm) of flame-retardant material which must be covered
with (b) not less than No. 28 MSG sheet metal, 0.015" (0.4
mm) stainless steel' or 0.024" (0.6 mm) aluminum or
copper.
No clearance is required from unit walls to adjacent vertical
combustible walls on rear, right or left.
Clearance from range top to adjacent vertical walls must be
at least 4" (10.2 cm).
Note: Some cabinet finishes cannot survive the
temperatures allowed by safety standards, particularly self-
cleaning ovens; the cabinets may discolor or stain. This is
most noticeable with laminated cabinets.
Avoid obstructing air flow
WARNING
Risk of fire - do not obstruct the vent space at the
rear of the range top. Do not caulk or otherwise seal
this opening.
The range requires a 1/8 inch (3 mm) opening to be left
open at the back of the range cooktop. This allows proper
airflow to occur. If this opening is sealed, the range and/or
surrounding cabinetry could overheat, possibly creating a
fire hazard.
