Installation Near Heat Sources

1) BASE OVENS AND COOK TOPS
A 1" [25.4MM] WIDE FILLER ON EITHER SIDE, MOUNTED SO THAT THE FACE IS FLUSH WITH ADJOINING DOOR PARTS. THE SAME RECOMMENDATION APPLIES TO COOK TOPS WITH FRONT EXHAUST VENTS, FILLERS, SO MOUNTED, PROVIDE A BARRIER TO SHIELD EXCESSIVE RADIANT AND CONVECTIVE HEAT ASSOCIATED WITH THE DOOR SLIGHTLY OPENED, AS WELL AS, WITH OVENS EQUIPPED WITH SELF CLEANING FEATURES.

2) WALL MOUNTED OVENS
SIDE FILLERS AS MENTIONED IN SECTION 'A' ARE RECOMMENDED, IN ADDITION, A HORIZONTAL FILLER 1 1/2" [38mm] TO 2" [50.8mm] WIDE SHOULD BE PLACED ABOVE OVEN UNITS, WITH A 5/8" - 3/4" HORIZONTAL LIP, MOUNTED JUST BELOW THE DOORS, ABOVE THE UNIT, AGAIN FLUSH WITH, OR SLIGHTLY BEYOND, THE FACE SURFACE OF THE DOORS.

3) UNDERMOUNT COFFEE MAKERS
A 3/8 [9.5MM] TO 1/2"[12.7MM] BARRIER PLATE, MOUNTED FLUSH, OR PROTRUDING SLIGHTLY BEYOND THE FACE SURFACES OF DOORS ABOVE, THIS PRECLUDES POSSIBLE SURFACE DAMAGE AND SWELLING OF CORE MATERIAL FROM EXCESSIVE HEAT AND/OR STEAM.

4) COUNTER TOP APPLIANCES
CARE MUST BE TAKEN WHEN USING TOASTERS, TOASTER OVENS, PORTABLE GRILLS, AND OTHER HEAT/STEAM GENERATING APPLIANCES TO ENSURE THAT UPPER WALL DOORS ARE NOT SUBJECTED TO EXCESSIVE TEMPERATURES.
