surface elements, cabinet
storage located above the

bottom of the cabinets. Cabinet
installation above the cooktop
may be no deeper than 13".

operate the appliance by a
person who accepts
responsibility for their safety.

interest to children in cabinets
above a cooktop – children
climbing on the cooktop to
reach items could be seriously
injured.
