Distance to the range hood
The minimum clearance between the
appliance and a range hood above will
be listed by the hood manufacturer.
If there is more than one appliance in-
stalled below the range hood, each with
a different safety clearance, the largest
clearance must be used.
RBGDF Backguard
Depending on the model, you can ex-
change the existing island trim of your
appliance for a larger range backguard.
The backguard is available in the fol-
lowing heights: 12" (305 mm) and
20" (508 mm).
Installing the backguard
The rear of the rangetop must be ac-
cessible.
Install the backguard before connect-
ing the rangetop.
Loosen the screws of the island trim.
Pull back the island trim slightly until
it can be removed.
The backguard can be installed in re-
verse order.
