LOCATION OF YOUR JENN-AIR APPLIANCE
Locate this appliance away from combustible materials such as window
curtains and combustible wall decorations.
Minimum horizontal clearance between the edge of the appliance and
combustible construction extending from the cooking surface to 18² (45.72
cm) above the cooking surface is
1² (2.54 cm) at rear
4² (10.16 cm) at sides
(Dimensions apply to both 30² and 36² wide models)
INSTALLING CABINETRY OVER YOUR
JENN-AIR COOKTOP
A = 30² (76.2 cm) minimum vertical
clearance between cooking surface and
construction above the appliance. This
clearance may be reduced to not less
than 24 inches (60.96 cm) by protecting
the underside of the combustible material
or metal cabinet above the cooking
surface with not less than 1/4 inch (.635
cm) insulating millboard covered with
sheet metal not less than 0.0122 inch
thick*
B = 13² (33.02 cm) maximum depth of
cabinets installed above cooking top.
Avoid use of cabinets above cooktop for storage space to eliminate

PREPARATION OF COUNTERTOP
The countertop cutout must be prepared according to the illustration on
page 1 of these instructions.
CAUTION: Cutout dimensions are critical. Dimensions must be measured
and cut accurately to within + 1/16² (.159 cm) to ensure proper fit.
* Jenn-Air Over-the-Range microwave ovens (model #M418 and M438)
have been listed by UL for use over Gas and Electric Ranges. When
properly installed at a minimum height of 66 inches (167.64 cm) from the
floor to the top of the microwave, the clearance to the cooking surface at
the center will be 13-3/4 inches (34.93 cm).
IMPORTANT PREPARATION SUGGESTIONS
1. Chamfer all exposed edges of decorative laminate to prevent damage
from chipping.
2. Radius corners of cutout and file to insure smooth edges and prevent
corner cracking.
3. Rough edges, inside corners which have not been rounded and forced
fits can contribute to cracking of the countertop laminate.
4. Countertop must be supported within 3² (7.62 cm) of cutout.
