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.
Proper vent spacing for the Dual Fuel or Gas ranges is
automatically achieved when the rear of the range is
against the wall. If the resulting gap is obstructed, even
temporarily, the range and/or the surrounding cabinetry
could overheat, creating a fire hazard.
