Behavior

This rule checks the minimum distance left and right around a cooktop (built-in and freestanding) on the worktop, in order to prevent the user from planning a dangerous kitchen.

It is triggered if the minimum distance to the worktop left and right of the cooktop area is less than the distance parameter. The application recommends to modify these dimensions.
