• All ranges can tip.

• Injury to persons could result.

• Install anti-tip device packed with

range.

• See Installation Instructions.

To reduce the risk of tipping, the range

must be secured by properly installed

anti-tip bracket provided with the

range. To check if the bracket is

installed properly, visually check that

rear leveling leg is inserted into and

fully secured by the anti-tip bracket by

removing lower front panel or storage

drawer from the range.

For models equipped with a warmer drawer or lower oven,

grasp the top rear edge of the range and carefully attempt

to tilt it forward. Refer to the installation instructions for

proper anti- tip bracket installation.

Remove all tape and packaging before using the range.

Destroy the carton and plastic bags after unpacking the

range. Never allow children to play with packaging

material.

Proper installation—Be sure your appliance is properly

installed and grounded by a qualified technician in

accordance with the National Electrical Code ANSI/

NFPA

No. 70 latest edition and local electrical code

requirements. Install only per installation instructions

provided in the literature package for this range.

User servicing—Do not repair or replace any part of the

appliance unless specifically recommended in the

manuals. All other servicing should be done only by a

qualified technician. This may reduce the risk of personal

injury and damage to the range.

Ask your dealer to recommend a qualified technician and

an authorized repair service. Know how to disconnect the

power to the range at the circuit breaker or fuse box in

case of an emergency.

• Never modify or alter the construction of a range by

removing the leveling legs, panels, wire covers, anti-tip

brackets/screws, or any other part of the range.

• Remove the oven door from any unused range if it is to

be stored or discarded.

• Do not attempt to operate the range during a power

failure. If the power fails, always turn off the range. If

the range is not turned off and the power resumes, the

range will begin to operate again. Once the power

resumes, reset the clock and oven function.

Stepping, leaning or sitting on the door or

drawers of a range can result in serious injuries and also

cause damage to the appliance. DO NOT allow children

to climb or play around the range. The weight of a child on

an open oven door may cause the range to tip, resulting in

serious burns or other injury.

Storage in or on appliance — flammable

materials should not be stored in an oven, near surface

units or in the storage drawer, warmer drawer or lower

oven. This includes paper, plastic and cloth items, such as

cookbooks, plasticware and towels, as well as flammable

liquids. Do not store explosives, such as aerosol cans, on or

near the range.
