Avoid obstructing air flow

The Duel Fuel range requires a 1/8 inch (3 mm) opening to
be left open at the back of the range cooktop. The Gas
range requires a 1/4 inch (6 mm) opening to be left open at
the back of the range cooktop. This allows proper airflow to
occur. If this opening is sealed, the range and/or
surrounding cabinetry could overheat, possibly creating a
fire hazard.

Prepare Walls and Floor

Seal any holes in the walls or floo. Remove any ob-
structions (extra electrical or gas connections, etc.) so that
range will rest against wall properly.

Countertop Requirements

Countertops must be smooth and level.

Installation Procedure

Installation of the anti-tip
bracket

The range can tip forward potentially causing injury and
damage if the anti-tip bracket is not installed. Do no operate
the range without the anti-tip bracket in place.

Steps to Install the Anti-Tip Bracket

1. Adjust height of range and level by rotating the

adjustable leg supports on the bottom of the range,
using a 1-1/4" wrench.

2. Position the bracket as shown below in the back left

corner of the installation opening, against the back wall
and the left cabinet wall. Mount the bracket using two
screws into either the floor or the base of the adjacent
cabinet. Note The mounting surface must be
secure.
When mounting to the cabinet wall make sure
the screws engage the frame of the cabinet, not the
thin wall of the cabinet only. Do not use a block or
spacer to fill a gap between the anti-tip bracket and the
cabinet wall.

3. Secure the bracket with two screws to the floor or to

the base of the cabinet wall. Depending on the floor or
cabinet material use wood or anchorless concrete
screws (included). Concrete screws require the use of
a 3/16" masonry bit. Screws should provide fim
attachment into solid wood or flooring. Do not attempt
to anchor into drywall.

9 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.

9 WARNING

A child or adult can tip the range
over and be killed.Verify that the
anti-tip bracket is securely
installed. Ensure the anti-tip
bracket is engaged when the
range is moved.
