INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (continued)

WARNING

All ranges can tip and injury could result.
To prevent accidental tipping of the range,
attach an approved Anti-Tip device to the
wai! and floor. {See Installing the Anti-Tip

Device in this section.)

To check if the device is installed and

engaged properly, remove the storage
drawer and inspect the rear leveling ieg.
Make sure it fits securely into the slot.

If you pull the range out from the wall

for any reason, make sure the Anti-Up
device is engaged when you push the

range back against the wall.

• For your safety, never use your range for warming or

heating the room. Your oven and cooktop are not
designed to heat your kitchen. Top burners should not
be operated without cookware on the grate. Such abuse
could result in fire and damage to your range and will
void your warranty.

• Do not store or use combustible materials, gasoline or

other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this
or any other appliance. Explosions or fires could result.

> Do not use oven for a storage area. Items stored in the

oven can ignite.

accumulate in or near the range.

GENERAL

• See the Dimensions and Clearances illustration in this

section for all rough-in and spacing dimensions. These
dimensions must be met for safe use of your range.

(see Gas Pipe and Electric Outlet Locations) may be
adjusted to meet specific requirements.

• The range may be placed with 0" (0 cm) clearance (flush)

at the back wall and at the side walls of the range.

LOCATION

Do not locate the range where it may be subject to
strong drafts. Any openings in the floor or wall behind

the range should be sealed. Make sure the openings

around the base of the range that supply fresh air for
combustion and venliiation are not obstructed by carpeting
or woodwork.

PROTECT YOUR FLOOR

Your range, like many other household items, is heavy
and can settle into soft floor coverings such as cushioned
vinyl or carpeting. Use care when moving the range on
this type of flooring. It is recommended that the following
simple and inexpensive instructions be followed to protect
your floor.

The range should be installed on a sheet of plywood

(or similar material). When the floor covering ends at the

front of the range, the area that the range will rest on

should be built up with plywood to the same ievel or
higher than the floor covering. This wilt allow the range
to be moved for cleaning or servicing.
