GENERAL
See Dimensions and Clearances in this section
for all rough-in and spacing dimensions. These
dimensions must be met for safe use of your
range. The location of the electrical outlet and
pipe opening (see Gas Pipe and Electric Outlet
Locations) may be adjusted to meet specific
requirements.
The range may be placed with O“ clearance
(flush) at the back wall and side walls of
the range.
LO~TION
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 ventilation
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).
Men
the floor
coueying
en~
at the front of the
range,
the area
that the range will rest on should be built up with
plywood to the same level or higher than the
floor covering. This will allow the range to be
moved for cleaning or servicing.
