Installation Instructions
WARNING!
ANTI-TIP DEVICE
All ranges can tip and injury could result.
To prevent accidental tipping of the range,
attach an approved Anti-Tip device to the
wall. (See Installing the Anti-Tip Device in this
section.) To check if the device is installed
and engaged properly, carefully tip the range
forward. The Anti-Tip device should engage
and prevent the range from tipping over.
If you pull the range out from the wall for
any reason, make sure the Anti-Tip 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.
■ Do not let cooking grease or other flammable
materials accumulate in or near 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 ventilation are not obstructed by carpeting or
woodwork.
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 level or
higher than the floor covering.
This will allow the range to be moved for cleaning
or servicing. Also, make sure your floor covering will
withstand 180°F. (See the Installation Safety Instructions
section.)
Make sure the wall coverings around your range can
withstand the heat generated (up to 200°F) by the range.
(See the Installation Safety Instructions section.)
IMPORTANT!
Remove all tape and packaging. Make sure the burners
are properly seated and level.
Lift up the cooktop (on models with standard twin
burners) and remove any packing material under it.
Take the accessory pack out of the oven and/or drawer.
Check to be sure that no range parts have come loose
during shipping.
