WARNING
To avoid risk of burns or fire by reaching over heated
surface units, cabinet storage space located above
range should be avoided. If cabinet storage is to be
provided, the risk can be reduced by installing a
range hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5
inches (12.7cm) beyond the bottom of the cabinets.
Countertop Front Edge
Countertop front edge may require cutting to fit 31 inch
(78.74cm) rangetop. Allow for ½ inch (1.2cm) overlap
on each side.
Irregular Cabinet and Countertop Heights
Countertops such as ceramic tile tops can cause cabinet
and countertop to be higher than 36 inches (91.4cm).
Follow instructions below when countertop is higher than
36 inches (91.4cm).
1. Raise leveling legs to maximum level.
2. Measure from floor to rangetop. If measurement is
less than height of countertop floor must be
shimmed.
3. Shim floor using a piece of plywood same size as
range opening. Secure plywood to floor. Plywood
must be as secure as original flooring.
4. Install anti-tip bracket and slide range into place.
