WARNING

The anti-tip device must be 

installed according to the 

instructions in your Use & 

Care Manual. Failure to do 

so may result in injury.

NOTE

If your appliance is placed with the door 

hinge side against a wall, you may have 

to allow additional space for the handle 

so the door can be opened wider.

This Use & Care Guide provides general 

operating instructions for your model. Use 

the appliance only as instructed in this 

Use & Care Guide. Before starting the ap-

pliance, follow these important first steps.

Guidelines for final positioning of  

your appliance:

•  All 4 corners of the cabinet must rest 

firmly on the floor.

•  The cabinet should be level at the 

front and rear.

•  The door should be level.

Setting the anti-tip bracket:

Models are equipped with an anti-tip 

bracket. The anti-tip brackets are located 

on the lower front corners of the cabinet. 

Lower the anti-tip on each side clockwise 

until they contact the floor. Do not raise 

the cabinet.

Location

•  Choose a place that is near a ground-

ed electrical outlet. Do Not use an 

extension cord or an adapter plug.

•  If possible, place the appliance out of 

direct sunlight and away from the range, 

dishwasher or other heat sources.

•  Install the appliance on a floor that is 

level and strong enough to support a 

fully loaded appliance.
