Installation Instructions

FOR YOUR SAFETY:

All rough-in and spacing dimensions must be
met for safe use of your range. Electricity to
the range can be disconnected at the outlet
without moving the range if the outlet is in
the preferred location (remove lower drawer).

To reduce the risk of burns or fire when
reaching over hot surface elements, cabinet
storage space above the cooktop should be
avoided. If cabinet storage space is to be
provided above the cooktop, the risk can 
be reduced by installing a range hood that
sticks out at least 5

beyond the front of the

cabinets. Cabinets installed above a cooktop
must be no deeper than 13

.

Be sure your appliance is properly installed
and grounded by a qualified technician.

ANTI-TIP DEVICE INSTALLATION

Before placing range in the counter, check the
factory location of the stability device on the
back of the range. For convenience you can
hook the stability chain in the upper set of
holes. Make sure there is no structural
interference when using the upper set of holes. 

Decide on a location 
that has no electrical
wiring or plumbing. 

With the long screw 
provided anchor the 
chain to the floor or wall. 

Make sure the
screw is going
into the wall plate
or stud at the 
base of the wall 
at least 3/4

Attach the stability chain so that it lines up
with the bracket on the back of the range. 

Tug the chain to make sure it is securely
fastened. 

Take the packaging
tape and temporarily
attach the loose end 
of the chain to the 
rear of the countertop. 

Slide the range 
into the counter
leaving enough
space behind to attach
the chain to the bracket.
