Door removal is not a requirement for
installation of the product, but is an added
convenience. To remove the door:
Open the oven door as far as it will go.
Push both hinge
locks down toward
the door frame,
to the unlocked
position. This may
require a flat blade
screwdriver.
NOTE: The oven door is very heavy.
Be sure you have a firm grip before lifting the
oven door off the hinges. Use caution once the
door is removed. Do not lay the door on its
handle. This could cause dents or scratches.

Inspect cutout dimensions and location
of electrical junction box to be sure it fits
within the layout location. See page 4.
Refer to alternate construction section for
the following non-standard installations.
a. Counter opening extends to the wall:
Maintop Filler Kit (JXS66XX), or
Backguard Kit (JXS36XX or JXS39SS).
WARNING: If you do not use these
kits, the anti-tip bracket must fit under
an attachment to the wall that can
withstand a force of 200lbs. in the
upward direction. See Section D1.
b. Island Installation:
To provide an optimum installation, the
top surface of the countertop must be
level and flat (lie on the same plane)
around the 3 sides that are adjacent to
range cooktop. Proper adjustments to
make the top flat should be made or
gaps between the countertop and range
cooktop may occur. Forcing the cooktop
to fit may cause excessive gaps, or could
break the glass cooktop and void the
warranty.
Remove packing materials. Remove labels
on door, plastic on trims and
panel, and all tape around the range.
