Location Requirements

IMPORTANT: 

Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

 

It is the installer’s responsibility to comply with installation 

clearances specified on the model/serial/rating plate. The 

model/serial/rating plate is located behind the control panel.

 

To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over heated 

surface units, cabinet storage space located above the 

surface units 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" (12.7 cm) beyond 

the bottom of the cabinets.

 

Cabinet opening dimensions that are shown must be used. 

Given dimensions are minimum clearances.

 

The floor anti-tip bracket must be installed. To install the 

antitip bracket shipped with the range, see the “Install Anti-

Tip Bracket” section.

 

Grounded electrical supply is required. See the “Electrical 

Requirements” section.

IMPORTANT:

 To avoid damage to your cabinets, check with 

your builder or cabinet supplier to make sure that the materials 

used will not discolor, delaminate or sustain other damage. This 

range has been designed in accordance with the requirements 

of UL and CSA International and complies with the maximum 

allowable wood cabinet temperatures of 194°F (90°C).

Mobile Home - Additional Installation Requirements

The installation of this range must conform to the Manufactured 

Home Construction and Safety Standard, Title 24 CFR, 

Part 3280 (formerly the Federal Standard for Mobile Home 

Construction and Safety, Title 24, HUD Part 280). When such 

standard is not applicable, the Standard for Manufactured Home 

Installations, ANSI A225.1/NFPA 501A or with local codes.

Mobile home installations require:

 

When this range is installed in a mobile home, it must be 

secured to the floor during transit. Any method of securing 

the range is adequate as long as it conforms to the 

standards listed above.

 

Four-wire power supply cord or cable must be used in a 

mobile home installation. The appliance wiring will need to 

be revised. See the “Electrical Connection” section.
