ANTI-TIP DEVICE INSTALLATION
To reduce the risk of tipping the
range, the range must be secured by
a properly installed anti-tip bracket.
See installation instructions shipped
with the bracket for complete details
before attempting to install.
To check if the bracket is installed and
engaged properly, look underneath
the range to see that the rear leveling
leg is engaged in the bracket. On some models, the storage drawer or kick panel can be removed
for easier inspection. If visual inspection is not possible, slide the range forward, confirm the anti-
tip bracket is securely attached to the floor or wall, and slide the range back so the leveling leg is
under the anti-tip bracket. If the range is pulled from the wall for any reason, always repeat this
procedure to verify the range is properly secured by the anti-tip bracket. Never completely remove
the leveling legs or the range will not be secured to the anti-tip bracket.

FINAL INSTALLATION CHECKLIST
• Check to make sure the circuit breaker is closed (RESET) or the circuit fuses are replaced.
• Be sure power is in service to the building.
• Check that all packing materials and tape have been removed. This will include tape on metal
panel under control knobs (if applicable), adhesive tape, wire ties, cardboard and protective
plastic. Failure to remove these materials could result in damage to the appliance once the
appliance has been turned on and surfaces have heated.
• Check that the door and drawer are parallel to each other and that both operate smoothly. If they
do not, see the Owner’s Manual for proper replacement.
• Check to make sure that the rear leveling leg is fully inserted into the Anti-Tip bracket and that the
bracket is securely installed.
OPERATION CHECKLIST
• Check that the oven control operates properly. If the oven control does not operate properly,
recheck the wiring connections.
• Be sure all range controls are in the OFF position before leaving the range.
