• TIPPING RANGES CAN CAUSE SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
• TO REDUCE THE RISK OF TIPPING OF THE RANGE, THE RANGE MUST BE
SECURED WITH A PROPERLY INSTALLED ANTI-TIP DEVICE.
• FAILURE TO PROPERLY INSTALL THE ANTI-TIP DEVICE INTO THE WALL COULD
RESULT IN THE DEATH OF A CHILD OR ADULT.
• Install the anti-tip device to the structure and/or the range. Verify the anti-tip device
has been properly installed and engaged by sliding the range back toward the
wall where both brackets have been secured, as outlined in the directions in the
Installation Manual.
• Engage the range to the anti-tip device by safely tilting the front of the range upward
slightly and moving it back to its final resting place, making sure the mounting pins slide
under both brackets.
• Ensure the anti-tip device is re-engaged when the range is moved by following the
same steps outlined above and in the Installation Manual. Re-engage the anti-tip
device if the range is moved. Do not operate the range without the anti-tip device in
place and engaged.
• Carefully pull on the range from the rear. If the brackets are installed correctly, the
range will not tip more than 4" (102 mm) from the wall. If it tips forward more than
4" (102 mm), the anti-tip device has not been installed correctly.

• Never completely remove the leveling legs or the range may not be secured to the
anti-tip device properly. NEVER step or sit on the door.
• The range will not tip during normal use. However, without a properly fastened anti-tip
bracket, the range can tip if too much force or weight is applied to the open door.
• See installation instructions for details. Failure to do so can result in death or serious
burns to children or adults.
