This manual contains important safety symbols and instructions. Please pay attention to these symbols and follow all instructions given.
This symbol will help alert you to situations that may cause serious bodily harm, death or property damage.
This symbol will help alert you to situations that may cause bodily injury or property damage.
Cold temperatures can damage the electronic control. When using the appliance for the first time, or when the appliance has not been used for an extended period of time, be certain the unit has been in temperatures above 32°F (0°C) for at least 3 hours before turning on the power to the appliance.
•Be sure your range is installed and grounded properly by a qualified installer or service technician.
•This range must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in their absence, with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70—latest edition in United States or with CSA Standard C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 in Canada.
•The installation of appliances designed for manufactured (mobile) home installation must conform with Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standard, title 24CFR, part 3280 [Formerly the Federal Standard for Mobile Home Construction and Safety, title 24, HUD (part 280)] or when such standard
is not applicable, the Standard for Manufactured Home Installation 1982 (Manufactured Home Sites, Communities and Setups), ANSI Z225.1/NFPA 501A-latest edition, or with local codes in United States and with CAN/CSA-Z240 MH in Canada.
•Make sure the wall coverings around the range can withstand the heat generated by the range.
•Before installing the range in an area covered with linoleum or any other synthetic floor covering, make sure the floor covering can withstand heat at least 90°F (32,2°C) above room temperature without shrinking, warping or discoloring. Do not install the range over carpeting unless you place an insulating pad or sheet of ¼" (0,64 cm) thick plywood between the range and carpeting.
Never leave children alone or unattended in the area where an appliance is in use. As children grow, teach them the proper, safe use of all appliances. Never leave the oven door open when the range is unattended.
Stepping, leaning or sitting on the door or drawer of this range can result in serious injuries and can also cause damage to the range.
•Do not store items of interest to children in the cabinets above the range. Children could be
seriously burned climbing on the range to reach items.
•To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over heated surface units, cabinet storage space above the surface unit should be avoided. If cabinet storage is to be provided the risk can be reduce by installing a range hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5 inches beyond the bottom of the cabinet.
•Do not use the oven as a storage space. This creates a potentially hazardous situation.
•Never use your range for warming or heating the room. Prolonged use of the range without adequate ventilation can be dangerous.
•Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids near this or any other appliance. Explosions or fires could result.
•Reset all controls to the "off" position after using a programmable timing operation.
Tip Over Hazard

Cabinet Construction |
6.1 To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over heated surface units, do not have cabinet storage space above the range. If there is cabinet storage space above range, reduce risk by installing a range hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5" (12,7 cm) beyond the bottom of the cabinet.
6.2 |
Countertop Preparation |
•The cooktop sides of the range fit over the cutout edge of your countertop.
•If you have a square finish (flat) countertop, no countertop preparation is required. Cooktop sides lay directly on edge of countertop.
•Formed front-edged countertops must have molded edge shaved flat 3/4" (1,9 cm) from each front corner of opening (Figure 7).
•Tile countertops may need trim cut back 3/4" (1,9 cm) from each front corner and/or rounded edge flattened (Figure 7).

7. Anti-Tip Brackets Installation |
|
7.1 |
Models Equipped with Leveling Device |
|
To reduce the risk of tipping of the |
range, the range must be secured to the floor by properly installed anti-tip bracket and screws packed with the range. These parts are located in the oven. Failure to install the anti-tip bracket will allow the range to tip over if excessive weight is placed on an open door or if a child climbs upon it. Serious injury might result from spilled hot liquids or from the range itself.
Follow the instructions below to install the anti-tip brackets.
If range is ever moved to a different location, the antitip brackets must also be moved and installed with the range.
Tools Required:
Adjustable Wrench Ratchet
Drill & 1/8" (0,32 cm) bit 5/16" (0,8 cm) Nutdriver Level
The anti-tip bracket attaches to the floor (or back wall) at the back of the range to prevent range from tipping.
When fastening bracket to the floor, be sure that screws do not penetrate electrical wiring or plumbing. The screws provided will work in either wood or concrete.
(CL = Center line)
Figure 8
1.Draw a center line (CL) on the floor where the range should be installed. Also draw a line on the floor at the range back position if there is no wall.
2.Unfold paper template and place it flat on the floor with the right rear corner positioned exactly on the intersection of the center and back lines you just drew before. (Use the diagram below to locate brackets if template is not available. (Figure 8))
3.Mark on the floor (or wall) the location of the mounting holes shown on the template. For easier installation, 3/16" (0,48 cm) diameter pilot holes 1/2"
(1,27 cm) deep can be drilled into the floor (or wall).
4.Remove template and place bracket on floor. Line up holes in bracket with marks on floor/wall and attach with screws provided. Bracket must be secured to solid floor or wall (Figure 9). If attaching to concrete floor, first drill 3/16" (0,48 cm) dia. pilot holes using masonry drill bit.
5.Be sure the 4 levelling legs are at the highest position they can be.
6.Slide range into place making sure structure of the range is trapped by the anti-tip bracket (Figure 9). Lower the range by adjusting the levelling legs until the underside of the cooktop is sitting level on the countertop. Refer to “Levelling the Range” section.
7.After installation, verify that the anti-tip bracket is engaged by grasping the top rear edge of the range and carefully attempt to tilt it forward to make sure range is properly anchored.
