NORMAL INSTALLATION STEPS
1. Anti=Tip Bracket Installation Instructions = IMPORTANT SAFETYWARNING
To reduce the risk of tipping of the range, the range must be secured to the floor with a properly installed Anti-Tip Bracket and screws packed with the range. 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.
If range is ever moved to a different location, the Anti-Tip
Bracket must also be moved and installed with the range.
Instructions are provided for installation in wood or cement
fastened to either the floor or wall. When installed to the wall, make sure that screws completely penetrate dry wall
and are secured in wood or metal. When fastening to the floor or wall, be sure that screws do not penetrate electrical wiring or plumbing.
la. Locate the bracket using the Anti-Tip
Template - (Bracket may be located on either the left
or right side of the range. Use the information below
to locate the bracket if Fig.4 template is not available).
Mark the floor or wall where left or right side of the range will be located. If rear of range is against the wall or no further than 1-1/4" from wall when installed, you may use the wall or floor mount method. If molding is installed and does not allow the bracket to fit flush against the wall, remove molding or mount bracket to the floor. For wall mount, locate the bracket by placing the back edge of the template against the rear wall and the side edge of template on the mark made referencing the side of the range (See Fig. 4). Place bracket on top of template and mark location of the screw holes in wall. If rear of range is
further than 1-1/4" from the wall when installed, attach bracket to the floor. For floor mount, locate the bracket by
placing back edge of the template where the rear of the range will be located. Mark the location of the screw holes, shown in template.
lb. Drill pilot holes & fasten bracket - Drill a 1/8" pilot hole where screws are to be located. If bracket is to be
mounted to the wall, drill pilot hole at an approximate 20° downward angle (See Fig. 5).
If bracket is to be mounted to masonry or ceramic floors,
drill a 3/16" pilot hole 1-3/4" deep. The screws provided

may be used in wood or concrete material. Use a 5/16" nut-driver or flat head screwdriver to secure the bracket in
place (See Fig. 6). 1c. Level and position range - Level range by adjusting
the (4) leveling legs with a wrench. NOTE: A minimum clearance of 1/8" is required between the bottom of the range and the leveling leg to allow room for the bracket. Use a spirit level to check your adjustments. Slide range back into position (See Fig. 7).
To check if the anti-tip bracket is installed properly, use both arms and grasp the rear edge of range back. Carefully attempt to tilt range forward. When properly installed, the range should not tilt forward. Refer to the anti-tip bracket installation instructions supplied with your range for proper
installation.
2. Electric connection requirements - This appliance must be properly installed and grounded by a qualified
technician in accordance with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70 -- latest edition -- and Local Electrical
Code requirements.
This appliance may be connected by means of "Permanent Wiring" or "Power Supply Cord Kit."
When installing Permanent Wiring, do not leave excess wire in range compartment. Excess wire in the range compartment may not allow the Rear Access Cover to be replaced properly and could create a potential electrical hazard if wires become pinched. Connect only as
instructed under"PERMANENTWIRE CONNECTIONS" in Step 4b. When using flexible conduit or range cable use
flex connector or range cable strain relief (See Fig. 10). 2a. Models with factory connected power supply cord.
Note: Some models may have a factory installed three (3) conductor power supply cord.
2b. For models requiring a power supply cord kit - RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRICAL SHOCK MAY OCCUR IF
AN INCORRECT SIZE RANGE CORD KIT IS USED, THE
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONSARE NOT FOLLOWED OR STRAIN RELIEF BRACKET ISDISCARDED.
This appliance may be connected by means of a power supply cord. Only a power supply cord kit rated at 125/250 volts minimum, and marked for use with ranges shall be used. See Fig. 9 for cord kit ampere rating information. Cord must have either three (3) or four (4) conductors. Terminals on end of wires must be either closed loop or open-end spade lugs with upturned ends. Cord must have strain relief properly installed. See step 4a for 2-Wire Power
