IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
For Your Safety
/l WARNING: Forpersonal
safety, remove house fuse or open
circuit breaker before beginning
installation. Failure to do so could result
in serious injury or even death.
All rough-in and spacing dimensions must be
met for safe use of your range. Electricity to the
range can be disconnected at the outlet without
moving the range if the outlet is in the preferred
location (remove lower drawer).
To reduce the risk of burns or fire when reaching
over hot surface elements, cabinet storage
space above the cooktop should be avoided. If
cabinet storage space is to be provided above
the cooktop, the risk can be reduced by installing
a range hood that sticks out at least 5" beyond
the front of the cabinets. Cabinets installed
above a cooktop must be no deeper than 13"
Be sure your appliance is properly installed and
grounded by a qualified technician.
A WARNING:Toreducethe
risk of tipping, the appliance must
be secured by properly installing
the Anti-Tip bracket packed with the
appliance.
=
If you pull the range out and away from the wall
for any reason, make sure the Anti-Tip bracket is
engaged when the range is pushed back against
the wall.

Inspect Installation Location
Refer to alternate construction section
for the following non-standard
installations.
a. Counter opening extends to
the wall:
Maintop Filler (supplied with the
range.) (See page 15, section AA,
for Installation Instructions) or
Backguard (Kit JXS37XX or
JXS32XX). See page 15.

d. Island Installation:
To provide an optimum installation,
the top surface of the countertop
must be level and flat (lie on the
same plane) around the 3 sides
that are adjacent to range cooktop.
Proper adjustments to make the
top flat should be made or gaps
between the countertop and range
cooktop may occur. Forcing the
cooktop to fit may cause excessive
gaps and could break the glass
and void the warranty.
