ANTI-TIP DEVICE

WARNING

Tip-Over Hazard

A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.

Verify the anti-tip bracket has been properly installed and engaged.

Ensure the anti-tip bracket is re-engaged when the range is moved.

Do not operate the range without the anti-tip bracket in place and engaged.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious burns to children or adults.

shipped with the bracket for complete details before attempting to install.

Anti-Tip Bracket

Leveling

Leg

To reduce the risk of tipping the range, the range must be secured by a properly installed anti-tip bracket. See installation instructions

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 easy 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 rear leveling leg is under the anti-tip bracket.

If your range is removed for cleaning, servicing or any reason, be sure the anti-tip device is reengaged properly when the range is replaced. Failure to take this precaution could result in tipping of the range and can result in death or serious burns to children or adults.

Never completely remove the leveling legs or the range will not be secured to the anti-tip device properly.

Stove Top Grills

Do not use an after-market stove top grill on your gas

surface burners. A stove top grill will cause incomplete combustion resulting in carbon monoxide levels above allowable standards. This could be hazardous to your health.
