Instructions
These ANTI-TIP bracket installation
instructions are for wood or concrete
floors and walls. Any other type of
construction may require special
installation techniques to provide
adequate fastening of the ANTI-TIP
bracket to the floor and wall.
The use of this bracket does not
prevent tipping of the range when
bracket is not properly installed.
NOTE: The installation of the
ANTI-TIP bracket must meet all
local codes for securing appliance.
Step 1
Locating the bracket
A. Locate the bracket against the rear
wall and either the right or left
cabinet. If the countertop
overhangs the cabinet, offset the
bracket from the cabinet by the
amount of overhang. If there is no
adjacent cabinet, position the edge
of the bracket at the desired
location of the range side panel.

IMPORTA#TSAFETY
/#STRUCT/O#S
_ WARNING!
from abnormal use, including
excessive loading of the oven
door, attach the range to the
wall or floor by installing the
Anti-Tip device supplied. If the
range is moved for cleaning,
servicing or any reason, be
sure the Anti-Tip device is
re-engaged properly when
the range is slid back in the
opening. Failure to do so could
result in the range tipping and
may cause personal injury. To
inspect the Anti-Tip device,
remove the storage drawer and
look to see if the rear leg leveler
fully engages the slot in the
bracket.
Important: To ensure safety for
yourself, family, and home, please
read your Owner's Manual carefully.
Keep it handy for reference. Pay
close attention to Safety Sections.
BE SURE your appliance is installed
and grounded by a qualified
technician.
To prevent accidental
tipping of the range
iMPORTANT SAFETY
NOTICE!
The California Safe Drinking
Water and Toxic Enforcement Act
requires the governor of California
to publish a list of substances
known to the state to cause birth
defects or other reproductive harm
and requires businesses to warn
their customers of potential
exposure to such substances.
The fiberglass insulation in a
self-cleaning oven will give off a
very small amount of carbon
monoxide during the cleaning
cycle. Exposure can be minimized
by venting with an open door or
window or using a ventilation fan
or hood.
IMPORTANT: The health of
some birds is extremely sensitive
to the fumes given off during
the self-cleaning cycle of any
range. Move birds to another
well-ventilated room.
• DO NOT leave children alone
or unattended near an appliance
in use.
• TEACH CHILDREN not to play with
controls or any part of the appliance
and not to sit, climb, or stand on the
door or any other parts of the
appliance.
• CAUTION: NEVER STORE
items of interest to children on the
backguard or in cabinets above the
appliance. Children climbing on the
appliance could be seriously injured.
• KEEP THIS book for later use.
• NEVER TRY to repair or replace
any part of the appliance unless
instructions are given in this manual.
All other work should be done by a
qualified technician.
• NEVER USE your appliance for
warming or heating the room.
iMPORTANTSAFETY
iNSTRUCTiONS
• ALWAYS KEEP combustible wall
coverings, curtains, dishcloths,
towels, potholders and other linens
a safe distance from the appliance.
• NEVER HEAT unopened food
containers. Pressure buildup can
cause the container to burst and
cause injury.
• NEVER LEAVE containers of fat or
drippings in your oven.
• ALWAYS KEEP the oven and
surface unit areas free from things
that will burn. Food, wooden
utensils, and grease buildup could
catch fire. Plastic utensils could
melt and canned foods could
explode. Your appliance should
never be used as a storage area.
• ALWAYS KEEP your appliance
clear of things that will burn
(gasoline and other flammable
vapors or liquids).
• NEVER TRY toclean hot
surfaces.Some cleanersproduce
noxiousfumes, and wet clothsor
sponges couldcause steam burns.
• NEVER WEAR loose-fittingclothing
when usingyourappliance.
• NEVER USE a towelorotherbulky
clothas a potholder.Make surethe
potholderisdry.Moistpotholders
and wet clothsor sponges could
cause steam burns.DO NOT let
potholderstouch hotheating
elements.
• DO NOT touch heating elements,
surfaces near them, or interior oven
surfaces. These may be hot enough
to cause burns even though they
are dark in color. During and after
use, do not touch or let clothing or
flammable material contact the
elements or hot surfaces until they
have had time to cool. Other
surfaces near the oven vent
openings, oven door and window
and cooktop surfaces may also be
hot enough to cause burns.
• ONLY CERTAIN kinds of glass or
ceramic cookware can be used for
cooktop cooking. Make sure the
cookware you choose to use is
designed for cooktop cooking
without breaking due to the sudden
temperature changes.
• ALWAYS USE care when touching
cooktop elements. They will retain
heat after the range has been
turned off.
• NEVER BLOCK the oven air vent
under the right Fearelement.
• COOKWARE USED for cooktop
cooking should be flat on the bottom
and large enough to cover the heating
area being used. Undersized utensils
expose the heating element and may
result in direct contact or ignition of
clothing. The proper size utensil will
also improve efficiency.
• ALWAYS USE drip bowls to prevent
wiring and component damage. DO
NOT use aluminum liners or foil in drip
bowls. Improper use may result in risk
of electric shock or fire.
• NEVER LEAVE surface units
unattended at high settings. Boilovers
result in smoking or greasy spills
which could catch fire.
• ALWAYS TURN utensil handles
inward and away from other surface
units to reduce the risk of burns,
ignition, unintended contact, and
spillage.
• NEVER put heating elements in water.
• WHEN PREPARING flaming foods
under the vent hood, turn the fan on.

INSTRUCTIONS
* PLACE OVEN RACKS in the
desired position while the oven is
cook If racks must be moved while
oven is hot, do not let potholder
contact the hot oven element.
* AFTER BROILING, always take the
broiler pan and grid out of the oven
and clean them. Leftover grease in
the broiler pan could catch fire the
next time you use your oven.
* ALWAYS USE care when opening
the oven door. Let hot air and steam
escape before moving foods.
* NEVER USE aluminum foil to line
the oven bottom. Improper use of
foil could start a fire, or electrical
shock could result.
* CLEAN ONLY the parts listed
in this manual. Follow all cleaning
instructions. Be sure to remove
the broiler pan and grid before the
self-clean cycle.
* NEVER RUB, move, clean, or
damage the door gasket on self-
cleaning ranges. It is essential for a
good seal.
* NEVER TRY to clean utensils,
cookware, removable parts, or
broiler pan and grid in the self-
clean cycle.
* DO NOT USE oven cleaners -
No commercial oven cleaner or
protective coating of any kind
should be used in or around any
part of the oven.
• IF THE SELF-CLEANING mode
malfunctions, turn the oven off and
disconnect the power supply. Have
it serviced by a qualified technician.
_ CAUTION:
Never line the drip bowls
with aluminum foil. Foil
can block the normal heat flow
and damage the range.
Always use cookware and woks
that are flat on the bottom and
the same size as the cooking
element being used.
Cookware should not extend
more than 1" beyond the edge
of the cooking element.
READ AND UNDERSTAND
