To reduce the risk of tipping of the

range,therangemustbesecuredtotheoor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.
