iNSTRUCTiONS

• DO NOT step or sit on the door. Install the
Anti-Tip Bracket packed with range.

- The range could be tipped and injury might result

from spilled hot liquid, food, or the range itself.

& WARNING!

• NEVER reuse old flexible connectors. The use of

old flexible connectors can cause gas leaks and

personal injury. Always use NEW flexible

connectors when installing a gas appliance.

•Your range must be installed by a qualified
installer.

•Your range should be electrically grounded in
accordance with local codes or, in the absence of

local codes, in accordance with the National
Electrical Code (ANSI/NFPA 70, latest edition). In

Canada, electrical grounding must comply with the

current CSA C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code Part

1 and/or local codes. See "ELECTRICAL
CONNECTIONS" in this manual.

• Before installing your range on linoleum or any

other synthetic floor covering, make sure the floor
covering can resist 180°F(82°C) without shrinking,
warping or discoloring. Do not install the range
over carpeting unless a sheet of 1/4" thick

plywood or similar insulator is placed between the
range and carpeting.

• Make sure the wall coverings around the range

can resist heat generated by the range up to

200°F(93°0).

• Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted
according to the manufacturer's instructions.

- If the range is pulled away from the wall for
cleaning, service, or any other reason, ensure that
the Anti-Tip Device is properly reengaged when
the range is pushed back against the wall.

All ranges can tip and injury could result. To prevent
accidental tipping of the range, attach an approved
Anti-Tip device to the wall. (See "INSTALLING THE
ANTI-TIP DEVICE" in this manual.) To check if the
device is installed and engaged properly, carefully
tip the range forward. The Anti-Tip device should
engage and prevent the range from tipping over.

If you pull the range out from the wall for any
reason, make sure the Anti-Tip device is engaged
when you push the range back against the wall.

• Avoid placing cabinets above the range. To

minimize the hazard caused by reaching over the
open flames of operating burners, install a
ventilation hood over the range that projects
forward at least 5" beyond the front of the

cabinets.

• The ventilation hood must be constructed of sheet

metal not less than 0.0122" thick. Install above
the cooktop with a clearance of not less than 1/4"

between the hood and the underside of the
combustible material or metal cabinet.
The hood must be at least as wide as the

appliance and centered over the appliance.
Clearance between the cooking surface and

the ventilation hood surface MUST NEVER BE
LESS THAN 24 iNCHES.

EXCEPTION: installation of a listed microwave
oven or cooking appliance over the cooktop shall

conform to the installation instructions packed with
that appliance.

• if cabinets are placed above the range, allow a
