D. Free-standing range may be secured to either floor or
wall.
STEP 2 - Anti-Tip Bracket Installation
Options
A. Wood Construction:
1. Floor: Locate the center of the two holes identified in figure 3 as “HOLES FOR FLOOR”. Drill a 1/8² (3 mm) pilot hole in the center of each hole (a nail or awl may be used if a drill is not available). Secure the ANTI-TIP bracket to the floor with the two screws provided. Proceed to Step 3.
2. Wall: Locate the center of the two holes identified in figure 3 as “HOLES FOR WALL”. Drill an angled 1/8² (3 mm) pilot hole in the center of each hole as shown in figure 4. (A nail or awl may be used if a drill is not available). Secure the ANTI-TIP bracket to the wall with the two screws provided as shown in figure 4. Proceed to STEP
3.
B. Cement or Concrete Construction:
1. Suitable screws for concrete construction can be obtained at the hardware store. Drill the required size hole for the hardware obtained into the concrete at the center of the holes identified in figure 3 as “HOLES FOR FLOOR”. Secure the ANTI-TIP bracket to the floor. Proceed to STEP

ANTI-TIP DEVICE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
STEP 3 - Range Installation
A. For safety considerations as well as optimum
performance, adjust the range so it is level and to desired height prior to installing in cabinet opening.
Levelness may be checked by placing a spirit level or a largepanofwateron thecooktopor ovenrack.Adjustthe rangeby tipping it forward or back and rotate the leveling feet as required.
Note: A minimum clearance of 1/4² (6mm) is required between the range andthe leveling foot that will engage the anti-tip bracket, (see figure 4).
Caution: Damage to the range may occur if range is moved or lifted by grasping the main top, backguard or
door handle. All free-standing ranges with a glass top have a non lift-up top. Coil tops are lift-up.
B. Align the range to its designated location and prepare
to slide it back into position. Connect power cord and plug into outlet following guidelines outlined in connecting the range.
C. Slide range into place visually inspecting to verify that
power cord is freely routed and contained behind range.
D. To check the range for proper installation of the anti-tip
bracket, use a flashlight and look underneath the bottom of the range to see that one of the rear leveling feet is engaged in the anti-tip bracket slot.

CONNECTING THE RANGE
ELECTRIC SUPPLY
The range must be installed in accordance with Local and National Electric Code (NEC) ANSI/NFPA No. 70-latest edition. See rating plate for total connected KW rating.
ELECTRIC SUPPLY (Canada)
The range must be installed in accordance with Local and Canadian Electric Code CSA STD.C22.1 latest edition. See rating plate for total connected KW rating.
OUTSIDE WIRING
Your local utility company will tell you whether the present electric service to your home is adequate. It may be necessary to increase the size of the wiring to the house and service switch to take care of the electrical load demanded by the range. The kilowatt rating for the range is specified on the rating plate located on front of range.
HOUSE WIRING
Most local Building Regulations and Codes require that all electrical wiring be done by licensed electricians. All wiring should conform to Local and National Electrical Codes. This range requires a single phase three wire 120/240 or a 120/208 volt, 60 Hz, AC circuit. Wiring codes require a separate circuit be run from the main entrance panel to the range and that it be equipped with separate disconnect switch and fuses, either in the main entrance panel or in a separate switch and fuse box. In some communities, a solid or flexible continuous armored conduit must be used from main entrance panel to the terminal box on the rear of the range. Others will permit the termination of the range circuit at a polarized three or four wire plug-in outlet placed at a convenient point near the back of the range. The range is then connected to this outlet through an approved range connector (pigtail) fastened securely to the terminal block with proper strain relief at the range and a three or four pronged plug at the opposite end.
by local code. USE COPPER OR ALUMINUM CONDUCTORS. Main terminal block is recognized for Copper or Aluminum conductors. If a flexible power cord is required, it is recommended a cord no longer than 4 ft. be used. Make connections as explained below and with reference to the appropriate illustration (see figures 6 and
7). After installation, insure tightness of all electrical connections and replace all covers.
Remove terminal block access cover from range back. (See figure 5).
