the weather and/or water.
• Do not install the range in a place which is
exposed to a strong draft.
• Select a level, well-constructed oor that can support the range’s weight.
Synthetic ooring, such as linoleum, must withstand 180 °F (82 °C)
temperatures without shrinking, warping, or discoloring. Do not install
the range directly over interior kitchen carpeting unless a sheet of ¼ inch
plywood or a similar insulator is placed between the range and carpeting.
• Select a location where a grounded, 3- prong outlet is easily accessible.
• If the range is located near a window, do not hang long curtains or paper
blinds on that window.
• For the range to ventilate properly, make sure the range’s vents are not
blocked, and that there is enough clearance at the top, back, sides, and
underneath the range. The vents allow the necessary exhaust for the range to
operate properly with correct combustion.
• Make sure the wall coverings around the range can withstand heat up to 194
°F (90 °C) generated by the range.
• Cabinet storage above the surface of the range should be avoided. If cabinet
storage above the range is necessary: allow a minimum clearance of 30 inches
(76.2 cm) between the cooking surface and the bottom of cabinets; or install a
range hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5 inches (12.7 cm) beyond
the bottom of the cabinets.
Cooktop safety
WARNING
To reduce the risk of re, electric shock, personal injuries, and/or death, obey the
following precautions.
• Make sure all burners are off when not in use.
