CAUTION
Clearance Dimensions (Wood/Composite Overlay)
• This range may be installed directly
adjacent to existing 36” (91.4 cm) high
base cabinets.
IMPORTANT: The side trim MUST be
3/8” (.95 cm) above the adjacent base
cabinet countertop. This can be
accomplished by raising the unit using
the adjustment spindles on the legs.
• Wall cabinets above the range must be a
minimum of 42” (106.7 cm) above the
range cooking surface for the full width
of the range. This minimum height
requirement does not apply if a range
hood is installed over the cooking surface.
The bottom of a standard hood should be
30” (76.2 cm) min. to 36” (91.4 cm) max.
above the countertop. This would typically
result in the bottom of the hood being
66” (167.6 cm) to 72” (182.9 cm) above the
floor. Refer to the range hood installation
instructions for additional information. These
dimensions provide for safe and efficient
operation of the hood.
• The range CANNOT be installed
directly adjacent to sidewalls, tall
cabinets, tall appliances, or other
side vertical surfaces above 36”
(91.4 cm) high. There must be a
minimum of 6” (15.2 cm) side
clearance from the range to such
combustible surfaces above the
36” (91.4 cm) counter height.
• Within the 6” (15.2 cm) side
clearance to combustible vertical
surfaces above 36” (91.4 cm), the
maximum wall cabinet depth
must be 13” (33.0 cm) and wall
cabinets within this 6” (15.2 cm)
side clearance must be 18”
(45.7 cm) above the 36”
(91.4 cm) high countertop.

WARNING
Measure the four corners in cutout area to
verify if flooring is level.
Move unit into opening.
For uneven or sloped floors, level unit with
metal shims only, as the adjustment required may
exceed the thread available in the leg.
Check that unit is level side to

must be 3/8” (0.95 cm) above countertop.
Set the high corner of range so that the top of side trim is
3/8” (0.95 cm) above countertop. Level range to high corner.
Anti-tip Device Installation
Tipping hazard.
To reduce the risk of the appliance
tipping, it must be secured by a
properly installed anti-tip bracket(s).
To make sure the bracket has been
installed properly, look behind the

Final Preparation
Reattach door to range.
Remove pins from hole in hinges.
Open door completely. Reattach hinge trim.
Close door.
• All stainless steel body parts should be
wiped with hot, soapy water and with a
liquid cleaner designed for this material.
If buildup occurs, DO NOT use steel wool,
abrasive cloths, cleansers, or powders!
If it is necessary to scrape stainless steel
to remove encrusted materials, soak with
hot, wet cloths to loosen the material, then
use a wool or nylon scraper. DO NOT use
a metal knife, spatula, or any other
material tool to scrape stainless steel!
Scratches are almost impossible to
remove.
Performance Checklist
A qualified installer should carry out the
following checks:
h
Check top surface elements—glow red
when turned on.
h
Check hot surface indicator lights—glow
red when corresponding element is on.
h
Check oven bake function—bake element
on full power, center and outside broil
elements at partial power.
h
Convection bake function—bake and broil
elements the same with the convection fan
on.
h
Check self-clean function—door will lock
in approximately 30 seconds, the center
and outside broil elements will turn on and
the bake element will turn on at partial
power. Check broil elements through
window to make sure they are on, then
abort self-clean cycle to unlock door.
When conducting performance test,
DO NOT run self-clean cycle for more
than 10 minutes with oven racks inside
oven. This could cause them to discolor
due to the high temperature required
for self-cleaning.
If the door needs to be adjusted, loosen hinge trim screws (see step 2).
Adjust the screws located between the door and kickplate using a 5/32”
hex head allen wrench. After adjustment, tighten hinge trim screws.
20
h
Check TruConvec™ function—TruConvec
element (behind convection fan cover) on
and convection fan on.
h Check HI broil function–both broil
elements at full power.
h
Check LOW broil function—inner broil
element only.
h
Check convection broil function—both
broil elements at full power with convection
fan on.
