The range will not tip during normal use. However, the range can tip if you apply too much force or weight to the open door without the anti-
tip bracket fastened down properly.

Tip Over Hazard

A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.
Connect anti-tip bracket to rear range foot.

Reconnect the anti-tip bracket, if the range is moved.
See the installation instructions for details.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious burns to children and adults.

Anti-Tip Bracket

Range Foot

Making sure the anti-tip bracket is installed:

• Slide range forward.

• Look for the anti-tip bracket securely attached to floor.

• Slide range back so rear range foot is under anti-tip bracket.

iMPORTANT SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock,

injury to persons, or damage when using the range, follow

basic precautions, including the following:
[] WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF TIPPING OF

THE RANGE, THE RANGE MUST BE SECURED BY
PROPERLY INSTALLED ANTI-TIP DEVICES. TO CHECK

IF THE DEVICES ARE INSTALLED PROPERLY, SLIDE
RANGE FORWARD, LOOK FOR ANTI-TIP BRACKET
SECURELY ATTACHED TO FLOOR, AND SLIDE RANGE
BACK SO REAR RANGE FOOT IS UNDER ANTI-TIP

BRACKET.

[] WARNING: NEVER use this appliance as a space

heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in
carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the oven.

[] WARNING: NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages

in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack with materials
such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the

oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning.
Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a fire

hazard.

[] CAUTION: Do not store items of interest to children in

cabinets above a range or on the backguard of a range -
children climbing on the range to reach items could be

seriously injured.

[] Proper Installation - The range, when installed, must be

electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in

the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical

Code, ANSl/NFPA 70. Be sure the range is properly
installed and grounded by a qualified technician.

[] This range is equipped with a three-prong grounding plug

for your protection against shock hazard and should be

plugged directly into a properly grounded receptacle. Do
not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.

[] Disconnect power before servicing.
[] Injuries may result from the misuse of appliance doors or

drawers such as stepping, leaning, or sitting on the doors
or drawers.

[] Maintenance - Keep range area clear and free from

combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable
vapors and liquids.

[] Storage in or on the Range - Flammable materials should

not be stored in an oven or near surface units.

[] Top burner flame size should be adjusted so it does not

extend beyond the edge of the cooking utensil.

For self=cleaning ranges -
[] Before Self-Cleaning the Oven - Remove broiler pan and

other utensils. Wipe off all excessive spillage before
initiating the cleaning cycle.
