Avoid obstructing air flow
A WARNING
Risk of fire - do not obstruct the vent space at the
rear of the range top. Do not caulk or otherwise seal
this opening.
Proper vent spacing for the Dual Fuel or Gas ranges is
automatically achieved when the rear of the range is
against the wall. If the resulting gap is obstructed, even
temporarily, the range and/or the surrounding cabinetry
could overheat, creating a fire hazard.
Prepare Walls and Floor
Seal any holes in the walls or floor. Remove any ob-
structions (extra electrical or gas connections, etc.) so that
range will rest against wall properly.
Countertop Requirements
Countertops must be smooth and level.
Installation Procedure
Installation of the anti-tip
bracket
A WARNING
A child or adult can tip the range
over and be killed. Verify that the
anti-tio bracket is securely
installed. Ensure the anti-tip
bracket is engaged when the
range is moved.
Removing Packaging
1. If straps are present, cut the straps.
2. Cut plastic down back of unit making sure not to cut the
unit.
3. Remove plastic film.
4. Lift cardboard around the top portion of the unit, off of
the unit.

posts or other packaging materials running between
corner posts are also removed.

The range can tip forward, potentially causing injury and
damage, if the anti-tip bracket is not properly installed. Do
not operate the range without the anti-tip bracket in place.
Steps to Install the Anti-Tip Bracket
1. Adjust height of range to match countertop height and
level it by rotating the adjustable leg supports on the
bottom of the range, using a 174" wrench.
2. Position the bracket as shown below in the back left
comer of the installation opening, against the back wall
and the left cabinet wall. Mount the bracket using two
screws into either the floor or the base of the adjacent
cabinet. Note: The mounting surface must be secure.
When mounting to the cabinet wall make sure the
screws engage the frame of the cabinet, not the thin
wall of the cabinet only. Do not use a block or spacer to
fill a gap between the anti-tip bracket and the cabinet
wall.
3. Secure the bracket with two screws to the floor or to
the base of the cabinet wall. Depending on the floor or
cabinet material, use wood or anchorless concrete
screws (included). Concrete screws require the use of
a 3/16" masonry bit. Screws should provide firm
attachment into solid wood or flooring. Do not attempt
to anchor into drywall.
