(1)Screw in the levelling legs under the range. (2) Remove the racks and other utensils from the oven, and from the lower drawer. (3) Use adhesive tape to firmly secure the door and the drawer to the side panels. Also attach the electric power cord in the same manner. (4) Use a two-wheeled trolley with strap and fasten the range to it. Cover the appliance with a heavy blanket to prevent scratches and dents. (5) Avoid pulling or pushing the control panel when moving the appliance.
