Alternate Construction

AAOPTIONAL MAINTOP FILLER OR BACKGUARD KIT

If counter opening extends to the wall, it will require Maintop Filler Kit (supplied with the range) or Backguard Kit (JXS36XX or JXS39SS) to close the gap.

NOTE: If the countertop is greater than 25”, it will show a gap between the backguard and wall or between filler kit and the wall.

If the countertop is less than 25”, a gap will occur between the countertop front and the control panel ends (see section 11G on page 12).

If you are using the optional backguard kit, refer to the backguard kit instructions for installation details.

If you use the filler kit, place the metal filler piece supplied with the range to the back of the range as shown in the figure below. Start the 2 screws into the upper holes at the outside rear of the range above the louvers and through the slots in the trim, holding the filler piece centered on the maintop frame and pushing upward to close the gap between the bottom of the glass and the filler trim.

When the trim is set in the proper position, tighten the 2 mounting screws. The top of the trim should be located below the top surface of the glass to prevent pots, pans and skillets from damaging the painted parts.

Refer to the Standard Installation of the Range beginning on page 6.

The design of the GE JS905 is equally impressive, featuring a sleek stainless-steel finish that adds a modern touch to any kitchen. The front controls are intuitively designed, granting easy access to settings without having to reach over hot pots and pans.
