8LEVELING THE RANGE

1.Remove the storage drawer or kick panel.

2. Use a 3/16″ open-end or socket wrench to back out both rear leveling legs approximately two turns.

3. Use a 13⁄8″ open-end or adjustable wrench to back out the front leveling legs two turns.

4. Install the oven shelves in the oven and position the range where it will be installed.

5.Check for levelness by placing a spirit level or a cup, partially filled with water, on one of the oven racks. If using a spirit level, take two readings—with the level placed diagonally first in one direction and then the other.

6.Adjust the leveling legs until the range is level.

7.After the range is level, slide the range

away from the wall so that the Anti-Tip device can be installed.

9 INSTALLING THE ANTI-TIP DEVICE

WARNING:

•Range MUST be secured with an approved Anti-Tip device.

•Unless properly installed, the range could be tipped by you or a child standing, sitting or leaning on an open door.

•After installing the Anti-Tip device, verify that it is in place by carefully attempting to tilt the range forward.

•This range has been designed to meet all recognized industry tip standards for all normal conditions.

•The use of this device does not preclude tipping of the range when not properly installed.

•If the Anti-Tip device supplied with the range does not fit this application, use the universal Anti-Tip device WB02X7909.

1.Mark the wall where the RIGHT EDGE of the range is to be located. Be sure to allow for the countertop overhang if you intend to install the range next to cabinets.
