To reduce the risk of tipping the range, the range must

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

be secured by a properly installed anti-tip bracket. See

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

installation instructions shipped with the bracket for complete

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

details before attempting to install.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

To check if the bracket is installed and engaged properly,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

carefully tip the range forward. The bracket should stop the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

range within 4 inches. If it does not, the bracket must be

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

reinstalled. If the range is pulled from the wall for any reason,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

always repeat this procedure to verify the range is properly

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

secured by the anti-tip bracket.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

For free-standing or slide-in ranges, never completely remove

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the leveling legs or the range will not be secured to the anti-tip

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

device properly.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you did not receive an anti-tip bracket with your purchase,
