Installation Instructions

Save these instructions for future reference.

For safety reasons curtains must not be fitted immediately behind the range.

We recommend a gap of 43-5/16” (110cm) (for Canada 44-5/16” (112.5cm)) between units to allow for moving the range.

If a fl ush fi t is required (USA only), fi t the range up to the unit at one side then fi t the unit the other side.

A clearance of 5” (13cm) is required if the range is near a corner of the kitchen to allow the oven doors to open.

Location guidelines

Do not locate the range where it may be subject to strong drafts. Any openings in the fl oor or wall behind the range should be sealed. Make sure the openings around the base of the range that supply fresh air for combustion and ventilation are not obstructed by carpeting or woodwork.

Your range is heavy and can settle into soft fl oor coverings such as cushioned vinyl or carpeting. Use care when moving the range on this type of fl ooring. It is recommended that the following simple and inexpensive instructions be followed to protect your floor.

The range should be installed on a sheet of plywood (or similar material). When the fl oor covering ends at the front of the range, the area that the range will rest on should be built up with plywood to the same level or higher than the

fl oor covering.

This will allow the range to be moved for cleaning or servicing. Also, make sure your

oor covering will withstand 180°F. (See the Installation Safety Instructions section.)

Make sure the wall coverings around your range can withstand the heat generated (up to

200°F) by the range. (See the Installation Safety Instructions section.)

Moving the Range

The range is very heavy. Take great care.

We recommend two people maneuver the range. Ensure that the fl oor covering is fi rmly attached, or removed to prevent it being disturbed when moving the range around. You will need the leveling tool.

Pull the drawer out to its furthest point.

Lift up the ends of the plastic clips (one each side) to release the catches holding the drawer to the side runners and at the same time pull the drawer forward and away from the side runners. For safety’s sake push the drawer runners back out of the way. Put the drawer somewhere safe

-do not refi t it until you have completed the installation, you will need access to the area behind the drawer.

Fit the leveling tool on the rectangular adjuster as shown below.
