INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

INSTALLATION

Location

The location of the range should be selected so proper illumination, freedom from drafts, and convenience to other appliances in the kitchen are obtained. Carefully level the range, using the leveling legs provided. The range must be level in order to assure uniform cooking and baking. A level or a large pan of water placed on an oven rack or on top of range can be used to level the unit. The range is to be installed flush to rear wall, and may be installed flush to side base cabinets. Spacing to vertical side wall above cooking surface 3" (as shown in Figure 2), 6" (as shown in Figure 3), for ranges with elevated ovens. Minimum distance to horizontal combustible surface above cooking surface is 30" and must be the width of the range. Maximum depth of cabinets installed above the range is 13".

It is the responsibility of the installer to comply with the installation clearances specified on the rating plate attached to the appliance.

NOTE: Clearance specified to combustible construction (walls and materials) are based on a temperature rise of wood structures resulting from appliance operation. These clearances are suitable for walls of studding, lath and plaster, or other types of combustible materials which have a density of 20 pounds per cubic foot or more. No evaluation of the clearances required has been made for installations adjacent to low density cellulose, fiber board, and similar materials which have a density of less than 20 pounds per cubic foot; nor to plastic tiles, or sheeting.

SECURE RANGE TO HOUSE STRUCTURE

For safety consideration means have been provided for this range, except one having an elevated oven, to be secured to th house wall behind the range, METHOD 1# (see Figure 5A). If the wall behind the range is solid wood or a vertical stud is available, a wood screw or lag bolt of sufficient length may be employed to secure the range. If the wall behind the range is not solid such as paneling or dry wall (sheet rock) construction use of a Molly Bolt is required. The anchor portion of the Molly Bolt should be of sufficient lenght to hold it securely to the building material. The thicker the material, the longer the anchor portion must be.
