Irregular Cabinet and Counter Top Heights

Counter tops such as ceramic tile tops can cause cabinet and counter top to be higher than 36 inches (91.4cm). Follow instructions below when counter top is higher than 36 inches (91.4cm).

1.Raise leveling legs to maximum level.

2.Measure from floor to range top. If measurement is less than height of counter top floor must be shimmed.

3.Shim floor using a piece of plywood same size as range opening. Secure plywood to floor. Plywood must be as secure as original flooring.

4.Install anti-tip bracket and slide range into place.

• See “Anti-tip Bracket Installation” section.

Line Voltage Requirements

Line voltage must not exceed rated voltage. Line voltage less than rated voltage will result in slow heating. Wiring system must conform to C.S.A standards and Canadian Electrical Code-latest edition. Installation must conform to all local, municipal and state building codes, and local utility regulations. Range must be connected only to a supply circuit as specified on range name plate.

This range requires 4 wires, 120/240 Volts, 60 Hertz A.C. See rating plate attached to range for kilowatt rating. House wiring and fusing must comply with local wiring codes. If no codes apply, wire according to Canadian Electrical Code-latest edition.
