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.

C

Remove the broiler drawer or kick panel.

 

See the Care and cleaning of the range

 

section. The front leveling legs can be

 

adjusted from the bottom and the rear

 

legs can be adjusted from the top or the

 

bottom.

D Use an open-end or adjustable wrench

 

to adjust the leveling legs until the range

 

is level.

7INSTALLTHE 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 WB02K10254.
