Instructions

LOCATION GUIDELINES

Do not locate the range where it may be subject to strong drafts. Any openings in the floor 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.

Troubleshooting Tips

Yourrange, likemany other household items, is heavy and can settle into soft floor coverings such as cushioned vinyl or carpeting.Use care when moving the range on this type of flooring. It is recommended that the following simple and inexpensiveinstructions be followed to protect your floor.

The range should be installedon a sheet of plywood (or similar material).When the floor covering ends at the front of the range, the area that the range will rest on shouldbe built up with plywood to the same level or higherthan the floor covering.

This will allow the range to be moved for cleaning or servicing. Also, make sure your floor covering will withstand 180°F. (See the Installation Safety Instructions section.)

Make sure the wall coverings aroundyour range can withstand the heat generated (up to 200°F) by the range. (See the Installation Safety Instructions section.)

Consumer Support

IMPORTANT!

Remove all tape and packaging. Make sure the burners are properly seated and level. Take the accessory pack out of the oven.
