If you use the filler kit, place the metal filler piece supplied with the range to the back of the range as shown in the figure below. Start the 2 screws into the upper holes at the outside rear of the range above the louvers and through the slots in the trim, holding the filler piece centered on the maintop frame and pushing upward to close the gap between the bottom of the cooktop and the filler trim.

When the trim is set in the proper position, tighten the 2 mounting screws. The top of the trim should be located below the cooktop edge to prevent pots, pans and skillets from damaging the painted parts.
