ANTI-TIP DEVICE
1.Before placing range in the counter, notice the location of the stability bracket which is already attached to the back of the range. This location should work for most installations. However, it may
be more convenient to hook the stability chain to the unit when the stability bracket is attached to the upper set of holes in the back of the range. See Fig. A. The upper level set of holes are intended for

use with a backsplash kit. If the backsplash is not being used, make sure that there are no structural supports for the countertop which will interfere with the stability bracket when located in the upper set of holes.

the base of the wall or one of the studs in the base of the wall. See Fig. C. Whether you attach the chain to the wall or floor, be certain that the screw is in at least 3/4 inch thickness of wood other than baseboard and that there are no electrical wires or plumbing in the area which the screw could penetrate. Attach the stability chain in a location which will allow the chain to be in line with the bracket side to aide as much as possible when attached to the unit. Test to see if the chain is securely fastened by tugging on the chain.
3.Temporarily attach the loose end of the chain to the rear of the countertop with the tape from the packaging. See Fig. D.
4.Place the range in the counter cutout leaving just enough room between the back of the range and th wall to reach the stability bracket.
5.Hook the loose end of the chain onto the bracket by slipping the nearest link of the chain into the slot in the bracket. See Fig. A and make sure the chain is pulled as tight as possible and that there is no excess slack in the chain after the chain is attached to the bracket.
CAUTION: Excessive slack in the chain A could allow the range to tip over.
6.Slide the range all the way back into the counter. Once the range is uushed back in place, there wil be a small a~oun{of slack in the ~hain. This
is normal.
NOTE:
●If attaching to masonry, you can buy suitable screw and anchors at hardware stores. Use a masonry dril to drill the required holes.
●If range is removed for cleaning or any other reaso make sure chain is reattached.
