Install Anti-Tip Bracket

WARNING

Tip Over Hazard

A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.

Install anti-tip bracket to floor or wall per installation instructions.

Slide range back so rear range foot is engaged in the slot of the anti-tip bracket.

Re-engage anti-tip bracket if range is moved.

Do not operate range without anti-tip bracket installed and engaged.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious burns to children and adults.

1.Remove the anti-tip bracket that is taped in the oven cavity.

2.Determine which mounting method to use: floor or wall.

3.For wall mounting method only: Remove 30" (76.2 cm) wide by 4" (10.2 cm) high section of sheetrock, with the bottom of the area removed to be flush with the floor support slats. (See “Cabinet Dimensions” illustration in the “Location Requirements” section.) Securely attach a ³⁄₈" (1.0 cm) thick piece of plywood to at least two wall studs in place of the sheetrock. Plywood should span the width of the cabinet opening and sit flush with the top edge of the floor support slats.

4.Determine and mark centerline of the cutout space. The mounting bracket can be installed on either the left side or right side of the cutout. Position mounting bracket in cutout so that right (or left) edge of the bracket is 13¾" (34.9 cm) from centerline, as shown.

6.Using the Phillips screwdriver, mount anti-tip bracket to the support slat or the wall support board, depending on the chosen method of installation, with the two #12 x 1⁵⁄₈" screws provided.

Adjust Leveling Legs

1.If range height adjustment is necessary, use a wrench or pliers to loosen the 4 leveling legs.

This may be done with the range on its back or with the range supported on 2 legs after the range has been placed back to a standing position.

NOTE: To place range back up into a standing position, put a sheet of cardboard or hardboard in front of range. Using 2 or more people, stand range back up onto the cardboard or hardboard.

2.Adjust the leveling legs to the correct height. Leveling legs can be loosened to add up to a maximum of 1" (2.5 cm). A minimum of ³⁄₁₆" (5 mm) is needed to engage the anti-tip bracket.

NOTE: If height adjustment is made when range is standing, tilt the range back to adjust the front legs, then tilt forward to adjust the rear legs.

3.When the range is at the correct height, check that there is adequate clearance under the range for the anti-tip bracket. Before sliding range into its final position, check that the anti- tip bracket will slide under the range and onto the rear leveling leg prior to anti-tip bracket installation.
