CLEARANCE DIMENSIONS
For complete information in regard to installation
of free-standing, drop-in and slide-in ranges,
see figures 1 through 4 on pages 2, 3 and 4. For
SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS do not install a
range in any combustible cabinetry which is not
in accord with the installation clearances shown
in figure 1.
CAUTION: Some cabinets and building

MOBILE HOMES
The installation of a range designed for mobile home
installation must conform with the Manufactured Home
Construction and Safety Standard, Title 24 CFR, Part
3280 (formerly the Federal Standard for Mobile Home
Construction and Safety, Title 24 HUD, Part 280) or, when
such standard is not applicable, the Standard for
Manufactured Home Installations 1982 (Manufactured
Home Sites, Communities and Set-Ups), ANSI
A225. l-latest edition, or with local codes.
LOCATING THE RANGE
Place range in a well lit area. Do not set range over holes
in the floor or other locationswhere it may be subject to
strong drafts. Any opening in the wall behind the range
and in the floor under the range should be sealed. Make
sure the flow of combustion or ventilation air isnot
obstructed.

"A" = 30 inchesminimum clearance between the top of
the cooking surface and the bottom of an unprotected
woodor metal cabinet, or "A" = 24 inches minimum
when bottom of wood or metal cabinet is protected by
not less than 1/4-inch thick flame-retardant millbeard
covered with not less than No. 28 MSG sheet steel,

aluminum, or 0.020-inch thick copper.
To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over
heated surface units, cabinet storage space located
above the surface units shouldbe avoided. If cabinet
storage isto be provided, the risk can be reduced by
installing a range hood that projects horizontally a
minimum of 5 inches beyond the bottom ofthe cabinets.

ANTI-TIP DEVICE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: A risk of range tip-over existsif the appliance
is not installed in accordance with the provided installation
instructions. The proper use of this device minimizes the
risk of TIP-OVER. in using this device the consumer must
still observe the safety precautions as stated in the USE
and CARE MANUAL and avoid using the oven door
and/or lower drawer as a step stool.
installation instructions are provided for wood and cement
in either floor or wall. Any other type of construction may
require special installation techniques as deemed
necessary to provide adequate fastening of the ANTI-TIP
bracket to the floor or wall. The bracket may be installed
to engage the left or right rear levelingleg.
STEP 1 -Locating The Bracket (See Figure 5)
A. Determine where either the right or left "EDGE" of the
range will be locatedand mark the floor or wall.
B. Place the BRACKET 15/16" from the marked "EDGE"
toward center of opening and against the back wall,
as shown in figure 5, with orientation hole against
wall.
C. Use the bracket as a template and mark the required
holes, as shown infigure 5 for the type of construction
you will be using.
D. Free-standing and slide-m ranges may be secured to
either floor or wall. Drop-in range may only be
secured to slat in cabinet.
STEP 2 -Anti-Tip Bracket Installation
AWood Construction:
Floor: Locate the center of the two holes identified
in figure 5 as "HOLES FOR FLOOR". Drill a 1/8"
pilot hole in the center of each hole (a nail or awl
may be used if a drill is not available). Secure the
ANTI-TIP bracket to the floor with the two screws
provided. Proceed to Step 3.
2. Wall: Locate the center of the two holes identified
in figure 5 as "HOLES FOR WALL". Drill an
angled 1/8" pilot hole in the center of each hole as
shown in figure 6. (A nail or awl may be used if a
drill is not available). Secure the ANTI-TIP bracket
to the wall withthe two screwsprovided as shown
in figure 6. Proceed to STEP 3.
B, Cement or Concrete Construction:
1. Suitable screws for concrete construction can be
obtained at the hardware store. Drill the required
size hole for the hardware obtained into the
concrete at the center of the holes identified in
figure 5 as "HOLES FOR FLOOR". Secure the
ANTI-TIP bracket to the floor. Proceed to STEP 3.

ANTI-TIP DEVICE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
STEP 3-Range Installation
A. Free-standing and slide-inranges may be _nstalledby
one person. The drop-in requires two persons due to
adjusting leveling legs and making electrical
connection while range is suspended in cut-out.
B, Align the range to its designated location and slide it
back into position. Note: A minimum clearance of 1/4"
is required between the range and the leveling foot
that will engage the ANTI-TIP bracket, see figure 6.
CAUTION: Damage to the range may occur if range
is moved or lifted by grasping the main top or
backguard. (If equipped).
C. All slide-in and drop-in ranges are equipped with a
non lift-up top. All free-standing ranges with a glass
top are non lift-up. Coif tops are lift-up.
D. For SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS as well as optJraum
performance adjust the range sothat it is level. This
may be checked by placing a spirit level or a large
pan of water on the cooktop or the oven rack. If an ,
adjustment is required on free-standing, pull the range
forward, t_pthe range and rotate the leveling feet as
required. Slide-in and drop-in ranges require total
removal from cabinet before an adjustment can be
made.
E. To check the range for proper installation of the
anti-tip bracket: Use a flashlight and look underneath
the bottom of the range to see that one of the rear
leveling legs is engaged in the bracket slot.
F, Proceed with the remainder of the installation
instructions provided with the range.
NOTE: USE A MINIMUM OF (2) SCREWS
