Location safety
WARNING
To reduce the risk of re, electric shock, personal injuries, and/or death, observe
the following precautions.
• This range is for indoor, household use only.
Do not install the range in areas exposed to the
weather and/or water.
• Do not install the range in a place which is
exposed to a strong draft.
• Select a level, well-constructed oor that can
support the range’s weight. Synthetic ooring,
such as linoleum, must withstand 180 °F (82 °C)
temperatures without shrinking, warping, or
discoloring. Do not install the range directly
over interior kitchen carpeting unless a sheet of
¼ inch plywood or a similar insulator is placed
between the range and carpeting.
• Select a location where a grounded, 3-prong outlet is easily accessible.
• If the range is located near a window, do not hang long curtains or paper blinds
on that window.
• For the range to ventilate properly, make sure the range’s vents are not blocked
or covered, and that there is enough clearance at the top, back, sides, and
underneath the range. The vents provide the exhaust outlets necessary for the
range to operate properly with correct combustion and deliver good cooking
results.
• Make sure the wall coverings around the range can withstand heat up to 200 °F
(93 °C) generated by the range.
