30" ELECTRIC SLIDE-IN RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

To avoid breakage: Do NOT handle or
manipulate the unit by the cooktop glass.

The counter-top around the cut-out should be flat and
leveled (see hatched area on illustration 1).

The metal flange under each side of the cooktop MUST be
placed over the cabinet countertop for proper unit support.
The glass cooktop should NOT directly touch the countertop
(see illustration 2) or could cause glass breakage voiding the
warranty. Level the unit if needed.

1

Before installing the unit, measure the heights of the two (2)
cabinet sides (H1-4), front and back (see illustration 1) from the
floor to the top of the counter.

frame should be at

least 1/16" taller

than cabinet sides as

measured in step 1.

Level the range using the
four (4) leveling legs so
that the height from the
floor to the underside of
the cooktop glass frame
is greater than the tallest
cabinet measurement
by at least 1/16" (see
illustration 2).

After the installation, MAKE SURE that the unit

is supported by the leveling legs NOT by the
cooktop.
