REPLACING THE OVEN DOOR
NOTE: The oven door is heavy. You may need help lifting the door high enough
to slide it into the hinge slots. Do not lift the door by the handle
.
A. Lift the oven door by placing one hand on each side. The door is heavy,
so you may need help. Do not lift the door by the handle.
B. With the door at the same angle as the removal position (approximately
1"-2" from the closed position), seat the notch of the hinge arm into
the bottom edge of the hinge slot. The notch of the hinge arm must
be fully seated into the bottom of the slot.
C. Fully open the door. If the door will not fully open, the indentation
is not seated correctly in the bottom edge of the slot.
D. Push the hinge locks up against
the front frame of the oven cavity,
to the locked position.
E. Close the oven door.

REPLACE THE STORAGE DRAWER
A. Place the drawer rail on the guides. Push the drawer in until it stops.
B. Lift front of the drawer and push in until the stops clear the guides.
C. Lower the front of the drawer and push in until it closes.
Stop
SLIDE RANGE INTO OPENING
A. Position the range in front of the cabinet opening. Make sure that
the glass that overhangs the countertop clears the countertop.
If necessary, raise the unit by lowering the leveling legs.
B. Push while lifting the range into the opening, until the range
is within 2" of engaging the anti-tip bracket. Remove the protective
trim from the side of glass (if provided).
C. Using the adjustable pliers or wrench, carefully screw
in the back leveling leg until the glass overhang comes
to rest on the countertop. Then carefully screw in
the front two leveling legs until the glass overhang
touches the countertop.
D. Carefully push the range into the opening until
the countertop fully engages the control panel.
The back glass overhang should cover the cutout
opening. Plug the range cord into the receptacle.
Locate the cord in the back of the range in a manner
that it will not touch or be moved by the drawer.

ANTI-TIP DEVICE INSTALLATION
To reduce the risk of tipping the range, the range
must be secured by a properly installed anti-tip bracket.
See installation instructions shipped with the bracket
for complete details before attempting to install.
To check if the bracket is installed and engaged properly,
remove the storage drawer or kick panel and look under-
neath the range to see that the leveling leg
is engaged in the bracket. On models without a storage
drawer or kick panel, carefully tip the range forward.
The bracket should stop the range within 4 inches. If it does not, the bracket must be reinstalled.
If the range is pulled from the wall for any reason, always repeat this procedure to verify the range
is properly secured by the anti-tip bracket. Never completely remove the leveling legs or the range
will not be secured to the anti-tip device properly.

FINAL INSTALLATION CHECKLIST
• Check to make sure the circuit breaker is closed (RESET) or the circuit fuses are replaced.
• Be sure power is in service to the building.
• Check that all packing materials and tape have been removed. This will include tape on metal panel
under control knobs (if applicable), adhesive tape, wire ties, cardboard and protective plastic. Failure
to remove these materials could result in damage to the appliance once the appliance has been
turned on and surfaces have heated.
• Check that the door and drawer are parallel to each other and that both operate smoothly.
If they do not, see the Owner’s Manual for proper replacement.
• Check to make sure that the rear leveling leg is fully inserted into the anti-tip bracket
and that the bracket is securely installed.
OPERATION CHECKLIST
• Turn on one of the surface units to observe that the element glows within 60 seconds. Turn the unit
off when glow is detected. If the glow is not detected within the time limit, recheck the range wiring
connections. If change is required, retest again. If no change is required, have building wiring checked
for proper connections and voltage.
• Check that the oven control operates properly. If the oven control does not operate properly,
recheck the wiring connections.
• Be sure all range controls are in the OFF position before leaving the range.
