LEVELING THE RANGE

A.

Install the oven shelves in the oven and position the
range where it will be installed.

B.

Check for levelness by placing a spirit level or a cup,
partially filled with water, on one of the oven shelves.
If using a spirit level, take two readings—with the level
placed diagonally first in one direction and then
the other.

C.

Remove the storage drawer or kick panel. See the Care
and cleaning of the range section. The front leveling legs
can be adjusted from the bottom and the rear legs can
be adjusted from the top or the bottom.

D.

Use an open-end or adjustable wrench to adjust the
leveling legs until the range is level.

E.

After the range is level, slide the range away from the
wall so that the Anti-Tip device can be installed.

Installation Instructions

ADJUST BROIL AND OVEN
BURNER AIR ADJUSTMENT
SHUTTERS IF NECESSARY

Air adjustment shutters for the top and bottom burners
regulate the flow of air to the flames.

The air adjustment shutter for the top (broil) burner is
in the center of the rear wall of the oven.

The shutter for the bottom (oven) burner is near the back
wall behind the warming drawer, storage drawer or kick
panel. Remove the drawer or panel. See the Care and
cleaning of the range section.

To adjust the flow of air to either burner, loosen the
Phillips head screw and rotate the shutter toward open
or closed position as needed.

The flames for the top (broil) burner should be steady
with approximately 1

″ blue cones and should not extend

out over the edges of the burner baffle.

To determine if the bottom burner flames are burning
properly, remove the oven bottom. Flames should have
approximately 1

″ blue cones and, if range is supplied

with natural gas, should burn with no yellow tipping.
(With most LP gas, small yellow tips at the end of outer
cones are normal.) Flames should not lift off burner
ports. If lifting is observed, gradually reduce air shutter
opening until flames are stabilized.
