Location of the Range

Do not locate the range where it may be subject to strong

drafts. Any openings in the floor or wall behind the range

should be sealed. Make sure the openings around the base of

the range that supply fresh air for combustion and ventilation

are not obstructed by carpeting or woodwork.
Your range is heavy and can settle into soft floor coverings

such as cushioned vinyl or carpeting. Use care when moving

the range on this type of flooring. It is recommended that the

following instructions be followed to protect your floor.
The range should be installed on a sheet of plywood (or

similar material). When the floor covering ends at the front of

the range, the area that the range will rest on should be built

up with plywood to the same level or higher than the floor

covering.
This will allow the range to be moved for cleaning or

servicing. Also, make sure your floor covering will withstand

80 °C (180 °F); see the ‘Installation Safety Instructions’ section.
Make sure the wall coverings around your range can

withstand the heat generated, up to 90 °C (200 °F), by the

range; see the ‘Installation Safety Instructions’ section.
