IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Be sure your range is installed and grounded properly

by a qualified installer or service technician.

This range must be electrically grounded in

accordance with local codes or, in their absence,
with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No.
70—latest edition.

• The installation of appliances designed for

manufactured (mobile) home installation must conform
with Manufactured Home Construction and Safety
Standard, title 24CFR, part 3280 [Formerly the Federal
Standard for Mobile Home Construction and Safety,
title 24, HUD (part 280)] or when such standard
is not applicable, the Standard for Manufactured
Home Installation 1982 (Manufactured Home Sites,
Communities and Setups), ANSI Z225.1/NFPA 501A-
latest edition, or with local codes.

Make sure the wall coverings around the range

can withstand the heat generated by the range.

Before installing the range in an area covered

with linoleum or any other synthetic floor
covering, make sure the floor covering can
withstand heat at least 90°F above room
temperature without shrinking, warping or
discoloring.
Do not install the range over carpeting
unless you place an insulating pad or sheet of 1/4"
thick plywood between the range and carpeting.

Never leave children alone or

unattended in the area where an appliance is in
use.
As children grow, teach them the proper, safe use
of all appliances. Never leave the oven door open when
the range is unattended.

Stepping, leaning or sitting on the

door of this range can result in serious injuries and
can also cause damage to the range.

Do not store items of interest to children in

the cabinets above the range. Children could be
seriously burned climbing on the range to reach items.

To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching

over heated surface units, cabinet storage
space above the surface unit should be avoided.
If cabinet storage is to be provided the risk can
be reduce by installing a range hood that project

horizontally a minimum of 5 inches beyond the bottom
of the cabinet.

Do not use the oven as a storage space. This

creates a potentially hazardous situation.

Never use your range for warming or heating the

room. Prolonged use of the range without adequate
ventilation can be dangerous.

Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable

vapors and liquids near this or any other
appliance.
Explosions or fires could result.

Reset all controls to the "off" position after using

a programmable timing operation.

FOR MODELS WITH SELF-CLEAN FEATURE:
Remove broiler pan, food and other utensils before

self-cleaning the oven. Wipe up excess spillage. Follow
the pre cleaning instructions in the Use and Care Guide.

A child or adult can tip the

range and be killed.
Verify the rear bracket is

engaged with countertop or
the anti-tip device has been
installed to the walls of the

Tip Over Hazard

cabinet as per installation instructions.
Ensure the anti-tip bracket is re-engaged with

the countertop or to the cabinet side walls as
per the installation instructions when the range
is moved.
Do not operate the range without the anti-tip

device in place and engaged.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in

death or serious burns to children and adults.

To check if the anti-tip bracket is
installed properly, use both arms
and grasp the rear edge of range
back. Carefully attempt to tilt range
forward. When properly installed, the

range should not tilt forward.
Refer to the anti-tip bracket installation instructions
supplied with your range for proper installation.
