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
( m o b i l e ) h o m e i n s t a l l a t i o n m u s t c o n f o r m w i t h
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 fl oor covering can withstand heat at
least 90°F/32°C 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" (6.4 mm) 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(s) or drawer 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 need to reach over the surface
units, cabinet storage space above the units
should be avoided.
• 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 fl ammable
vapors and liquids near this or any other appliance.
Explosions or fi res could result.
• Reset all controls to the "off" position after using
a programmable timing operation.
• Save 4 shipping bolts from range packaging to use
as leveling legs for range.
Two anti-tip brackets MUST be removed from
lower back of range and MUST be installed. For
detailed instructions, see page 8.
FOR MODELS WITH SELF-CLEAN FEATURE:
• Remove broiler pan, food and other utensils before
self-cleaning the oven. Wipe up excess spillage.
Follow the precleaning instructions in the Owner's
Guide.
A child or adult can tip the range •
and be killed.
Verify the anti-tip device has been
•

Tip Over Hazard
Ensure the anti-tip device is re-engaged to fl oor •
or wall 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
