1. Draw a center line (CL) on the floor where the range

should be installed. Also draw a line on the floor at

the range back position if there is no wall.

2. Unfold paper template and place it flat on the floor

with the right rear corner positioned exactly on the

intersection of the center and back lines you just

drew before. (Use the diagram below to locate

brackets if template is not available (Figure 21)).

3. Mark on the floor the location of the 4 mounting holes

shown on the template. For easier installation, 3/16"

(0,48 cm) diameter pilot holes 1/2" (1,27 cm) deep

can be drilled into the floor.

4. Remove template and place bracket on floor. Line up

holes in bracket with marks on floor and attach with

4 screws provided. Bracket must be secured to solid

floor (Figure 19). If attaching to concrete floor, first

drill 3/16" (0,48 cm) dia. pilot holes using masonry

drill bit.

5. Be sure the 4 leveling legs are at the highest position

they can be.

6. Slide range into place making sure structure of the

range is trapped by the anti-tip bracket (Figure 22).

Lower the range by adjusting the 4 leveling legs until

the underside of the cooktop is sitting level on the

countertop. Refer to "Leveling the Range" section.

7. After installation, verify that the anti-tip bracket is

engaged by grasping the top rear edge of the range

and carefully attempt to tilt it forward to make sure

range is properly anchored.

Anti-Tip Brackets Installation

Instructions

12.1

Models Equipped with Leveling Device

To reduce the risk of tipping of the

range, the range must be secured to the floor by

properly installed anti-tip bracket and screws packed

with the range. These parts are located in the oven.

Failure to install the anti-tip bracket will allow the range

to tip over if excessive weight is placed on an open door

or if a child climbs upon it. Serious injury might result

from spilled hot liquids or from the range itself.

Follow the instructions below to install the anti-tip

brackets.
If range is ever moved to a different location, the anti-

tip brackets must also be moved and installed with the

range.

Tools Required:

Adjustable Wrench

Ratchet

Drill & 1/8" (0,32 cm) bit

5/16" (0,8 cm) Nutdriver

Level

The anti-tip bracket attaches to the floor at the back of

the range to prevent range from tipping. When fastening

bracket to the floor, be sure that screws do not penetrate

electrical wiring or plumbing. The screws provided will

work in either wood or concrete.
