40" ELECTRIC RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Anti-tip Bracket Installation
Instructions

Important Safety Warning

To reduce the risk of tipping of the range, the range must
be secured to the fl oor by the properly installed anti-tip
bracket and screws packed with the range. 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 child
climbs upon it. Serious injury might result from spilled hot
liquids or from the range itself.

If range is ever moved to a different location, the anti-tip
brackets must also be moved and installed with the range.

Instructions are provided for installation in wood or
cement fl oor. When fastening to fl oor, be sure that screws
do not penetrate electrical wiring or plumbing.
