PREPARATION
[] OPTIONAL MAINTOP FILLER OR
BACKGUARD KIT
If counter opening extends to the wall, it will
require Maintop Filler Kit (supplied with the
range) or Backguard Kit (JXS32XX) to close
the gap.
NOTE: If the countertop is greater than 25",
it will show a gap between the backguard
and wall or between filler kit and the wall.
If the countertop is less than 25", a gap will
occur between the countertop front and the
control panel ends (see Step 13G).
If you are using the optional backguard kit,
refer to the backguard kit instructions for
installation details.

If you use the filler kit, place the metal filler
piece supplied with the range to the back
of the range as shown in the figure below.
Start the 2 screws into the upper holes at the
outside rear of the range above the louvers
and through the slots in the trim, holding
the filler piece centered on the maintop
frame and pushing upward to close the gap
between the bottom of the cooktop and the
filler trim.
When the trim is set in the proper position,
tighten the 2 mounting screws. The top of
the trim should be located below the cooktop
edge to prevent pots, pans and skillets from
damaging the painted parts.
Refer to the Standard Installation of the
Range on page 6.

ISLAND INSTALLATION
Attach the Anti-Tip bracket per instructions in Step
12, making sure that the rear of the bracket is 25"
from the front of the countertop.
Be aware that the screws provided are long and
may penetrate through the back of the island
cabinets. In this event, use shorter screws {not
provided) or the screws provided should be used
in the floor (see Step 12B for Wood/Concrete Floor
Installation).
Do not use Backguard Kit JXS32XX.
