INSTRUCTIONS
Flooring Under
the Range
Your range, like so many other
household items, is heavy and
can settle into soft floor coverings
such as cushioned vinyl. When
moving the range on this type of
flooring, use care.
Do not install the range over
kitchen carpeting unless you
place an insulating pad or sheet of
l/4-inch-thick plywood between
the range and carpeting.
When the floor covering ends at
the front of the range, the area that
the range will rest on should be
built up with plywood or similar
material to the same level or higher
than the floor covering. This will
allow the range to be moved for
cleaning or servicing.

Leveling the Range

Leveling legs are located on each
corner of the base of the range.
Your range must be level in order to
produce proper cooking and baking
results. After it is in its final location,
place a level horizontally on an
oven shelf and check the levelness
front to back and side to side. Level
the range by adjusting the leveling
legs or by placing shims under the
corners as needed.
The rear leveling legs will engage
the ANTI-TIP brackets (allow for
some side to side adjustment).
A11ow a minimum clearance of 1/8"
between the range and the leveling
legs that are to be installed into
the ANTI-TIP brackets.
