Prepare To Install The Range; Tools You Will Need - GE JSP26 Installation Instructions Manual

PREPARE TO INSTALL THE RANGE

FOR YOUR SAFETY:
All rough-in and spacing dimensions must be
met for safe use of your range. Electricity to
the range can be disconnected at the outlet
without moving the range if the outlet is in
the preferred location (remove lower drawer).
To reduce the risk of burns or fire when
reaching over hot surface elements, cabinet
storage space above the cooktop should be
avoided. If cabinet storage space is to be
provided above the cooktop, the risk can
be reduced by installing a range hood that
sticks out at least 5" beyond the front of the
cabinets. Cabinets installed above a cooktop
must be no deeper than 13".
Be sure your appliance is properly installed
and grounded by a qualified technician.
