30" ELECTRIC SLIDE-IN RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
To avoid breakage: Do NOT handle or
manipulate the unit by the cooktop glass.
The counter-top around the cut-out should be flat and leveled (see
1
hatched area on illustration 1).
Before installing the unit, measure the heights of the two (2)
2
cabinet sides (H1-4), front and back (see illustration 1) from the
floor to the top of the counter.
Level the range using the
3
four (4) leveling legs so
that the height from the
floor to the underside of
the cooktop glass frame
is greater than the tallest
cabinet measurement
by at least 1/16" (see
illustration 2).
Slide the unit into the cabinet. Make sure the center of the unit is
4
aligned with the center of the cabinet cut-out.
Remove the protective channels on each side of the glass cooktop
5
(if provided).
The metal flange under each side of the cooktop MUST be placed
6
over the cabinet countertop for proper unit support. The glass
cooktop should NOT directly touch the countertop (see illustration
2) or could cause glass breakage voiding the warranty. Level the
unit if needed.
After the installation, MAKE SURE that the
7
unit is supported by the leveling legs NOT by
the cooktop.
