b) Verify the anti-tip device has been properly installed and engaged
c) Ensure the anti-tip device is re-engaged when the range is moved

■ WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF TIPPING OF THE RANGE, THE RANGE MUST BE SECURED BY
PROPERLY INSTALLED ANTI-TIP DEVICES. TO CHECK IF THE DEVICES ARE INSTALLED PROPERLY, SLIDE
RANGE FORWARD, LOOK FOR ANTI-TIP BRACKET SECURELY ATTACHED TO FLOOR OR WALL, AND SLIDE
RANGE BACK SO REAR RANGE FOOT IS UNDER ANTI-TIP BRACKET.
■ WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF BURNS, DO NOT MOVE THE RANGE WHILE HOT. TO REDUCE THE
RISK OF INJURY DUE TO TIPPING OF THE APPLIANCE, VERIFY THE REINSTALLATION OF THE RANGE INTO
THE ANTI-TIP DEVICE PROVIDED, AND EXTEND LEVELING FEET AFTER RETURNING THE RANGE TO THE
ORIGINAL INSTALLED POSITION.
■ WARNING: NEVER use this appliance as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result
in carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the oven.
■ WARNING: NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack with
materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the oven and may cause carbon
monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings
may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
■ CAUTION: Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets above a range or on the back guard of
a range – children climbing on the range to reach items could be seriously injured.
■ Do Not Leave Children Alone – Children should not be left alone or unattended in area where the
