Inspect Installation Location

Refer to alternate construction section
for the following non-standard
installations.
a. Counter opening extends to
the wall:
Maintop Filler (supplied with the
range.) (See page 15, section AA,
for Installation Instructions) or
Backguard (Kit JXS36XX or
JXS39SS). See page 15.
b. Counter height greater than
36-3/4":
Lower Trim Slide-In (Kit JXS56XX).
c. One side is not enclosed by
a cabinet:
Bodyside (Kit JXS76XX).
d. Island Installation:
To provide an optimum installation,
the top surface of the countertop
must be level and flat (lie on the
same plane) around the 3 sides
that are adjacent to range cooktop.
Proper adjustments to make the
top flat should be made or gaps
between the countertop and range
cooktop may occur. Forcing the
cooktop to fit may cause excessive
gaps and could break the glass
and void the warranty.
To obtain Kits:
a. Visit GE Web Site (See page 1)
b. Call GE Answer Center (See page 1)
c. Contact Dealer
Move range indoors in front of
cabinet opening.
(Do not use hand trucks when
moving the unpackaged range.
Cooktop glass may be broken.)
Protect the kitchen floor! Flatten and
place a piece of the shipping carton in
front of the installation location to
protect the flooring.
Do not remove the protective
channel from the sides of the glass
cooktop, if applicable, until later in
the installation.
Carefully, tilt the range to access the
range leveling legs. Use an adjustable
wrench to screw leveling legs out so
that glass support flanges clear top of
