LOCATION GUIDELINES
Do not locate the range where it mag be subject to strong drafts. Any openings in the floor or
wall behind the range should be sealed. Hake sure the openings around the base of the range
that supply fresh air for combustion and ventilation are not obstructed bg carpeting or woodwork.
Your range, like mang other household items,
is heavg and can settle into soft floor coverings
such as cushioned vingl or carpeting. Use care
when moving the range on this tgpe of flooring.
It is recommended that the following simple and
inexpensive instructions be followed to protect
gour floon
The range should be installed on a sheet of plgwood
(or similar material).When the floor covering ends at
the front of the range, the area that the range will rest
on should be built up with plgwood to the same level
or higher than the floor covering.
Thiswill allow the range to be moved for cleaning
or servicing.Also, make sure gour floor covering
will withstand 180°F.(Seethe Installation Safety
Instructions section.)
Make sure the wall coverings around gour range
can withstand the heat generated (up to 200°F)
bg the range. (Seethe Installation Safety Instructions
