PREPARATION
[] OPTIONAL MAINTOP FILLER OR
BACKGUARD KIT
If counter opening extends to the wall, it will
require Maintop Filler Kit (supplied with the range)
or Backguard Kit (JXS32XX or JXS37XX ) to close
the gap.
NOTE: If the countertop is greater than 25", it will
show a gap between the backguard and wall or
between filler kit and the wall.
If the countertop is less than 25", a gap will occur
between the countertop front and the control panel
ends (see Step 13G).
If you are using the optional backguard kit, refer to
the backguard kit instructions for installation details.

If you use the filler kit, place the metal filler piece
supplied with the range to the back of the range as
shown in the figure below. Start the 2 screws into
the upper holes at the outside rear of the range and
through the slots in the trim, holding the filler piece
centered on the maintop frame and pushing upward
to close the gap between the bottom of the maintop
and the filler trim.
When the trim is set in the proper position, tighten
the 2 mounting screws. The top of the trim should
be located below the top surface of the maintop to
prevent pots, pans and skillets from damaging the
painted parts.
Refer to the Standard Installation of the Range on
page 6.

[] FOR NON-BUILT-IN INSTALLATION
(END OF CABINET LOCATION)
When installing the range at the end of a cabinet
section which will expose the unfinished side of the
range, use Body Side Kit (JXS77XX). Refer to the kit
instructions for installation details.
[] ISLAND INSTALLATION
Attach the Anti--[]p bracket per instructions in Step 12,
making sure that the rear of the bracket is 25" from
the front of the countertop.
Be aware that the screws provided are long and may
penetrate through the back of the island cabinets. In
this event, use shorter screws (not provided) or the
screws provided should be used in the floor (see
Step 12B for Wood/Concrete Floor Installation).
Do not use Backguard Kit JXS32XX or JXS37XX.
[] CABINETS OVER THE RANGE LESS
THAN 30"
If a 30" clearance between cooking surface and
overhead combustible material or metal cabinets
cannot be maintained, protect the underside of the
cabinets above the cooktop with not less than 1/4"
insulating millboard covered with sheet metal not
less than 0.0122" thick.
