panel and look underneath the range to see that
the leveling leg is engaged in the bracket. On
models without a storage drawer or kick panel,
carefully tip the range forward. The bracket

pulled from the wall for any reason, always repeat
this procedure to verify the range is properly
secured by the anti-tip bracket. Never completely
remove the leveling legs or the range will not be
secured to the anti-tip device properly.
