MINIMUM
DIMENSIONS
BETWEEN COOKTOP,
WALLS AND ABOVE THE COOKTOP:
A. Make sure the wall covering, countertop, flooring
and cabinets around the range can withstand the
heat (up to 200°F [93.3°C]) generated by the range.
B. Allow 30" (76.2cm) minimum clearance between
surface units and bottom of unprotected wood or
metal cabinet, or allow a 24" (60.96cm) minimum
when bottom of wood or metal cabinet is protected
by no less than 1/4" (.635cm) thick flame retardant
millboard covered with not less than No 28 MSG
sheet metal, (.015'1, .015" thick stainless steel, .024"

C. This appliance has been approved for 0" spacing to adjacent surfaces above the cooktop. However, a
6" (15.24cm) minimum spacing to surfaces less than 15" (38.1cm) above the cooktop and adjacent
cabinet is recommended to reduce exposure to steam, grease splatter and heat.
To reduce the risk of burns or fire when reaching over hot surface elements, cabinet storage space
above the cooktop should be avoided. If cabinet storage space is to be provided above
the cooktop, the risk can be reduced by installing a range hood that projects at least 5" (12.7cm) beyond
the front of the cabinets. Cabinets installed above the cooktop must be no deeper than lY' (33.02cm).
REPLACE THE WIRE COVER
Replace wire cover on range back by sliding its ]eft edge under the retaining tabs and replace the
screws removed earlier. Make sure that no wires are pinched between cover and range back.

ANTI-TIP
DEVICE INSTALLATION
Tip-Over Hazard
• A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.
• Install the anti-tip bracket to the wall or floor.
• Engage the range to the anti-tip bracket by sliding the
range back such that the foot is engaged.
• Re-engage the anti-tip bracket if the range is moved.
• Failure to do so can result in death or serious burns
to children or adults.
To reduce the risk of tipping
the range, the range must
be secured by a properly
installed anti-tip bracket. See
installation instructions
shipped with the bracket for
complete details before
attempting to install.
To check if the bracket
is installed and engaged
properly, look underneath
the range to see that the rear
leveling leg is engaged in the bracket. On some models, the storage drawer or kick panel can be removed
for easier inspection. If visual inspection is not possible, slide the range forward, confirm the anti-tip bracket
is securely attached to the floor or wall and slide the range back so the leveling leg is under the anti-tip
bracket. If the range is 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 bracket.
