warming drawer or premium storage drawer, and grasp the
lower right or left side of the control panel as shown.

3. If the rear of the range lifts more than ½" (1.3 cm) off the floor
without resistance, stop tilting the range and lower it gently back
to the floor. The range foot is not engaged in the anti-tip bracket.
IMPORTANT: If there is a snapping or popping sound when lifting
the range, the range may not be fully engaged in the bracket. Check
to see if there are obstructions keeping the range from sliding to the
wall or keeping the range foot from sliding into the bracket. Verify
that the bracket is held securely in place by the mounting screws.
4. Slide the range forward, and verify that the anti-tip bracket is
securely attached to the floor or wall.
5. Slide range back so the rear range foot is inserted into the slot
of the anti-tip bracket.
IMPORTANT: If the back of the range is more than 2" (5.1 cm)
from the mounting wall, the rear range foot may not engage the
bracket. Slide the range forward and determine if there is an
obstruction between the range and the mounting wall. If you need
assistance or service, refer to the "Assistance or Service" section
of the Use and Care Guide, or the cover or "Warranty" section of
the User Instructions, for contact information.
6. Repeat steps 1 and 2 to ensure that the range foot is engaged
in the anti-tip bracket.
If the rear of the range lifts more than ½" (1.3 cm) off the floor
without resistance, the anti-tip bracket may not be installed
correctly. Do not operate the range without anti-tip bracket
installed and engaged. Please reference the "Assistance or
Service" section of the Use and Care Guide, or the cover or
"Warranty" section of the User Instructions, to contact service.
