Location Requirements

IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances. Do

It is the installer's responsibility to comply with installation
clearances specified on the model/serial rating plate. The
model/serial rating plate is located on the oven frame behind
the left side of the broiler door.
A
A. Model/serial rating plate location
The range should be located for convenient use in the kitchen.
Recessed installations must provide complete enclosure of
the sides and rear of the range.
To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over heated
surface units, cabinet storage space located above the
surface units should be avoided. If cabinet storage is to be
provided, the risk can be reduced by installing a range hood
that projects horizontally a minimum of 5" (12.7 cm) beyond
the bottom of the cabinets.
All openings in the wall or floor where range is to be installed
must be sealed.
Do not seal the range to the side cabinets.
Cabinet opening dimensions that are shown must be used.
Given dimensions are minimum clearances.
The floor anti-tip bracket must be installed. To install the anti-
tip bracket shipped with the range, see "Install Anti-Tip
Bracket" section.
Grounded electrical supply is required. See "Electrical
Requirements" section.
Proper gas supply connection must be available. See "Gas
Supply Requirements" section.
Contact a qualified floor covering installer to check that the
floor covering can withstand at least 200°F (93°C).
Use an insulated pad or ¼" (0.64 cm) plywood under range if
installing range over carpeting.
IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to your cabinets, check with your
builder or cabinet supplier to make sure that the materials used
will not discolor, delaminate or sustain other damage. This oven
has been designed in accordance with the requirements of UL
and CSA International and complies with the maximum allowable
wood cabinet temperatures of 194° (90°C).
