Adjust Leveling Legs; Verify Anti-Tip Bracket Is Installed And Engaged; Electronic Ignition System - KitchenAid KSDG950ESS Installation Instructions Manual

Adjust Leveling Legs

1. If range height adjustment is necessary, use a wrench
or pliers to loosen the 4 leveling legs.
This may be done with the range on its back or with the
range supported on 2 legs after the range has been placed
back to a standing position.
NOTE: To place range back up into a standing position, put
a sheet of cardboard or hardboard in front of range. Using
2 or more people, stand range back up onto the cardboard
or hardboard.
WARNING
Tip Over Hazard
A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.
Install anti-tip bracket to floor or wall per installation
instructions.
Slide range back so rear range foot is engaged in the
slot of the anti-tip bracket.
Re-engage anti-tip bracket if range is moved.
Do not operate range without anti-tip bracket installed
and engaged.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death
or serious burns to children and adults.
2. Measure the distance from the top of the counter
to the floor.
3. Measure the distance from the top of the cooktop to
the bottom of the leveling legs. This distance should be
the same. If it is not, adjust the leveling legs to the correct
height. The leveling legs can be loosened to add up to
a maximum of 1" (2.5 cm). A minimum of ³⁄
is needed to engage the anti-tip bracket.
NOTE: If height adjustment is made when range is
standing, tilt the range back to adjust the front legs,
and then tilt forward to adjust the rear legs.
4. When the range is at the correct height, check that there is
adequate clearance under the range for the anti-tip bracket.
Before sliding range into its final location, check that the
anti-tip bracket will slide under the range and onto the rear
leveling leg prior to anti-tip bracket installation.
NOTE: If a Trim Kit will be used, the top of the cooktop
should be higher than the counter. See the Installation
Instructions included with the Trim Kit for the correct height.
1. Ensure range is in its final location.
2. Remove the front lower access panel.
3. Use a flashlight to look underneath the bottom of the range.
4. Visually check that the rear range foot is inserted into
the slot of the anti-tip bracket.
5. Replace the front lower access panel.
IMPORTANT: If the range is moved to adjust the leveling legs,
verify that the anti-tip bracket is engaged by repeating steps 1 to 5.
Initial Lighting and Gas Flame Adjustments
Cooktop and oven burners use electronic igniters in place of
standing pilots. When the cooktop control knob is turned to the
ignite position, the system creates a spark to light the burner.
All cooktop burners will spark, but only the burner with the
control knob turned to the ignite position will produce a flame.
This sparking continues as long as the control knob is turned
to the ignite position.
When the oven control is turned to the desired setting, sparking
occurs and ignites the gas.
Check Operation of Cooktop Burners
Standard Surface Burners
Push in and turn each control knob to the ignite position.
The flame should light within 4 seconds. The first time a burner
is lit, it may take longer than 4 seconds to light because of air
in the gas line.
If Burners Do Not Light Properly:
T urn cooktop control knob to the off position.

Repeat start-up. If a burner does not light at this point, turn
the control knobs to the off position and contact your dealer

the "Warranty" section of the Use and Care Guide to contact
service.
If the cooktop "low" burner flame needs to be adjusted for any
of the burners, see the "Adjust Flame Height" section.
