[_ 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.
| LEVEL THE RANGE
Install the oven racks in the oven and position
the range where it will be installed.
Check for levelness by
placing a spirit level or a
cup, partially filled with
water, on one of the oven
racks. If using a spirit level,
take two readings-with
the level placed diagonally
first in one direction and then the other.

The rear leveling legs must be adjusted prior
to moving the range into position. They can
