Your safety and the safety of others are very important. We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages. This is the safety alert symbol. This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others. All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word 'DANGER" or 'WARNING." These words mean: You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediatebL follow instructions. You can be kitied or seriously injured if you don't follow instructions. All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed. IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances. Failure to meet codes and ordinances could lead to fire or electrical shock. Proper installation is your responsibility. A qualified technician must install this range. Make sure you have everything necessary for correct installation. 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 storage drawer panel. Check location where range will be installed.The range should be located for convenient use in kitchen. 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 inches beyond the bottom of the cabinets. All openings in the wall or floor where ranges is to be installed must be sealed. Cabinet opening dimensions that are shown must be used. Given dimensions are minimum clearances. Grounded electrical outlet is required. See "Electrical requirements" section. Mobile home installation The installation of this range must conform with the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standard,Title 24 CFR, Part 3280 [formerly the Federal Standard for Mobile Home Construction and Safety, Title 24, HUD (Part 280)] or, when such standard is not applicable, the Standard for Manufactured Home Installations, ANSI A225J/NFPA 501A *, or with local codes. When this range is installed in a mobile home, it must be secured to the floor during transit. Any method of securing the range is adequate as long as it conforms to the standards listed above. Four-wire power supply cord or cable must be used in a mobile home installation.The appliance wiring will need to be revised. See "Four-wire electrical connection" section. The floor anti-tip bracket must be installed.To install the anti-tip bracket shipped with the range, see Page 5 and the anti-tip bracket template. Copies of the standards listed may be obtained from: National Fire Protection Association One Batterymarch Park Quincy, Massachusetts, 02269 Tools needed: Follow all factory safety instructions included with your tools. • level fiat-blade screwdriver 3/8" drive ratchet 3/8" and 5/16" nut drivers hand or electric drill channel lock pliers measuring tape or ruler wood floors: 1/8" drill bit concrete/ceramic floors: 3/16" carbide-tipped masonry drill bit (Hammer may be needed for anchors,) Parts supplied: Not shown: literature pack 2 plastic anchors 2 screws floor-mounted (#10 x I-1/2") anti-tip bracket Brackets must be securely mounted to sub-floor, Thickness of flooring may require longer screws to anchor bracket to sub-floor, Longer screws are available from your local hardware store.
