and voiding the warranty. Make sure the wall covering, countertop, flooring and cabinets around the range  
can withstand the heat (up to 200˚F) generated by the range.

to slide it into the hinge slots. Do not lift the door by the handle.  
A. Lift the oven door by placing one hand on each side. The door is heavy,  
so you may need help. Do not lift the door by the handle.  
To check if the bracket is installed and engaged properly,  
remove the storage drawer or kick panel and look under-  
neath the range to see that the leveling leg  
is engaged in the bracket. On models without a storage  
drawer or kick panel, carefully tip the range forward.  
B. With the door at the same angle as the removal position (approximately  
1"-2" from the closed position), seat the notch of the hinge arm into  
the bottom edge of the hinge slot. The notch of the hinge arm must  
be fully seated into the bottom of the slot.

B. Lift front of the drawer and push in until the stops clear the guides.  
C. Lower the front of the drawer and push in until it closes.  
A. Position the range in front of the cabinet opening. Make sure that  
the glass that overhangs the countertop clears the countertop.  
If necessary, raise the unit by lowering the leveling legs.

FINAL INSTALLATION CHECKLIST  
Position range cord so that there is no  
interference with the storage drawer  
• Check to make sure the circuit breaker is closed (RESET) or the circuit fuses are replaced.  
• Be sure power is in service to the building.  
D. Carefully push the range into the opening until  
the countertop fully engages the control panel.  
The back glass overhang should cover the cutout  
opening. Plug the range cord into the receptacle.  
Locate the cord in the back of the range in a manner  
that it will not touch or be moved by the drawer.  
• Check that all packing materials and tape have been removed. This will include tape on metal panel  
under control knobs (if applicable), adhesive tape, wire ties, cardboard and protective plastic. Failure  
to remove these materials could result in damage to the appliance once the appliance has been  
turned on and surfaces have heated.  
• Check that the door and drawer are parallel to each other and that both operate smoothly.  
If they do not, see the Owner’s Manual for proper replacement.  
STORAGE DRAWER  
• Check to make sure that the rear leveling leg is fully inserted into the anti-tip bracket  
and that the bracket is securely installed.  
OPERATION CHECKLIST  
• Turn on one of the surface units to observe that the element glows within 60 seconds. Turn the unit  
off when glow is detected. If the glow is not detected within the time limit, recheck the range wiring  
connections. If change is required, retest again. If no change is required, have building wiring checked  
for proper connections and voltage.  
• Check that the oven control operates properly. If the oven control does not operate properly,  
recheck the wiring connections.  
• Be sure all range controls are in the OFF position before leaving the range.
