• Secondly, put the backsplash plate on the cover make the big holes through the heads of the screws (S2).
• Thirdly, push the backsplash plate making the small holes align the screws (S3).
• Finally, tighten the screws use driver (S4).

PREPARE THE OPENING
See illustrations for all rough-in and spacing dimensions. The range may be placed with 0” clearance (flush) at the back wall and side walls of the cabinet.

NOTE: Use a 4’ power cord to prevent interference with the storage drawer. Power cords 4½’ to 6’ long may have to be dressed to allow for proper drawer closing.

MINIMUM DIMENSIONS BETWEEN COOKTOP, WALLS AND ABOVE THE COOKTOP:

• A. Make sure the wall covering, countertop, flooring and cabinets around the range can withstand the heat (up to 194°F) generated by the range.
• B. Allow 30” minimum clearance between surface units and bottom of unprotected wood or metal cabinet, or allow a 24” minimum when bottom of wood or metal cabinet is protected by no less than 1/4” thick flame retardant millboard covered with not less than No 28 MSG sheet metal,(.015”), .015” thick stainless steel, .024” aluminum or .020” copper.
• C. This appliance has been approved for 0” spacing to adjacent surfaces above the cooktop.However, a 6” minimum spacing to surfaces less than 15” above the cooktop and adjacentcabinet is recommended to reduce exposure to steam, grease splatter and heat.

To reduce the risk of burns or fire when reaching over hot surface elements, cabinet storage space above the cooktop should be avoided. If cabinet storage space is to be provided above the cooktop, the risk can be reduced by installing a range hood that projects at least 5” beyond the front of the cabinets. Cabinets installed above the cooktop must be no deeper than 13”.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

WARNING

• This appliance must be properly grounded.
• All new constructions, mobile homes, recreational vehicles and installations where local codes do not allow grounding through neutral, require a 4-conductor UL-listed range cord.
• To prevent fire or shock, do not use an extension cord with this appliance.
• To prevent shock, remove house fuse or open circuit breaker before beginning installation.

We recommend you have the electrical wiring and hookup of your range connected by a qualified electrician. After installation, have the electrician show you how to disconnect power from the range.

You must use a single-phase, 120/240 VAC, 60 hertz electrical system. If you
connect to aluminum wiring, properly installed connectors approved for use with aluminum wiring must be used.

Effective January 1, 1996, the National Electrical Code requires that new construction (not existing) utilize a 4-conductor connection to an electric range. When installing an electric range in new construction, mobile home, recreational vehicle, or an area where local codes prohibit grounding through the neutral conductor, refer to the section on four-conductor branch circuit connections.

Check with your local utilities for electrical codes which apply in your area. Failure to wire your oven according to governing codes could result in a hazardous condition. If there are no local codes, your oven must be wired and fused to meet the National Electrical Code, NFPA No. 70 – latest edition, available from the National Fire Protection Association.

This appliance must be supplied with the proper voltage and frequency, and connected to an
individual, properly grounded, 40 amp (minimum) branch circuit protected by a circuit breaker or time-delay fuse.

• Use only a 3-conductor or a 4-conductor
• UL-listed range cord. These cords may be provided with ring terminals on wire and a strain relief device.

A range cord rated at 40 amps with 125/250 minimum volt range is required. A 50 amp range cord is not recommended but if used, it should be marked for use with nominal 1 3/8” diameter connection openings. Care should be taken to center the cable and strain relief within the knockout hole to keep the edge from damaging the cable. The rating plate is located on the back of the oven.

CONNECTING ELECTRICITY

WARNING: Improper grounding can result in the risk of electric shock. If the power cord is damaged, have it replaced by an authorized LANBO Products service center.

• The appliance must be properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician in accordance with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70 (Latest Edition) and local electrical code requirements. Installation should be made by a licensed electrician.

ANTI-TIP DEVICE INSTALLATION

To prevent the range from tipping over due to improper use or overloading the open door, an anti-tip bracket (included in the package) must be installed properly by following instructions below. The anti-tip bracket can be fixed at either the left or right side of the appliance.

• Place the anti-tip bracket on the floor where the range is going to be installed.
• Locate and mark the drill position through the 6 holes in the bracket. And then place the bracket aside.
• Use 5/16’’ masonry drill to drill two holes in suitable depth.
• Insert 6 plastic anchors into the 6 holes and place the bracket back.
• Fix the bracket on the floor by using screws supplied.
• Slide the appliance in position.

NOTE: If range is relocated, the bracket must be removed and installed in new location. Install the anti-tip bracket either right or left side.

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. Never completely remove the leveling legs or the range will not be secured to the anti-tip bracket.

LEVEL THE RANGE

WARNING: Never completely remove the leveling leg as the range will not be secured  to the anti-tip device properly.

The electric range must be installed levelly for proper operation. There are four screw-typeeveling legs at the bottom of the range for you to adjust the level of the range, rotatingclockwise to rise and counterdlockwise to lower the height, Use a leveling instrument to checthelevel of the range.
