INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Prepare Built-In Oven

NOTES:
■ Refer to the following “Installation Instructions” and the “Installation Instructions” section of the Installation Instructions provided with your built-in oven.
■ Refer and adhere to the “Electrical Requirements” section, and complete the instructions in the “Make Electrical Connection” section of the Installation Instructions provided with your built-in oven.

1. Decide on the final location for the oven. Avoid drilling or cutting into house wiring during installation.
   ⚠ WARNING
   Excessive Weight Hazard
   Use two or more people to move and install oven.
   Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

2. To avoid floor damage, set the oven onto cardboard prior to installation. Do not use handle or any portion of the front frame for lifting.

3. Remove the shipping materials and tape from the oven.
   Remember to keep the corner posts and other materials that may be needed for installation.

4. Remove the hardware package from inside the bag containing literature.

5.  Move oven and cardboard close to the oven’s final location.

Remove Oven Door(s)

IMPORTANT: Use two hands to remove oven door(s).

1. Prior to removing the oven door, prepare a surface where you will place it. This surface should be flat and covered with a soft blanket, or use the corner posts from your packaging material.
2. Open the oven door.
3. Locate the oven door hinge locks in both corners of the oven door, and rotate the hinge locks toward the oven door to the unlocked position. If the door hinge lock is not rotated fully (see illustration B), the door will not remove properly.
4. Partially close the door to engage the door latch locks. The door will stop at this point.
5. Using two hands, grasp the edges of the oven door. Lift and pull the oven door toward you, and remove. You may need to gently shift door from side to side as you pull.
6. Set the oven door(s) aside on the prepared covered work surface with the oven door resting on its handle.
7. To continue with the oven installation, go to the “Positioning Oven Feet” section.

Replace Oven Door(s)

1. Using two hands, grasp side edges of door at the midpoint.
   Face the oven cavity.

2.  Locate the slots on each side of the oven cavity for the door hinge locks.

3. At a 45° angle, align door hinges with slots in the lower front of the oven cavity. Slowly insert door, making sure you maintain the 45° angle. You will know the door is engaged in the slot when you feel a slight drop.

4. Lower the oven door to the fully open position. If the oven door does not open to a full 90 degrees, repeat steps 1 through 3.

5. Locate the oven door hinge locks in the corners of the oven door, and rotate the hinge locks toward the oven cavity to the locked position. See Step 3 (illustration A) in the “Remove Oven Door(s)” section for proper locked position.

6. Close the oven door.

7. When the hinges are properly installed and the door closed, there should be an even gap between the door and the control panel. If one side of the oven door is hanging lower than the other, the hinge on that side is not properly installed.
   Repeat the steps to remove, then replace the oven door. See the “Remove Oven Door(s)” and “Replace Oven Door(s).” sections.

Positioning Oven Feet

Single Ovens
The positioning of the oven feet allows a single oven to be installed in a recommended cutout height of 281 /2″ (72.4 cm).
Go to the “Make Electrical Connection” section in the Installation Instructions provided with your built-in oven.

Double Ovens
The oven feet need to be installed to allow a double oven to be installed in a recommended cutout height of 517/16″ (130.6 cm).
NOTE: Do not remove the spacers.

1. Using 2 or more people, place the oven on its back on a covered surface.

2. Install a foot on the left rear spacer using a #8-18 x 3/8″ screw.
   NOTE: Position the foot so the long side of the foot is facing toward the top of the oven.

3. In the same manner, install a foot on the right rear of the oven.

4. Install a front foot on the left front spacer using a #8-18 x 3 /8″ screw.
   NOTE: Position the foot so the long side of the foot is facing toward the inside of the oven.

5. In the same manner, install a front foot on the right front of the oven.
