Temperature

IMPORTANT: Some cabinet and building materials are not designed to withstand the heat produced by the oven for baking and self-cleaning. Check with your builder or cabinet supplier to make sure that the materials used will not discolor, delaminate or sustain other damage.

  • Contact a qualified floor covering installer to check that the floor covering can withstand at least 200°F (93°C).
  • Use an insulated pad or 1/4” (0.64 cm) plywood under range if installing range over carpeting.

General

  • The range should be located for convenient use in the kitchen.
  • Recessed installations must provide complete enclosure of the sides and rear of the range.
  • 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 or microwave hood combination that projects horizontally a minimum of 5” (12.7 cm) beyond the bottom of the cabinets.
  • All openings in the wall or floor where the range is to be installed must be sealed.
  • Do not seal the range to the side cabinets.

Imstall Anti-Tip Bracket

NOTE: An anti-tip bracket kit is provided with the range.
WARNING: Tip Over Hazard

  • A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.
  • Connect anti-tip bracket to rear range foot.
  • Reconnect the anti-tip bracket if the range is moved.
  • Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious burns to children and adults.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT completely remove the rear leveling leg. The anti-tip bracket uses either the right-hand or left hand, rear leveling leg to secure the range to the floor.

  1. Locate The Bracket
    Determine the final location of the range before attempting to install the bracket.
    A. Place the bracket on the floor with the back edge against the rear wall. If the range does not reach the rear wall, align the back edge of the bracket with the rear panel of the range in its final location. NOTE:
    If bracket does not touch the rear wall, you MUST screw bracket to FLOOR .
    B. Position the side of the bracket against either the left or right cabinet. If there is no adjacent cabinet, align the edge of the bracket with the side panel of the range in its final location. If the countertop overhangs the cabinet, offset the bracket from the cabinet by the amount of overhang.
    C. Mark the location for the pair of holes to be used (see illustration below).
    NOTE: For FLOOR installation use either Loc A or B. For REAR WALL installation use Loc C

  2. Secure The Bracket
    The bracket must be screwed to either the FLOOR or REAR WALL.

FLOOR Installation:

  • Wood floor: Use the screws provided to secure the bracket using the pair of marked holes (either Loc A or B).
  • Concrete floor: Using a concrete bit, drill a 5/32” pilot hole 2” deep into the concrete at the center of each of the marked holes (either Loc A or B). Use the screws provided to secure the bracket into the floor.

REAR WALL Installation:
Use the 2 screws provided to secure the bracket using the pair of marked holes at Loc C. The screws MUST enter a wood sill plate. If the wall contains any metal studs or similar materials, then the floor must be used.
Wall Installation

Check The Bracket

After installing the bracket, slide the range into its final location. The rear leveling leg must be fully inserted into the ANTI-TIP bracket as shown in Step 1. 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.

NOTE: The anti-tip bracket must be PROPERLY INSTALLED, and the rear leveling leg must be FULLY ENGAGED into the bracket to prevent the range from tipping. NEVER remove the leveling legs. This will prevent the range from being secured to the ANTI-TIP bracket properly.

Make Electrical Connection

This range is equipped with a CSA International Certified Power Cord intended to be plugged into a standard 4-wire receptacle (NEMA type 14-50R) wall receptacle. Be sure the wall receptacle is within reach of range’s final location.
