Range Installation
Important Note: Door removal is not a requirement for
installation of the range, but is an added convenience.
Refer to the Use and Care Guide for oven door removal
instructions.
Standard Installation
The range cooktop overlaps the countertop at the
sides and the range rests on the floor. The cooktop is
311/2" (80 cm) wide.
Install base cabinets 30" (76.2 cm) apart. Make sure
they are plumb and level before attaching cooktop.
Shave raised countertop edge to clear 311/2" (80 cm)
wide range top rim.
Install cabinet doors 32" (81.3 cm) min. apart so as
not to interfere with range door opening.
Cutout countertop exactly as shown on page 1.
Make sure the two front leveling legs and the rear
leveling wheels (see page 11) are setup higher than
the height of the cabinet (shown on page 3).
Removeand discard the two rear leveling legs, they are
only in place to solidify the unit for the transport.
Install the anti-tip bracket at
this point before placing the range at its final
position. Follow the installation instructions on page
11 or on the anti-tip bracket template supplied with
the range.
Position range in front of the cabinet opening.
Make sure that the underside of the cooktop clears
the countertop. If necessary, raise the unit by lowering
the front leveling legs and the back leveling wheels.
Level the range (see section 6). The floor where
the range is to be installed must be level. Follow the
instructions under "Leveling the Range".
Slide the range into the cutout opening.

To provide an optimum installation, the top surface
of the countertop must be level and flat (lie on the
same plane) around the 3 sides that are adjacent to

flat should be made or gaps between the countertop
and the range cooktop may occur.
