PREPARATION
Installing
Your range, like many other household items, is heavy and can settle
into soft floor coverings such as cushioned vinyl or carpeting. When
moving the range on this type of flooring, it should be installed on a 1/4″
thick sheet of plywood (or similar material) as follows: When the
floor covering ends at the front of the range, the area the range will rest on
should be built up with plywood to the same level or higher than the floor
covering. This will allow the range to be moved for cleaning or servicing.
Leveling
Use a 1
3
⁄
8
″ open end or adjustable wrench to equally back out the 4 legs.
The flanges (rims) below the sides of the cooktop must be raised above the
top of the countertop. Carefully slide the range into its installation space.
Observe that it is clearing the countertop. Then place a spirit level or a glass
measuring cup partially filled with water on one of the oven shelves to
check for levelness. If using a spirit level, take two readings, with the level
placed diagonally first in one direction and then the other.
Adjust the 4 legs carefully. Level the range front to back and side to
side. The range legs must rest on the floor. The range must not hang from
the countertop.
Removing Packaging Materials
Please check your range to insure all packaging materials and protective
tape covering are removed from areas, such as the door trim, cooktop
frame, etc. before using.
