Installation Instructions
WARNING!
ANTI-TIP DEVICE
To reduce the risk of tipping the range, the range must be
secured by a properly installed anti-tip bracket. See
installation instructions shipped with the bracket for
complete details before attempting to install.
To check if the bracket is installed and engaged properly,
carefully tip the range forward. The bracket should stop the
range within 4 inches. If it does not, the bracket must be
reinstalled. 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.
For free-standing or slide-in ranges, never completely
remove the leveling legs or the range will not be secured
to the anti-tip device properly.
If you did not receive an anti-tip bracket with your
purchase, call 1.800.626.8774 to receive one at no cost
(in Canada, call 1.800.561.3344). For installation instructions
of the bracket, visit GEAppliances.com (in Canada,
GEAppliances.ca).
■ For your safety, never use your range for warming
or heating the room. Your oven and cooktop are not
designed to heat your kitchen. Top burners should
not be operated without cookware on the grate. Such
abuse could result in fire and damage to your range
and will void your warranty.
■ Do not store or use combustible materials, gasoline
or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity
of this or any other appliance. Explosions or fires
could result.
■ Do not use oven for a storage area. Items stored
in the oven can ignite.
■ Do not let cooking grease or other flammable
materials accumulate in or near the range
.
LOCATION
Do not locate the range where it may be subject to
strong drafts. Any openings in the floor or wall behind
the range should be sealed. Make sure the openings
around the base of the range that supply fresh air
for combustion and ventilation are not obstructed
by carpeting or woodwork.
Your range, like many other household items, is
heavy and can settle into soft floor coverings such as
cushioned vinyl or carpeting. Use care when moving
the range on this type of flooring. It is recommended
that the following simple and inexpensive instructions
be followed to protect your floor.
The range should be installed on a sheet of plywood
(or similar material). When the floor covering ends at the
front of the range, the area that 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. Also, make sure your floor covering will
withstand 180°F. (See the Installation Safety Instructions
section.)
Make sure the wall coverings around your range can
withstand the heat generated (up to 200°F) by the
range. (See the Installation Safety Instructions section.)
IMPORTANT!
Remove all tape and packaging. Make sure the
burners are properly seated and level.
Take the accessory pack out of the oven and/or
drawer.
Check to be sure that no range parts have come loose
during shipping.
