WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, personal injuries, and/or death, observe the
following precautions.
• This range is for indoor, household use only. Do not install the range outdoors or
anywhere that it will be exposed to weather/water or wind/strong drafts.
• Do not install the range in a place which is exposed to a strong draft.
• Select a level, well-constructed floor that can support the range’s weight. Synthetic
flooring, such as linoleum, must withstand 180 °F (82 °C) temperatures without
shrinking, warping, or discoloring. Do not install the range directly over interior kitchen
carpeting unless a sheet of ¼ inch plywood or a similar insulator is placed between the
range and carpeting.
• If the range is located near a window, do not hang long curtains or paper blinds on that
window.
• For the range to ventilate properly, make sure the range’s vents are not blocked, and
that there is enough clearance at the top, back, sides, and underneath the range. The
vents allow the necessary exhaust for the range to operate properly with correct
combustion.
• Make sure the wall coverings around the range can withstand heat up to 200 °F (93 °C)
generated by the range.
• Cabinet storage above the surface of the range should be avoided. If cabinet storage
above the range is necessary, allow a minimum clearance of 30 inches (76.2 cm)
between the cooking surface and the bottom of the cabinets or install a range hood
that projects horizontally a minimum of 5 inches (12.7 cm) beyond the bottom of the
cabinets.
• Locate the range out of kitchen traffic paths and drafty locations to prevent poor air
circulation.
• If the range is located near a window, NEVER hang long curtains or paper blinds on
that window. They could blow over the surface burners and ignite, causing a fire
hazard.
