BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Remove all tape and packing materials before using the range.
Dispose of all plastic bags after unpacking the range. Never allow children to play with packing materials.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read and follow all instructions before using your oven to prevent the risk of fire, electric shock, personal injury, or
damage when using the range. This guide does not cover all possible conditions that may occur. For further assistance
contact your service agent or manufacturer.
This is the safety alert symbol. This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can cause personal injury to
you and others. All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol with either the word “WARNING” or
“CAUTION”.
WARNING
This symbol will alert you to hazards or unsafe practices which could cause serious bodily harm or death.
CAUTION
This symbol will alert you to hazards or unsafe practices which could cause bodily injury or property damage.
WARNING
• The information in this manual should be followed exactly.
- A fire or electrical shock may result causing property damage, personal injury or death.
• Any person should not step or sit on the oven door. You should install the Anti-Tip Bracket supplied with
the range.
- The range could be tipped and injury might result from spilled hot liquid, food, or the range itself.
- If the range is pulled away from the wall for cleaning, service, or any other reason, ensure that the Anti-Tip
Device is properly reengaged when the range is pushed back against the wall.
- Install the Anti-Tip Bracket. Screws must be fixed to at least two locations.
- A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.
- Failure to do so can result in death or serious burns to children or adults.
- 1) According to the Anti-Tip Bracket Template, install Anti-Tip Bracket to the floor and wall.
- Anti-Tip will fasten the range by holding the range’s leg from the rear side and the Anti-Tip Bracket Template
lets you know the location of Anti-Tip Bracket easily.
- 2) Engage the range to the Anti-Tip Bracket by putting the range’s legs into each Anti-Tip Bracket.
- 3) Re-engage the Anti-Tip Bracket if you can move the range without oven’s front direction.
- 4) See installation instructions for details (refer to the page 11).
• You should use two or more people to move and install range. (Excessive Weight Hazard)
- Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
• You never pull or push any handles of upper& lower door to move and install range.
- Failure to do so can result in serious damage to the door of the range.
• New branch-circuit installations (1996 NEC) for mobile homes, recreational vehicles, and installations
where local codes do not allow grounding through the neutral wire require a 4-conductor UL listed range
cord or 4 wire conduit connection.
• Power supply cord and plug should not be modified. If it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet
Installed by a qualified electrician.
SAFETY

WARNING
• Using an extension cord to connect the power is prohibited.
The way to connect the power cord and plug directly is strongly recommended.
• Electrical ground is required on this appliance.
• You should make sure that the power cord is not pinched by the range or heavy objects.
- Failure to do so can result in serious burns or electrical shock.
• You never remove the protection cover covering the rear of lower oven.
- Failure to do so can result in serious damage to power cord. The damage causes serious burns and electric
shock.
• The middle (neutral or ground) wire of a 3 wire power cord or a 3 wire conduit has to be connected to the
middle post of the main terminal block. The remaining two wires of the power cord or conduit have to be
connected to the outside posts of the main terminal connection block.
- Failure to do so can result in electrical shock, severe personal injury or death.
• Only a 4-conductor power-supply cord kit rated 120/240 volts, 50 amperes and marked for use with
ranges with closed-loop connectors or open-end spade lugs with upturned ends shall be used. The
middle (neutral) wire of the power cord or 4-wire conduit has to be connected to the middle post of
the main terminal block. The other two wires of the power cord or conduit have to be connected to the
outside posts of the main terminal connection block. The 4th ground wire must be connected to the
frame of the range with the ground screw.
- Failure to do so can result in electrical shock, severe personal injury or death.
CAUTION
• You should put on gloves during the installation procedure.
- Failure to do so can result in bodily injury.
• You should make sure that the wall covering, countertop and cabinets around the range can withstand
the heat (up to 194°F) generated by the range.
- Discoloration, delamination or melting may occur.
- This range has been designed to comply with the maximum allowable wood cabinet temperatures of 194°F.
• Cabinet storage space located above the surface units should be avoided.
• You should install a range hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5 inches beyond the bottom of
the cabinets. If cabinet Storage is to be provided.
- The risk of burns or fire by reaching over the heated surface elements can be reduced.
• You should not install the range in the humid place. Splashing the range with water or any electrolyte can
result in electrical shock.
• You should not let cooking grease or flammable material accumulate in or near the range.
- Failure to do so can result in serious burns.

WARNING
Tip - Over Hazard
If the level doesn’t show
level on the rack, adjust
the leveling legs with a

A child or adult can tip the range and be
killed. Verify the anti-tip bracket have been
installed. Ensure the anti-tip bracket is
enganged when the range is moved.
Do not operate the range without the anti-
tip bracket in place. Failure to follow these
instructions can result in death or serious
burns to children and adults.
FINAL INSTALLATION
• Move range close enough to the opening to plug into
the receptacle.
To check visually that leveling leg is inserted
into bracket, grasp the top rear edge of the
range and carefully attempt to tilt it forward.
• Slide range into position insuring that the left back leg
slides under the anti-tip bracket. Range should sit flush
against the back wall when properly installed.

• Carefully attempt to tip range forward to insure that
the anti-tip bracket is engaged properly. If properly
installed, the anti-bracket will prevent the range from
being tipped. If the range can be tipped, reinstall the
range until the bracket is properly installed and the
range will not tip forward.
1. Locate the bracket using the template
An Anti-tip bracket is packaged with template. The
instructions include necessary information to
complete the installation.
• Turn on electrical power. Check the range for proper
operation as described in owner’s manual.
Read and follow range installation instruction sheet
(template).
2. Level the range
Level the range by adjusting the leveling legs with a
