Installing the anti-tip bracket
(required)
For all ranges, an anti-tip device must be installed as per
these instructions.
9 WARNING
RANGE TIPPING HAZARD:
• All ranges can tip and injury can result. To
prevent accidental tipping of the range,
attach it to the floor by installing the anti-tip
bracket supplied.
• A risk of tip-over may exist if the appliance
is not installed in accordance with these
instructions. For all ranges an anti-tip device
MUST be installed.
• A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.
• DO NOT operate the range without the anti-tip
device in place and engaged. Failure to do so can
result in death or serious burns to children or
adults.
• If the range is pulled away from the wall for
cleaning, service or for any other reason, ensure
that the anti-tip device is properly re-engaged
when the range is pushed back against the wall. In
the event of abnormal usage (such as a person
standing, sitting, or leaning on an open door),
failure to take this precaution can result in tipping
of the range. Personal injury might result from
spilled hot liquids or from the range itself.
9 WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD:
• Use extreme caution when drilling holes into the
wall or floor as there may be concealed electrical
wires.
• Identify the electrical circuits that could be
affected by the installation of the anti-tip bracket,
then turn off power to these circuits.
• Failure to follow these instructions may result in
electrical shock or other personal injury.
IMPORTANT:
• Hardware provided is for mounting through standard
thickness wood studs. Installers are responsible to
provide hardware for other types of mounting
situations.
• Contact a qualified installer or contractor to
determine the proper method for drilling holes
through the wall or floor material (such as ceramic tile,
hardwood, etc.)
• The bracket may be attached to a solid wood surface
having a minimum wall thickness of ¾'' (19 mm).
• The thickness of the wall or floor may require use of
longer screws, available at your local hardware store.
• In all cases, at least two (2) of the bracket mounting
screws must be fastened to solid wood surface.
• Use appropriate anchors when fastening the mounting
bracket to any material other than hard-wood or
metal.
• If the range is moved to a new location, the anti-tip
device must be removed and reinstalled.
