Read these instructions completely and carefully.
Level the Range
Install the oven shelves in the oven and
position the range where it will be installed.
Check for levelness by placing a spirit level
or a cup, partially filled with water, on one
of the oven shelves. If using a spirit level, take
two readings—with the level placed diagonally
first in one direction and then the other.
Remove the lower oven drawer. See the
Care
and cleaning of the range
section. The front
leveling legs can be adjusted from the bottom
and the rear legs can be adjusted from the top
or the bottom.
Use an open-end or adjustable wrench to
adjust the leveling legs until the range is level.
WARNING:
Never completely
remove the leveling leg as the range will not
be secured to the anti-tip device properly.
After the range is level, slide the range away
from the wall so that the Anti-Tip device can
be installed.
