Adjust Leveling Legs 1. If range height adjustment is necessary, use a wrench or pliers to loosen the four leveling legs. This may be done with the range on its back or with the range supported on two legs after the range has been placed back to a standing position. NOTE: To place range back up into a standing position, put a sheet of cardboard or hardboard in front of range. Using two or more people, stand range back up onto the cardboard or hardboard. WARNING Level Range Determine if you have AquaLift® Technology or Steam Clean by referring to the "Range Maintenance and Care" section. For Ranges with AquaLift® Technology or Steam Clean: 1. Place level on the oven bottom as indicated in one of the two figures below depending on the size of the level. Check with the level: side to side and front to back. Tip Over Hazard A child or adult can tip the range and be killed. Install anti-tip bracket to floor or wall per installation instructions. Slide range back so rear range foot is engaged in the slot of the anti-tip bracket. Re-engage anti-tip bracket if range is moved. Do not operate range without anti-tip bracket installed and engaged. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious burns to children and adults. 2. Measure the distance from the top of the counter to the floor. 3. Measure the distance from the top of the cooktop to the bottom of the leveling legs. This distance should be the same. If it is not, adjust the leveling legs to the correct height. The leveling legs can be loosened to add up to a maximum of 1" (2.5 cm). A minimum of 3/16" (5 mm) is needed to engage the anti-tip bracket. NOTE: If height adjustment is made when range is standing, tilt the range back to adjust the front legs, and then tilt forward to adjust the rear legs. 4. When the range is at the correct height, check that there is adequate clearance under the range for the anti-tip bracket. Before sliding range into its final location, check that the antitip bracket will slide under the range and onto the rear leveling leg prior to anti-tip bracket installation. NOTE: If a Trim Kit will be used, the top of the cooktop should be higher than the counter. See the Installation Instructions included with the Trim Kit for the correct height. 2. If range is not level, pull range forward until rear leveling leg is removed from the anti-tip bracket. 3. Follow the directions in Style 1 or Style 2, depending on the style of drawer supplied with the range. For Ranges without AquaLift® Technology or Steam Clean: 1. Place a standard flat rack in oven. 2. Place level on the rack and check levelness of the range, first side to side; then front to back. 3. If range is not level, pull range forward until rear leveling leg is removed from the anti-tip bracket. 4. Follow the directions in Style 1 or Style 2, depending on the style of drawer supplied with the range. Style 1: Ranges Equipped with a Storage Drawer: Use a 1/4" drive ratchet, wrench or pliers to adjust leveling legs up or down until the range is level. Push range back into position. Check that rear leveling leg is engaged in the anti-tip bracket. Style 2: Ranges Equipped with a Warming Drawer or Premium Storage Drawer: Use a wrench or pliers to adjust leveling legs up or down until the range is level. Push range back into position. Check that rear leveling leg is engaged in the anti-tip bracket. NOTE: Range must be level for satisfactory baking performance and best cleaning results using AquaLift® Technology and Steam Clean functions. 10
