If the range is operated while at a lower height relative to the adjacent cabinet, the cabinet could be exposed to excessive temperatures, causing damage to the cabinet and countertop. 3. As the range is moved into its final, installed position, verify that the anti-tip bracket is in a position to engage the appliance. To level 60'' models 1. Height adjustments of the two rear caster legs are made by turning the 5/16'' socket located behind the front frame. Leveling leg adjustment For proper performance, the range must be level. Priority should be placed on ensuring that the oven cavities are also level for optimum cooking performance. To level 36'' and 48'' models 1.

Placing and leveling the range
9
CAUTION
The top edges of the range’s side panels must be on
the same or higher level as the adjacent countertop.
DO NOT
operate range if sides are lower than the
adjacent cabinet. If the range is operated while at a
lower height relative to the adjacent cabinet, the
cabinet could be exposed to excessive temperatures,
causing damage to the cabinet and countertop.
Leveling leg adjustment
For proper performance, the range must be level. Priority
should be placed on ensuring that the oven cavities are
also level for optimum cooking performance.
To level 36'' and 48'' models
1.
Measure the countertop heights first with a tape
measure and add an additional 1/16'' - 1/8'' (2-3 mm).
2.
Rotate the legs using a 12'' (305 mm) adjustable
wrench on the flat sides of each foot.
•
Leveling legs should be adjusted so that the range
sides are at the same or higher level as the
adjacent cabinet. Adjust the legs accordingly prior
to pushing the range back to its final location.
•
It may be necessary to reposition the gas supply
line and the electrical cord as the range is pushed
back to its final position. This may be
accomplished by carefully pulling on a rope or
twine looped around the gas or electrical supply
line as the range is pushed back into its final
installed position.
3.
As the range is moved into its final, installed position,
verify that the anti-tip bracket is in a position to
engage the appliance.
To level 60'' models
1.
Height adjustments of the two rear caster legs are
made by turning the 5/16'' socket located behind the
front frame.
•
Rotation direction will vary depending on which
side of the appliance is being adjusted.
•
The oven doors must be removed in order to
access the leveling socket for the rear wheels (see
“Door removal and adjustment”. On models with
a warming drawer, the socket for the left caster
may be accessed by pulling the warming drawer
open.
