The model/serial number rating plate is located behind the oven door on the top right-hand side of the oven frame. ■ The range should be located for convenient use in the kitchen. ■ Recessed installations must provide complete enclosure of the sides and rear of the range. ■ To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over heated surface units, cabinet storage space located above the surface units should be avoided. If cabinet storage is to be provided, the risk can be reduced by installing a range hood or microwave hood combination that projects horizontally a minimum of 5" (12.7 cm) beyond the bottom of the cabinets. ■ All openings in the wall or floor where range is to be installed must be sealed. ■ Cabinet opening dimensions that are shown must be used. Given dimensions are minimum clearances. ■ The anti-tip bracket must be installed. To install the anti-tip bracket shipped with the range, see "Install Anti-Tip Bracket" section. ■ Grounded electrical supply is required. See the appropriate "Electrical Requirements" section. ■ Contact a qualified floor covering installer to check that the floor covering can withstand at least 200°F (93°C). ■ Use an insulated pad or ¼" (0.64 cm) plywood under range if installing range over carpeting. IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to your cabinets, check with your builder or cabinet supplier to make sure that the materials used will not discolor, delaminate or sustain other damage. This oven has been designed in accordance with the requirements of UL and CSA International and complies with the maximum allowable wood cabinet temperatures of 194°F (90°C). 3
