30" ELECTRIC SLIDE-IN RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Standard Installation

The range cooktop overlaps the countertop at the 
sides and the range rests on the floor. The cooktop is 
31½" (80 cm) wide.

Install base cabinets 30" (76.2 cm) apart. Make sure 
they are plumb and level before attaching cooktop. 
Shave raised countertop edge to clear 31½" (80 cm) 
wide range top rim.

Install cabinet doors 32" (81.3 cm) min. apart so as 
not to interfere with range door opening.

Cutout countertop exactly as shown on page 1.

Make sure the two front leveling legs and the rear 
leveling wheels (see page 11) are setup higher than 
the height of the cabinet (shown on page 3).

Remove and discard the two rear leveling legs, they are 
only in place to solidify the unit for the transport. 

 

Install  the  anti-tip  bracket  at 

this point before placing the range at its final 
position. 

Follow the installation instructions on page 

11 or on the anti-tip bracket template supplied  with 
the range.

To provide an optimum installation, the top surface 
of the countertop must be level and flat (lie on the 
same plane) around the 3 sides that are adjacent to 
range cooktop. Proper adjustments to make the top 
flat should be made or gaps between the countertop 
and the range cooktop may occur. 

 To reduce the risk of damaging your 

appliance, do not handle or manipulate it by the 
cooktop. Manipulate with care.

Position range in front of the cabinet opening.

Make sure that the underside of the cooktop clears 
the countertop. If necessary, raise the unit by lowering 
the front leveling legs and the back leveling wheels.

Level the range 

(see section 6). The floor where 

the range is to be installed must be level. Follow the 
instructions under "Leveling the Range".

Slide the range into the cutout opening.

Important Note: 

Door removal is not a requirement for

instructions.
