is less than 12” clearance from a combustible back
wall and the back of the range above the cooking
surface. SEE RANGE INSTALLATION MANUAL.

backguard area of the range for island installations;
however, the Island Trim can only be used where
there is a minimum of 12” horizontal clearance
between a combustible back wall and the back of
the range.

on the back of the range, as shown in the illustration.
(Remove the griddle or grill assembly for sufficient
installation clearance on griddle or grill models.)

WARNING

To avoid possible burn or fire hazard,
a backguard designed specifically for
this range must be installed whenever
the range is used.

with four (4) Torx-head screws to the range side
panels, and eight (8) screws to the bottom flange
and area around the cooling fan. See the (12)
locations identified (by arrows) in the illustration.
IMPORTANT: All 12 screw locations must be
used for proper air movement behind the
backguard.

· The Pot-and-Pan Shelf models require pre-

assembly of the top panel to the shell using nine (9)
of the enclosed Torx-head screws. For sufficient
load strength, YOU MUST attach the two (2) Torx-
head screws through the back corners of the top
down into the shelf.

· To secure the front of the back guard, install three

(3) of the Torx head screws through the lower front
panel of the backguard, into the flange at the back
of the range’s cooktop.

above the cooktop to keep foods hot or store
cooking pans.  OBSERVE CAUTIONS BELOW
