■
It is the installer’s responsibility to comply with installation
clearances specified on the model/serial rating plate. The
model/serial rating plate is located behind the storage drawer
on the right-hand side of the oven frame.

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

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.

must be sealed.

■
Proper gas supply connection must be available. See “Gas
Supply Requirements” section.

installing range over carpeting.
In the State of Massachusetts, the following installation instructions apply:
