ANTI-TIP DEVICE
To reduce the risk of tipping the range, the range must
be secured by a properly installed anti-tip bracket. See
installation instructions shipped with the bracket for
complete details before attempting to install.
Remove any currently installed anti-tip bracket and
install the bracket provided with this unit.
To check if the bracket is installed and engaged
properly, look underneath the range to see that the
rear leveling leg is engaged in the bracket. On some
models, the storage drawer or kick panel can be

any reason, be sure the anti-tip device is reengaged
properly when the range is replaced. Failure to take this
precaution could result in tipping of the range and can
result in death or serious burns to children or adults.
Never completely remove the leveling legs or the range
will not be secured to the anti-tip device properly.
