1. Remove the storage drawer. See “Storage Drawer” section.

2. Use a flashlight to look underneath the bottom of the range.

3. Visually check that the rear range foot is inserted into the slot 

of the anti-tip bracket.

1. Place the outside of your foot against the bottom front of the 

warming drawer or premium storage drawer, and grasp the 
lower right or left side of the control panel as shown.

NOTE: If your countertop is mounted with a backsplash, it 
may be necessary to grasp the range higher than is shown in 
the illustration.

2. Slowly attempt to tilt the range forward. 

If you encounter immediate resistance, the range foot is 
engaged in the anti-tip bracket.

3. If the rear of the range lifts more than ½" (1.3 cm) off the floor 

without resistance, stop tilting the range and lower it gently 
back to the floor. The range foot is not engaged in the anti-tip 
bracket.

IMPORTANT: If there is a snapping or popping sound when lifting 
the range, the range may not be fully engaged in the bracket. 
Check to see if there are obstructions keeping the range from 
sliding to the wall or keeping the range foot from sliding into the 
bracket. Verify that the bracket is held securely in place by the 
mounting screws.

4. Slide the range forward, and verify that the anti-tip bracket is 

securely attached to the floor or wall.

5. Slide range back so the rear range foot is inserted into the 

slot of the anti-tip bracket.

IMPORTANT: If the back of the range is more than 2" (5.1 cm) 
from the mounting wall, the rear range foot may not engage the 
bracket. Slide the range forward and determine if there is an 
obstruction between the range and the mounting wall. If you 
need assistance or service, refer to the “Assistance or Service” 
section of the Use and Care Guide, or the cover or “Warranty” 
section of the User Instructions, for contact information.
