All ranges can tip and injury
could result. To reduce the risk of tipping of the
appliance from abnormal usage by excessive
loading of the oven door, the appliance must
be secured to wall and floor by installing the
Anti-Tip device supplied. If it is not, there is
a possible risk of the range tipping over and
causing injury if you or a child stand, sit or lean
on an open door. Please refer to the Anti-Tip
device information in the Installation Manual.
To check if the device is properly installed and engaged, look
underneath the range with a flashlight to make sure one of
the rear leveling legs is properly engaged in the bracket slot.
The Anti-Tip device secures the rear leveling leg to the floor
when properly engaged. You should check this anytime the
range has been moved.
