Leveling the range

8.1
Models Equipped with Leveling Device
Level the range after installation in the cutout
opening.
1. Open the range drawer. The leveling screws control
the height of the rear wheels.
2. Adjust the appliance wheels and legs as follows
until the underside of the cooktop surface is sitting
level on the countertop (Figure 9).
a. To adjust the front legs, use a wrench on
the leg base and turn clockwise to lower or
counterclockwise to raise.
b. To adjust the rear wheels, use a ratchet
or a nutdriver and turn the leveling screws
counterclockwise to lower or clockwise to raise.
3. Check if the range is level by installing an oven rack
in the center of the oven and placing a level on the
rack (Figure 10).
4. Take 2 readings with the level placed diagonally in
one direction and then the other. Level the range,
if necessary, by adjusting the leveling legs and
wheels.
5. If the range cannot be level, contact a carpenter to
correct sagging or sloping floor.
6. After leveling the range, the rear leveling legs
(located beside the rear wheels) must be lowered
almost to the floor level (leave a small gap). This is
necessary to secure the unit to the anti-tip bracket.
