Do not attach the anti-tip bracket directly to floor coverings suchas ceramic/asphalt tile or linoleum.• Four plastic anchors are provided with three sizes (4 each)of #8 and #12 Phillips head screws for attaching the anti-tipbracket to the floor. Use both anchors and four of the screwsto attach the bracket to a concrete sub-floor. Do not useanchors on a wood sub-floor.• Determine the location of the range center line and frontpanel for the range’s final position (see Product Dimen-sions, Pg. 13) and the actual cabinet/cutout dimensionsused for the installation.
