For personal safety, any mounting surface for this product must be capable of supporting the product’s weight of 55 lbs (25 kg), taking into account additional oven loads of up to 22 lbs (10 kg). The total weight will be about 77 lbs (35 kg).
Proper installation of this product requires that the product be partially supported by the bottom surface of the cabinet directly above the mounting location. Therefore reinforcing this bottom might be necessary if the cabinet cannot support the weight requirement mentioned above.
Then, you must ensure you have all the necessary tools ready: adhesive tape, tape measure, screwdriver, electric or hand drill, side cutter or tin snips, metal file, electric or hand jigsaw, and marking pen. Plus, you will need specific hardware, for example, screws of different sizes and diameters, a metal brace, a flat washer, toggle bolts and others.
Exhaust Preparation: it will depend on the type of ventilation required for your installation (top exhaust, recirculating, rear exhaust). If your oven is vented into the kitchen, the standard charcoal filter is already installed in your oven, ready for recirculating mode.
To prepare the bottom surface of the top cabinet and the wall, holes must be drilled or cut into these surfaces. A template is provided for preparing these holes.
Fold the template along a “Rear wall” dotted line. Align the center line with the center line on the wall and the top cabinet. Tape the template underneath the top cabinet and the wall.
Note: To support the oven’s weight, the bracket must be secured by at least four wood screws on the wall studs (2 screws on each side) or two wood screws on the wall studs and 4 toggle bolts through the wall.
Note: If Rear Exhaust is chosen, the product needs a Rear Wall Exhaust cutout opening for the Rear Wall duct, and the Exhaust adaptor must be installed on the bracket with two screws.
Remove contents from inside the oven, including the glass tray and wire rack. Be sure to close the door. Remove all contents from the upper kitchen cabinet.
Place a piece of cardboard or blanket on the cooktop, and place the oven on the cardboard or blanket. Before sliding the oven on the bracket assembly, ensure the power supply cord is accessible through the cabinet.
Lift and install the oven onto the bracket by sliding it over the bracket rails. This is easily and safely accomplished with one person on each side of the oven. Push the oven back until it is flush with the wall.
Pull the power supply cord throughout, and be careful not to pinch it between the oven’s outer case and the cabinet’s bottom. The oven should fit snugly underneath the lip of the bracket’s upper edge.
Insert one screw with a flat washer through the left hole drilled through the top cabinet’s bottom and into the top of the oven. Then, insert another screw with a flat washer and the metal brace through the right hole into the top of the oven.
Grasp the ring of the air filter, insert the end of the air filter without the ring into the opening, and slide back into the position.
Having a gas appliance may pay special attention to its repair and maintenance. Fix Appliances CA has knowledgeable and skillful gas fitters who can solve any problems with your gas stove. Upon our experience, our experts always receive a question: why is my gas stove flame orange, red or yellow, and what does it mean?
You might know that the flames of a perfectly safe and normal gas stove are blue-coloured. This blue colour of the gas stove flame means that your gas stove is working properly and the appropriate amount of carbon monoxide is being released.
The flames from a gas stove using natural gas need attention and care as any other colour can clue on to a possible hazard. The burners may need cleaning or adjusting if you see orange, yellow or red flames instead of blue flames. The orange colour warns you that the gas stove has inappropriate combustion and may emit treacherous carbon monoxide gas (CO) levels.
Responsible for damaging your utensils – it turns your new and shiny utensils black. Thus, it is hard or impossible to clean to its initial view. Moreover, it can reduce the overall strength of the utensil.
A yellow flame may be a sign that the burner is not obtaining enough air for the complete combustion of the gas. And in this case, this problem includes adjusting the burner’s air shutter to admit more air.
Appliance Repair BramptonAn orange flame indicates the presence of carbon monoxide resulting from incomplete combustion. It can cause problems related to food, utensils, and human health. Some of the main reasons for an orange flame can be the following:
The normal flame is blue, but if you notice a yellowish-orange flame on the stove, it is a sign of disorder. Burning an orange flame means releasing a large amount of carbon monoxide.
The other thing is that the orifices are clogged for some reason, and sometimes, proper combustion doesn’t occur, resulting in orange flames. Thus, fixing the appliance immediately to prevent any problem is a high priority.
If the flame of the gas stove is burning orange, it means that the gas stove is to be fixed immediately as it is not working properly.
Whenever you see a problem with the colour change of the flame, you should fix it as soon as possible. Having faced this problem more often, we must admit the following factors on why orange flame may appear on your gas stove and how to fix this problem:
Humidifiers are necessary but also change the flame colour from blue to orange. If your humidifier is turned on near any stove, turn it off and see whether that makes a difference.
Make sure you use the proper orifices depending on your range (whether you are using natural gas or propane). Along with this adjustment, ensure that the gas pressure regulator valve was changed and the brass orifice was adjusted.
Make sure you use the proper orifices depending on your range (whether you are using natural gas or propane). Along with this adjustment, ensure that the gas pressure regulator valve was changed and the brass orifice was adjusted.
Ensure that the gas-burning orifices on the stove are clean and free from any kind of waste. You have to clean the stove well so no clogged soot is left in the igniter or the holes. Make certain that all portholes and burners are free of debris. Cooking grease on any spillovers may block these openings and, in turn, affect the colour of the flame.
Another problem that may cause the flame to turn orange is the fuel-to-air ratio. When your burner is not getting enough air, there is no complete combustion of gas. If this is the case, adjust the burner’s air shutter to allow more air.
Orange, red or yellow flames can be very serious and harmful as it is formed due to improper gas stove work. The carbon monoxide (CO) released is poisonous and can cause severe health problems. Carbon monoxide is not a noticeable gas, so we do not even notice that we are inhaling it until it’s too late.
It is advised to deal with the gas stove properly. One should be very careful while using the gas stove. Whenever you find a tiny difference in the colour of the flame, repair it before working on it to prevent substantial consequences.
You shouldn’t worry as long as the stove flame is blue, but whenever it turns orange, you should repair it as soon as possible to avoid any hazards.
