• Restores structural enclosure at the lower back of the appliance cabinet
• Helps maintain proper airflow paths and prevents accidental contact with internal parts
• Reduces rattles or vibration caused by a loose or damaged rear panel

Install notes:

• Basic hand tools required; disconnect power and gas before starting
• Remove any obstructing panels or kickplates to access mounting fasteners
• Handle edges carefully — metal panels may have sharp edges; wear gloves
• If screws or clips are damaged, replace with OEM-specified fasteners for a secure fit
