RANGESAFETY

Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety

messages.

This is the safety alert symbol. This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING."

These words mean:

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately

follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow instructions.

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

Bracket

Tip Over Hazard

A child or adult can tip the range and be killed. Install anti-tip bracket to floor or wall per installation instructions.

Slide range back so rear range foot is engaged in the slot of the anti-tip bracket. Re-engage anti-tip bracket if range is moved. Do not operate range without anti-tip bracket installed and engaged.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious burns to children and adults.

To verify the anti-tip bracket is installed and engaged:

• Slide range forward.

• Look for the anti-tip bracket securely attached to floor or wall.

• Slide range back so rear range foot is under anti-tip bracket.

• See installation instructions for details.

A.Anti-tip bracket B.#12 x 18/8"screws (2)

Anti-tip bracket must be securely mounted to floor or wall. Thickness of flooring may require longer screws to anchor

bracket to floor.

Parts needed

If using a power supply cord kit:

• A UL listed power supply cord kit marked for use with ranges. The cord should be rated at 250 volts minimum, 40 amps or 50 amps that is marked for use with nominal 13/8"(3.5 cm) diameter connection opening and must end in ring terminals or open-end spade terminals with upturned ends.

• A UL listed strain relief.

Check local codes. Check existing electrical supply. See the appropriate "Electrical Requirements" section.

It is recommended that all electrical connections be made by a licensed, qualified electrical installer.

• Masking tape

• 1¼.drive ratchet

• 1¼.nut driver

• 3/8"and 8/16"nut driver

• 1/8"(3.2 mm) drill bit (for wood floors)

• Tin snips or large wire

cutters (for cutting ground

strap if necessary)

IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

• It is the installeCs responsibility to comply with installation clearances specified on the model/serial rating plate. The model/serial rating plate is located on the left side frame behind the storage drawer panel or behind the top right side

of the oven door. To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching over heated

surface units, cabinet storage space located above the surface units should be avoided. If cabinet storage is to be provided, the risk can be reduced by installing a range hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5" (12.7 cm) beyond

the bottom of the cabinets. Cabinet opening dimensions that are shown must be used.

Given dimensions are minimum clearances. The anti-tip bracket must be installed. To install the anti-tip

bracket shipped with the range, see "Install Anti-Tip Bracket" section.

• Grounded electrical supply is required. See the appropriate "Electrical Requirements" section.

IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to your cabinets, check with your builder or cabinet supplier to make sure that the materials used will not discolor, delaminate or sustain other damage. This oven has been designed in accordance with the requirements of UL and CSA International and complies with the maximum allowable wood cabinet temperatures of 194 ° (90°C).

Mobile Home - Additional Installation Requirements

The installation of this range must conform to the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standard, Title 24 CFR, Part 3280 (formerly the Federal Standard for Mobile Home Construction and Safety, Title 24, HUD Part 280). When such standard is not applicable, use the Standard for Manufactured Home

Installations, ANSI A225.1/NFPA 501A or local codes. Mobile home installations require:

• When this range is installed in a mobile home, it must be secured per the instructions in this document.

• Four-wire power supply cord or cable must be used in a mobile home installation. The appliance wiring will need to be revised. See "Electrical Connection - U.S.A. Only" section.

Electrical Connection

To properly install your range, you must determine the type of electrical connection you will be using and follow the instructions provided for it here.

• Range must be connected to the proper electrical voltage and frequency as specified on the model/serial rating plate. The model/serial rating plate is located on the left side frame behind the storage drawer panel or behind the top right side of the oven door. Refer to the figures in "Product Dimensions" in the "Location Requirements" section.

• This range is manufactured with the neutral terminal connected to the cabinet. Use a 3-wire, UL listed, 40- or 50- amp power supply cord (pigtail) (see the following Range Rating chart). If local codes do not permit ground through the neutral, use a 4-wire power supply cord rated at 250 volts, 40 or 50 amps and investigated for use with ranges.

Range Rating* Specified Rating of

Power Supply Cord Kit

and Circuit Protection

120/240 Volts 120/208 Volts Amps

8.8 - 16.5 KW 7.8 - 12.5 KW 40 or 50**

16.6 - 22.5 KW 12.6 - 18.5 KW 50 *The NEC calculated load is less than the total connected load

listed on the model/serial rating plate.

**If connecting to a 50-amp circuit, use a 50-amp rated cord with

kit. For 50-amp rated cord kits, use kits that specify use with a

nominal 13/8"(34.9 mm) diameter connection opening.

• A circuit breaker is recommended.

• The range can be connected directly to the circuit breaker box (or fused disconnect) through flexible or nonmetallic sheathed, copper or aluminum cable. See the "Electrical Connection - U.S.A. Only" section.

• Allow 2 to 3 ft (61.0 cm to 91.4 cm) of slack in the line so that the range can be moved if servicing is ever necessary.

• A UL listed conduit connector must be provided at each end of the power supply cable (at the range and at the junction box).

• Wire sizes and connections must conform with the rating of the range.

• The wiring diagram is located on the Tech Sheet.

• The Tech Sheet is located on the back of the range inside a clear plastic bag.

If connecting to a 4-wire system:

This range is manufactured with the ground connected to the neutral by a link. The ground must be revised so the green ground wire of the 4-wire power supply cord is connected to the cabinet. See "Electrical Connection - U.S.A. Only" section.

Grounding through the neutral conductor is prohibited for new branch-circuit installations (1996 NEC); mobile homes; and recreational vehicles, or an area where local codes prohibit grounding through the neutral conductor.

When a 4-wire receptacle of NEMA Type 14-50R is used, a matching UL listed, 4-wire, 250-volt, 40- or 50-amp, range power supply cord (pigtail) must be used. This cord contains 4 copper conductors with ring terminals or open-end spade terminals with upturned ends, terminating in a NEMA Type 14-50P plug on the supply end.

The fourth (grounding) conductor must be identified by a green or green/yellow cover and the neutral conductor by a white cover. Cord should be Type SRD or SRDT with a UL listed strain relief and be at least 4 ft (1.22 m) long.

4-wire receptacle (14-50R)

The minimum conductor sized for the copper 4-wire power cord are:

40-amp circuit 2 No.-8 conductors

1 No.-10 white neutral 1 No.-8 green grounding

If connecting to a 3-wire system:

Local codes may permit the use of a UL listed, 3-wire, 250-volt, 40- or 50-amp range power supply cord (pigtail). This cord contains 3 copper conductors with ring terminals or open-end spade terminals with upturned ends, terminating in a NEMA Type 10-50P plug on the supply end. Connectors on the appliance end must be provided at the point the power supply cord enters the appliance. This uses a 3-wire receptacle of NEMA Type 10-50R.
