Figure 1: Cabinet Clearances

English 2

Required Clearances:

These clearance instructions were determined using Standard American cabinets. Standard base cabinets measure 36" (91.4 cm) high x 24" (60.9 cm) deep. Cabinets over the cooking surface and cabinets adjacent to those over the cooking surface measure 13 inches (33 cm) deep from backwall. If nonstandard cabinets are used, care should be taken to alter dimensions accordingly.

NOTE: Some cabinet finishes cannot survive the temperatures allowed by U.L.for appliances, particularly self-cleaning ovens; the cabinets may discolor or stain. This is most noticeable with laminated cabinets.

From cooktop to materials above:

There must be a minimum clearance of 30 inches (76.2 cm) between the top of the cooking surface and the bottom of an unprotected wood or metal cabinet.

Verify that wiring to house is adequate.

Contact your local utility company to verify that the present electric service to your home is adequate. In some instances, the size of the wiring to the house and service switch must be increased to handle the electrical load demanded by the range.

Verify that wiring inside house is adequate.

Most wiring codes require a separate circuit with separate disconnect switch and fuses either in the main entrance panel or in a separate switch and fuse box. Most local building regulations and codes require that electrical wiring be done by licensed electricians. Be sure to install your range according to the electric codes in place in your region.

General Information

Ranges are dual rated for use on either 120/240 VAC or 120/208 VAC. See chart at right for power ratings and circuit breaker sizes based upon the supply voltage for each model.

We recommend that the range be installed with a UL approved power cord set (not supplied). The electrical rating of the power cord set must be 120/240 volt, 50 amperes minimum. The power cord set shall be marked “For Use with Ranges.” Always use a new power cord. Alternatively, the range can also be hard wired using the aluminum terminal lugs included in the literature pack. If using this connection, flexible conduit must also be used (not supplied).

We recommend a 50 AMP, 60 Hz, 4 wire circuit; However, the NEC (National Electric Code) allows for some ranges to be installed on a 40 AMP circuit. Refer to your local electric code requirements in order to determine the required amperage. Always choose a range power cord set that is rated for the circuit. In compliance with the NEC, a separate circuit is also recommended.

Note: In Canada, the range is shipped from the factory with the range cord already installed. Proceed to Step 9.

English 4

For installations other than those in Canada, in stall the strain relief and connect the range cord (or wire conductors) as described in the following steps.

	Table 1: Electrical Specifications
	Check data plate for kW rating. Reference kW rating in table to determine amper-
	age requirements.

Installation
Installation Tips	• Tape warming drawer or storage drawer shut to keep it from opening while
	installing the range.

•During installation, place a portion of the box or a piece of cloth under the range to protect floors.

•To make range lighter and easier to handle, remove door (see instructions in Use and Care manual).

1)	Install Ventilation	We strongly recommend the installation of a ventilation hood above this range.
		For most kitchens a certified hood rating of not less than 300 CFM is recom-
		mended. The range hood must be installed according to instructions furnished
		with the hood.
2)	Prepare Walls and Floor	Seal any holes in the walls or floor. Remove any obstructions (extra electrical or
		gas connections, etc.) so that range will rest against wall properly.
3)	Prepare Range	Place range in front of cabinets where it is to be installed. Remove any packaging.
4)	Install Strain Relief	WARNING: The strain relief provided with your range cord must be
		properly installed.

Place strain relief in knockout below terminal block (See Figure 4). Feed range cord through hole and strain relief up to terminal block. Allow for slack in the cord between the strain relief and terminal block. Once cord length/ slack has been adjusted, attach strain relief per instructions included with strain relief.

Tip: The knockout panel (below the terminal block) can be removed from the range to install the strain relief: Remove panel from range, install strain relief in panel and reattach. DO NOT remove entire range back panel.

Electrical connection (found behind terminal block cover)

Feed range cord through strain relief in knockout panel here.

Figure 4: Electrical Connection and Strain Releif Knockout Panel Locations

There are four possible electrical connections:

1.Four wire range cord

2.Three wire range cord

3.Four wire flexible conduit connection (hard wire)

4.Three wire flexible conduit connection (hard wire)

	The four wire range cord connection is the recommended method, but where local
	codes permit, three wire connections are also acceptable.
	As an alternative to the range cord, the appliance can also be hard wired with
	either a three or four wire connection. In this case, the terminal lugs supplied must
	be used.
	Always verify that your chosen connection complies with all applicable codes. See
	"Electrical Specifications" at the beginning of this manual for further information.
5) Connect Electric	WARNING: To prevent electrical shock, the grounding prong on the
	range cord should not be cut or removed under any circumstances. It
	must be plugged into a matching grounding type receptacle and con-
	nected to a correctly polarized 240Volt circuit. If there is any doubt as to whether
	the wall receptacle is properly grounded, have it checked by a qualified electri-
	cian.
	WARNING: Risk of Electric Shock or Fire. Frame grounded to
	neutral through a ground strap. Grounding through the neutral conduc-
	tor is prohibited for new branch-circuit installations (1996 NEC), mobile
	homes, and recreational vehicles, or in an area where local codes prohibit ground-
	ing through the neutral conductor.
	For installations where grounding through the neutral conductor is prohibited, (a)
	disconnect the link from the neutral, (b) use grounding terminal or lead to ground
	unit, (c) connect neutral terminal to lead branch circuit neutral in usual manner

English 6

(when the appliance is to be connected by means of a cord kit, use 4-conductor cord for this purpose)

Figure 5: Grounding Options

Use only cord kits rated 125/250 volts (minimum), 50 amperes and labeled “For Use with Ranges”. Strain relief provided with cord must be installed per instructions included with cord.

6) Attach anti-tip bracket to floor		WARNING

RANGE TIPPING HAZARD

All ranges can tip and injury could result. To prevent accidental tipping of the range, attach it to the wall, floor or cabinet by installing the Anti-Tip Device supplied.

English 12

•A risk of tip-over may exist if the appliance is not installed in accordance with these instructions.

•If the range is pulled away from the wall for cleaning, service, or any other reason, ensure that the Anti-Tip Device is properly reengaged when the range is pushed back against the wall. In the event of abnormal usage (such as a person standing, sitting, or leaning on an open door), failure to take this precaution could result in tipping of the range. Personal injury might result from spilled hot liquids or from the range itself.

1.Adjust height of range and level by rotating the adjustable leg supports on the bottom of the range, using 1-1/4" (31.75 mm) wrench.
