1 REMOVE PACKAGING MATERIALS: Failure to remove packaging
materials could result in damage to the appliance. Remove all packing parts from oven, racks, heating elements and drawer. Also, remove protective film and labels on the outer door, cooktop and control panel.
2 PREPARE THE OPENING (FOR INDOOR USE ONLY)
See illustrations for all rough-in and spacing dimensions. The range may be placed with 0” clearance (flush) at the back wall and side walls of the cabinet.

MINIMUM DIMENSIONS BETWEEN COOKTOP, WALLS AND ABOVE THE COOKTOP:
A.Make sure the wall covering, countertop, flooring and cabinets around the range can withstand the heat (up to 200°F) generated by the range. 0” to cabinets below cooktop and at the range back.
B.Allow 30” minimum clearance between surface units and bottom of unprotected wood or metal cabinet, or allow a 24” minimum when bottom of wood or metal cabinet is protected by no less than 1/4” thick flame retardant millboard covered with not less than No.
28 MSG sheet metal, (.015”), .015” thick stainless steel, .024” aluminum or .020” copper.

C.This appliance has been approved for 0” spacing to
adjacent surfaces above the cooktop. However, a 6” minimum spacing to surfaces less than 15” above the cooktop and adjacent cabinet is recommended to reduce exposure to steam, grease splatter and heat.
To reduce the risk of burns or fire when reaching over hot surface elements, cabinet storage space above the cooktop should be avoided. If cabinet storage space is to be provided above the cooktop, the risk can be reduced by installing a range hood that projects at least 5” beyond the front of the cabinets. Cabinets installed above the cooktop must be no deeper than 16”.
3 ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
WARNING This appliance must be properly grounded.
WARNING All new constructions, mobile homes, recreational vehicles and installations where local codes do not allow grounding through neutral, require a 4-conductor UL-listed range cord.
WARNING To prevent fire or shock, do not use an extension cord with this appliance.
WARNING To prevent shock, remove house fuse or open circuit breaker before beginning installation.
We recommend you have the electrical wiring and hookup of your range connected by a qualified electrician. After installation, have the electrician show you how to disconnect power from the range.
You must use a single-phase, 120/208 VAC or 120/240 VAC, 60 hertz electrical system. If you connect to aluminum wiring, properly installed connectors approved for use with aluminum wiring must be used.
Effective January 1, 1996, the National Electrical Code requires that new construction (not existing) utilize a 4-conductor connection to an electric range. When installing an electric range in new construction, mobile home, recreational vehicle, or an area where local codes prohibit grounding through the neutral conductor, refer to the section on four-conductor branch circuit connections.
Check with your local utilities for electrical codes which apply in your area. Failure to wire your oven according to governing codes could result in a hazardous condition. If there are no local codes, your oven must be wired and fused to meet the National Electrical Code, NFPA No. 70 – latest edition, available from the National Fire Protection Association.
This appliance must be supplied with the proper voltage and frequency, and connected to an individual, properly grounded, 40 amp (minimum) branch circuit protected by a circuit breaker or time-delay fuse.
Use only a 3-conductor or a 4-conductor UL-listed range cord. These cords may be provided with ring terminals on wire and a strain relief device.
A range cord rated at 40 amps with 125/250 minimum volt range is required. A 50 amp range cord is not recommended but if used, it should be marked for use with nominal 13»8” diameter connection openings. Care should be taken to center the cable and strain relief within the knockout hole to keep the edge from damaging the cable.
The rating plate is located on the oven frame or on the side of the drawer frame.
NOTE: Use of automatic, wireless or wired external switches that shut off power to the appliances, are not recommended for this product.

CFor power cord installations only (see the next step if using conduit), assemble the strain relief in the hole. Insert the power cord through the strain relief and tighten. Allow enough slack to easily attach the cord terminals to the terminal block. If tabs are present at the end of the winged strain relief, they can be removed for better fit.
NOTE: Do not install the power cord without a strain relief. The strain relief bracket MUST be installed before reinstalling the rear range wiring cover.

DFor 3/4” conduit installations only, purchase a squeeze connector matching the diameter
of your conduit and assemble it in the hole. Insert the conduit through the squeeze connector and tighten. Allow enough slack to easily attach the wires to the terminal block. NOTE: Do not install the conduit without a squeeze connector. The squeeze connector MUST be installed before reinstalling the rear terminal block.

63-WIRE INSTALLATION (GROUND IS THROUGH THE NEUTRAL WIRE)
WARNING Shock Hazard
The neutral wire and ground strap must be connected as shown below for the range to be properly grounded. Do not remove the ground strap. Failure follow this instruction may result in potential shock hazard.
WARNING Fire hazard
Terminal block screws must be securely tightened. Failure to do so may result in potential fire hazard.
FOR POWER CORD INSTALLATION
A.Remove the 3 lower screws from the terminal block. Do not loosen the upper screws.
B.Do not cut or remove the ground strap.
C.Insert the 3 screws through each power cord terminal ring and back into the terminal block. Be certain the white wire is in the center. Securely tighten each screw (35 to 50 in-lbs.)
