30" ELECTRIC DROP-IN RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Important Notes to the Installer
1. Read all instructions contained in these installation
instructions before installing range.
2. Remove all packing material from the oven before
connecting the electrical supply to the range.
3. Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
4. Be sure to leave these instructions with the consumer.
5. Oven door may be removed to facilitate installation.
6. Do not lift the range by the door handle.
Important Note to the Consumer
Keep these instructions with your owner's guide for future
reference.
IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
• Be sure your range is installed and grounded properly
by a qualified installer or service technician.
•This range must be electrically grounded in
accordance with local codes or, in their absence,
with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No.
70—latest edition.
•Theinstallationofappliancesdesignedfor
manufactured (mobile) home installation must conform
with Manufactured Home Construction and Safety
Standard, title 24CFR, part 3280 [Formerly the Federal
Standard for Mobile Home Construction and Safety,
title 24, HUD (part 280)] or when such standard
is not applicable, the Standard for Manufactured
Home Installation 1982 (Manufactured Home Sites,
Communities and Setups), ANSI Z225.1/NFPA 501Alatest edition, or with local codes.
• All appliance can tip.
• Injury to persons could result.
• Install anti-tip bracket packed with
your appliance.
• See Installation Instructions.
To reduce the risk of tipping of the
range, the range must be secured by
properly installed anti-tip screws, for
models with coil elements. They are
located in a plastic bag in the
oven. For smoothtop models, the anti-tip bracket
located at the rear of the range fits under the
countertop and prevents range from tipping.
Failure to install the anti-tip screws will allow the
range to tip over if excessive weight is placed on
an open door or if a child climbs upon it. Serious
injury might result from spilled hot liquids or
from the range itself.
•Make sure the wall coverings around the range
can withstand the heat generated by the range.
•Before installing the range in an area covered
with linoleum or any other synthetic floor
covering, make sure the floor covering can
withstand heat at least 90°F above room
temperature without shrinking, warping or
discoloring. Do not install the range over carpeting
unless you place an insulating pad or sheet of 1/4"
thick plywood between the range and carpeting.
Never leave children alone or
unattended in the area where an appliance is in
use. As children grow, teach them the proper, safe use
of all appliances. Never leave the oven door open when
the range is unattended.
Stepping, leaning or sitting on the
door of this range can result in serious injuries and
can also cause damage to the range.
•Do not store items of interest to children in
the cabinets above the range. Children could be
seriously burned climbing on the range to reach items.
•To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching
over heated surface units, cabinet storage space
above the surface unit should be avoided. If
cabinet storage is to be provided the risk can be
reduce by installing a range hood that project
horizontally a minimum of 5 inches beyond the bottom
of the cabinet.
•Do not use the oven as a storage space. This
creates a potentially hazardous situation.
•Never use your range for warming or heating the
room. Prolonged use of the range without adequate
ventilation can be dangerous.
•Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable
vapors and liquids near this or any other
appliance. Explosions or fires could result.
•Reset all controls to the "off" position after using
a programmable timing operation.
FOR MODELS WITH SELF-CLEAN FEATURE:
•Remove broiler pan, food and other utensils
before self-cleaning the oven. Wipe up excess
spillage. Follow the pre cleaning instructions in the Use
and Care Guide.

30" ELECTRIC DROP-IN RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Electrical Requirements
This appliance must be supplied with the proper voltage
and frequency, and connected to an individual, properly
grounded branch circuit, protected by a circuit breaker or
fuse 40A or 50A.
Observe all governing codes and local ordinances
1. A 3-wire or 4-wire single phase 120/240 or 120/208
Volt, 60 Hz AC only electrical supply is required on a
separate circuit fused on both sides of the line (red
and black wires). A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is
recommended. DO NOT fuse neutral (white wire).
NOTE: Wire sizes and connections must conform with
the fuse size and rating of the appliance in accordance
with the American National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA
No. 70-latest edition, or with Canadian CSA Standard
C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1, and local codes
and ordinances.
An extension cord should not be used
with this appliance. Such use may result in a fire,
electrical shock, or other personal injury. If you need
a longer power cord you can purchase a 10' (3 m) power
cord kit #903056-9010 by calling the Service Center.
2. These appliances should be connected to the fused
disconnect (or circuit breaker) box through flexible
armored or nonmetallic sheathed cable. The flexible
armored cable extending from the appliance should
be connected directly to the junction box. The
junction box should be located as shown in Figure
1 or Figure 2 and with as much slack as possible
remaining in the cable between the box and the
appliance, so it can be moved if servicing is ever
necessary.
3. A suitable strain relief must be provided to attach
the flexible armored cable to the junction box.

In cold weather shipping and storage
conditions, make sure that oven is in final location
at least three (3) hours before switching on power.
Switching on power while oven is still cold may damage
the oven controls.
2. Electrical connection
It is the responsibility and obligation of the consumer to
contact a qualified installer to assure that the electrical
installation is adequate and is in conformance with the
National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70-latest edition,
or with CSA Standard C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code,
Part 1, and local codes and ordinances.
Risk of electrical shock (Failure to
heed this warning may result in electrocution or
other serious injury.) This appliance is equipped
with copper lead wire. If connection is made to
aluminum house wiring, use only connectors that
are approved for joining copper and aluminum wire
in accordance with the National Electrical Code
and local code and ordinances. When installing
connectors having screws which bear directly on
the steel and/or aluminum flexible conduit, do no
tighten screws sufficiently to damage the flexible
conduit. Do not over bend or excessively distort
flexible conduit to avoid separation of convolutions
en exposure of internal wires.
DO NOT ground to a gas supply pipe. DO NOT connect
to electrical power supply until appliance is permanently
grounded. Connect the ground wire before turning on
the power.

30" ELECTRIC DROP-IN RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
(If your appliance is equipped with a
white neutral conductor.)
This appliance is manufactured with a white neutral
power supply and a frame connected copper wire.
The frame is grounded by connection of grounding
lead to neutral lead at the termination of the
conduit, if used in USA, in a new branch circuit
installation (1996 NEC), mobile home, recreational
vehicles, where local code do not permit grounding
trough the neutral (white) wire or in Canada,
disconnect the white and green lead from each
other and use ground lead to ground unit in
accordance with local codes, connect neutral lead
to branch circuit-neutral conductor in usual manner
see Figure 4. If your appliance is to be connected
to a 3 wire grounded junction box (US only),
where local code permit connecting the appliancegrounding conductor to the neutral (white) see
Figure 3.
NOTE TO ELECTRICIAN: The armored cable leads
supplied with the appliance are UL-recognized for
connection to larger gauge household wiring. The
insulation of the leads is rated at temperatures much
higher than temperature rating of household wiring. The
current carrying capacity of the conductor is governed by
the temperature rating of the insulation around the wire,
rather than the wire gauge alone.
If oven is used in a new branch circuit installation
(1996 NEC), mobile home, recreational vehicle,
or where local codes DO NOT permit grounding
through the neutral (white) wire, the appliance
frame MUST NOT be connected to the neutral wire
of the 4-wire electrical system. (see figure 2):
1. Disconnect the power supply.
2. Separate the green (or bare copper) and white
appliance cable wires.
3. In the junction box:
connect appliance and power supply cable wires as
shown in Figure 2.
