IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

If the information in this manual is not

followed exactly, a fire or electrical shock may result causing property damage, personal injury or death.

For electrical supply connection:

• 1/4" & 3/8" Socket driver or Nutdriver

Additional Materials You Will Need

• Power Supply Cord or

ALL RANGES

CAN TIP. INJURY TO PERSONS COULD RESULT. INSTALL

ANTI-TIP

DEVICE PACKED WITH RANGE. SEE 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 compartments before connecting the gas and electrical supply to the range.

3. Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

4. Be sure to leave these instructions with the consumer.

Important Note to the Consumer

Keep these instructions with your owner's guide for future reference.

• As when using any appliance generating heat, there are certain safety precautions you should follow. You will find them in the Owner's Guide, read it carefully.

• Be sure your range is installed and grounded properly by a qualified installer or service technician.

• Make sure the wall coverings around the range can withstand the heat generated by the range.

• To eliminate the need to reach over the surface burners, cabinet storage space above the burners should be

avoided.

Before Starting

Tools You Will Need

For leveling legs and Anti-Tip Bracket:

• Adjustable wrench or channel lock pliers ==_ :J _"

• 5/16" Nutdriver or Flat Head Screwdriver

• Copper Electrical Wiring & Metal Conduit (for hard wiring)

Normal Installation Steps

1. Anti-Tip Bracket Installation Instructions

Important Safety Warning

To reduce the risk of tipping of the range, the range must

be secured to the floor by properly installed anti-tip bracket and screws packed with the range. Failure to install the anti-tip bracket 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.

If range is ever moved to a different location, the anti-tip

brackets must also be moved and installed with the range.

Instructions are provided for installation in wood or cement fastened to either the floor or wall. When installed to the

wall, make sure that screws completely penetrate dry wall and are secured in wood or metal. When fastening to the

floor or wall, be sure that screws do not penetrate electrical wiring or plumbing.

Locate the Bracket Using the Template- (Bracket may

be located on either the left or right side of the range. Use the information below to locate the bracket if

template is not available). Mark the floor or wall where

left or right side of the range will be located. If rear of range is against the wall or no further than 1-1/4" from

wall when installed, you may use the wall or floor

mount method. If molding is installed and does not

allow the bracket to fit flush against the wall, remove

molding or mount bracket to the floor. For wall mount,

locate the bracket by placing the back edge of the template against the rear wall and the side edge of template on the mark made referencing the side of the

range. Place bracket on top of template and mark

location of the screw holes in wall. If rear of range is further than 1-1/4" from the wall when installed, attach

bracket to the floor. For floor mount, locate the

bracket by placing back edge of the template where the rear of the range will be located. Markthe location of the screw holes, shown in template.

• Electric Drill & 1/8" Diameter Drill Bit (Masonry Drill Bit if installing in concrete)

Drill Pilot Holes and Fasten Bracket - Drill a 1/8" pilot hole where screws are to be located. If bracket is to be

mounted to the wall, drill pilot hole at an approximate 20 ° downward angle. If bracket is to be mounted to masonry or ceramic floors, drill a 5/32" pilot hole 1-3/ 4" deep. The screws provided may be used in wood or

concrete material. Use a 5/16" nut-driver or flat head screwdriver to secure the bracket in place.

the (4) leveling legs with a wrench. Note: A minimum clearance of 1/8" is required between the bottom of the range and the leveling leg to allow room for the bracket. Use a spirit level to check your adjustments. Slide range back into position. Visually checkthat rear leveling leg is inserted into and fully secured by the Anti-Tip Bracket by removing lower panel or storage

drawer. For models with a warmer drawer or broiler compartment, grasp the top rear edge of the range and

carefully attempt to tilt it forward.

2. Serial Plate Information

3. Electrical Connection Requirements

This appliance must be properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician in accordance with the National

Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70--latest edition--and local

electrical code requirements.

This appliance may be connected by means of permanent "Hard Wiring" or "Power Supply Cord Kit."

When hard wiring, do not leave excess wire in range compartment. Excess wire in the range compartment may

not allow the access cover to be replaced properly, and

could create a potential electrical hazard if wires become

pinched. Connect only as instructed under "WIRING INSTRUCTIONS" in section 6. When using flexible conduit or range cable use flex connector or range cable strain relief.

NOTE: Only use copper wire in connection to terminal

block.

3A. Models with Factory Connected Power

Supply Cord

NOTE: Some models may be equipped with a factory connected three (3) conductor power supply cord.

Mobile home installation or areas where local codes do not permit grounding through neutral, a four (4) conductor

power supplycord kit rated at 125/250 volts minimum, and marked for use with ranges shall be used. See Range Connection Opening Size Chart for cord kit ampere rating

information. Terminals on end of wires must be either closed loop or open-end spade lugs with upturned ends.

3B. Models Requiring Power Supply Cord Kit

RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRICAL SHOCK MAY OCCUR IF AN INCORRECT SIZE RANGE CORD KIT IS USED, THE

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS ARE NOT FOLLOWED OR STRAIN RELIEF BRACKET IS DISCARDED.

This appliance may be connected by means of a power supply cord. Only a power supply cord kit rated at 125/250 volts minimum, and marked for use with ranges shall be used. See chart on page 3 for cord kit ampere rating information. Cord must have either three (3) or four (4)

conductors. Terminals on end of wires must be either closed loop or open-end spade lugs with upturned ends.

Cord must have strain relief clamp.

See section 5Afor 3-wire or section 5B for 4-wire connection.

4. Electrical Connection to Range

The rear access cover must be removed. To remove, loosen center screw (one screw) and remove access cover. The

terminal block will then be accessible.
