iMPORTANT SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS
This manual contains important safety symbols and instructions. Please pay attention to these
symbols and follow all instructions given.
• Besure your range isinstalled 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.
• The installation of appliances designed for
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 501A-
latest edition, or with local codes.
• 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.
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 excessspillage. Follow
the pre cleaning instructions inthe Use and Care Guide.
Tip Over Hazard
A child or adult can tip the
range and be killed.
Verify the rear bracket is
engaged with countertop or
the anti-tip device has been
installed to the walls of the
cabinet as per installation instructions.
Ensure the anti-tip bracket is re=engaged with
the countertop or to the cabinet side walls as
per the installation instructions when the range
is moved.
Do not operate the range without the anti-tip
device in place and engaged.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in
death or serious burns to children and adults.
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 isto be provided the risk can
be reduce by installing a range hood that project
To check if the anti=tip bracket is
installed properly, use both arms
and grasp the rear edge of range
back. Carefully attempt to tilt range
forward. When properly installed, the
range should not tilt forward.
Refer to the anti-tip bracket installation instructions
supplied with your range for proper installation.

D 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 isever
necessary.
3. A suitable strain relief must be provided to attach
the flexible armored cable to the junction box.
Electrical Shock Hazard
• Electrical ground is required on this appliance.
• Do not connect to the electrical supply until
appliance is permanently grounded.
• Disconnect power to the junction box before
making the electrical connection.
• This appliance must be connected to a
grounded, metallic, permanent wiring system,
or a grounding connector should be connected
to the grounding terminal or wire lead on the
appliance.
• Do not use a gas supply line for grounding the
appliance.
Failure to do any of the above could result in a
fire, personal injury or electrical shock.
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.
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.
(If your appliance is equipped with a
white neutral conductor.)

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.
Where local codes permit connecting the appliance-
grounding conductor to the neutral (white) wire
(US Only) (see figure 1):
1. Disconnect the power supply.
2. In the junction box:
connect appliance and power supply cable wires as
shown in Figure 1.

ires-
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.
