pushing into it. Raise leveling legs and the rear adjustable wheels at a higher position

than the cabinet height (see page 3), insert the appliance in the counter and then level.

Make sure the unit is supported by the leveling legs at the front and the

wheels at the back and NOT by the cooktop itself.

To avoid breakage: Do NOT handle or manipulate
the unit by the cooktop.

_Thecounter-top around the cut-out should be flat and leveled (see

hatched area on illustration 1)

_Before installing the unit,

measure the heights of
the two (2) cabinet sides

(H1-4), front and back (see
illustration 1) from the floor

to the top of the counter.

_Levelthe range using the four (4)leveling legs so

that the height from the floor to the underside
of the cooktop glass frame is greater than the
tallest cabinet measurement by at least 1/16" (see
illustration 2).

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 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 the
local electrical inspector's use and future reference.

Communities and Setups), ANSI Z225.1/NFPA 501A-
latest edition, or with local codes in United States and
with CAN/CSA-Z240 MH in Canada.

• 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 (32.2°C) 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"
(0.64 cm) thick plywood between the range and

IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTION

_Co]d temperatures can damage the

electronic control. When using the appliance for the first
time, or when the appliance has not been used for an

extended period of time, be certain the unit has been
in temperatures above 32% (0°C) for at least 3 hours
before turning on the power to the appliance.

• 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 in United States or with CSA
Standard C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code, Part I in

Canada.
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

Tip Over Hazard

• Achild or adult can tip the range
and be killed.

• Verify the anti-tip device has been
installed to floor or wall.

Ensure the anti-tip device is re-engaged to floor
or wall 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.

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.

_ 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

t_unattended.

Stepping, leaning or sitting on the
door or drawer 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 oven racks, broiler pan, food and other
utensils before self-cleaning the oven. Wipe up

excess spillage. Follow the precleaning instructions in
the Owner's Guide.

Factory Connected Power Supply

Cord (Canada only)

This range is equipped with a factory-connected power
cord (see Figure 1). Cord must be connected to a
grounded 120/240 volt or 120/208 volt range outlet. If
no outlet is available, have one installed by a qualified

electrician.

Canada Style

Figure 1

Power Supply Cord Kit (U.S.A.)

The user is responsible for connecting the power supply
cord to the connection block located behind the back

panel access cover.
This appliance may be connected by means of

permanent "hard wiring"; flexible armored or
nonmetallic shielded copper cable (when local code
allow it) or by means of a power supply cord kit.

NOTE: Electric Slide-in Range is shipped from factory
with 1 1/8" (2.9 cm) dia. hole as shown on figure 3. If a
larger hole is required, punch out the knockout.

Risk of fire or electrical shock exists

if an incorrect size range cord kit is used, the
Installation Instructions are not followed, or the

strain relief bracket is discarded,
For mobile homes, new installations or recreational

vehicles, use only a power supply kit designed for a
range at 125V/250V 50A recommended (minimum
40A). Cord must have either 3 (when local code permits
grounding through neutral) or 4 conductors. Terminal on
end of wires must be either closed loop or open spade
lug with upturned ends. Cord must have strain-relief
clamp.

Do not loosen the nuts which secure

the factory-installed range wiring to terminal block
while connecting range, Electrical failure or loss of
electrical connection may occur,

Electrical Shock Hazard

o Electrical ground is required on this appliance,

Do not connect to the electrical supply until

appliance is permanently grounded.

Disconnect power to the circuit breaker or fuse

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,

Failure to do any of the above could result in a
fire, personal injury or electrical shock,

Three Conductor Wire Connection to Range

If local codes permit connection of the frame grounding
conductor to the neutral wire of the copper power

supply cord (see Figure 3):

1. Remove the 3 screws at the lower end of the rear
wire cover, then bend the lower end of the rear

wire cover (accesscover) upward to expose range
terminal connection block (see Figure 2).

2. Using the nuts supplied in the literature package,
connect the neutral of the copper power supply cord

to the center silver-colored terminal of the terminal
block, and connect the other wires to the outer

terminals. Match wires and terminals by color (red
wires connected to the right terminal, black wires
connected to the left terminal) (see figure 3).

3. Lower the terminal cover and replace the 3 screws.

where the ground strap was removed (see Figure 4).

4. Connect the neutral of the copper power supply
cord to the center silver-colored terminal of the

terminal block, and connect the other wires to the
outer terminals. Match wires and terminals by color
(red wires connected to the right terminal, black
