and cabinet cuts.

Avoid locating cabinet storage space above the surface units to eliminate the possibility of cabinets catching on fire, or personal burns from reaching for the cabinets over the heated units. If cabinet storage is to be provided, risk can be reduced by installing a range hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5" beyond the bottom of the cabinets.

Important Notes to the Installer

1. Read all instructions contained in these installation instructions before installing the appliance.

2. Remove all packing material before connecting the electrical supply to the appliance.

3. Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

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

4. 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. 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.

4.1 Models Requiring Power Supply Cord Kit

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 asshown on figure 4. 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. If a 50A circuit is used, a 50A power cord must be used.

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 [nay occur.

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 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.

U.S,STYLE

Figure 2 - 3-Wire Cord Kit

This appliance is manufactured with

the frame grounded by connection of a grounding

strap between the neutral power supply terminal and the frame. If used in USA, in a new branch circuit

installation (1996 NEC), mobile home or recreational vehicule, where local code do not permit grounding

through neutral (white) wire or in Canada; remove the

grounding strap from the frame and cut the other end, near the neutral terminal Connect the appliance in

usual manner.

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 screws from the access plate at the lower right end of the rear cover to expose range terminal connection

block.

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. Replace the terminal cover and replace the screws.

Silver Colored Terminal

Red Wire

Four Conductor Wire Connection to Range

Where local codes does NOT permit connection of the frame grounding conductor to the neutral wire of the copper power supply cord (see Figure 4):

1. Remove the screws from the access plate at the lower right end of the rear cover to expose range terminal connection

block.

2. Remove the grounding strap from the terminal block and from the appliance frame.

3. Using the nuts supplied with the literature package, connect the ground wire (green) of the copper power

supply cord to the frame of the appliance with the ground screw, using the hole in the frame 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 wires connected to the left terminal).

5. Replace the terminal cover and replace the screws.

Figure 4

Direct Electrical Connection to the Circuit

Breaker, Fuse Box or Junction Box

If the appliance is connected directly to the circuit breaker, fuse box or junction box, use flexible, armored or nonmetallic sheathed copper cable (with grounding wire). Supply a U.L. listed strain-relief at each end of the cable. At the appliance end, the cable goes through the Direct Connection Hole (see

Figure 4) on the Cord Mounting Plate. Wire sizes (copper wire only) and connections must conform to the rating of the appliance.

Where local codes permit connecting the appliance- grounding conductor to the neutral (white) wire (see

Figure 5):

1. Be sure that no power is supplied on the cable from residence.

2. Follow instructions on previous page for Four Conductor Wire Connection to Range (Fig. 4).

3. In the circuit breaker, fuse box or junction box (Fig. 5): a) Connect the green (or bare copper) wire, the white appliance cable wire, and the neutral (white) wire together.

b) Connect the 2 black wires together.

c) Connect the 2 red wires together.

Where local codes DO NOT permit connecting the appliance-grounding conductor to the neutral (white) wire, or if connecting to 4-wire electrical system (see

Figure 6):

1. Be sure that no power is supplied on the cable from residence.

2. Follow instructions on previous page for Four Conductor Wire Connection to Range (Fig. 4).

3. In the circuit breaker, fuse box or junction box (Fig. 6): a) Connect the white appliance cable wire to the neutral

(white) wire.

b) Connect the 2 black wires together. c) Connect the 2 red wires together.

d) Connect the green (or bare copper) grounding wire to

the grounding wire of the circuit breaker, fuse box or junction box.
