IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Iftheinformationinthismanualisnotfollowed exactly,afireorelectricalshockmayresultcausingproperty damage, personal injury or death.

Important Notes to the Installer:

Read all instructions contained in these installation instructions before installing range.

Remove all packing material from the oven compartments before connecting the gas & electrical supply to the range.

Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

Be sure to leave these instructions with the consumer.

Important Notes 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.

These are listed in the Use & Care 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 elements, cabinet storage space above the elements should be avoided.

Tip Over Hazard

• A child 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.

3.Anti-Tip Bracket Installation

Instructions

Important Safety Warning

To reduce the risk of tipping of the range, the range should 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.

A.LocatetheBracketUsingtheTemplate-(Bracketmaybe located on either the left or right side of the range. Use the information below to locate the bracket if template is not available).

4.Electrical Connection

Requirements

Avoid fire hazard or electrical shock. Failure tofollowthiswarningmaycasueseriousinjury,fire,ordeath.

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 wiring” or power supply cord kit.”

When installing permanent wiring, do not leave excess wire in range compartment. Excess wire in the range compartment may not allow the rear access cover to be replaced properly and could create a potential electrical hazard if wires become pinched. Connect only as instructed under “Permanent Wire Connections” in Step 5c. When using flexible conduit or range cable use flex connector or range cable strain relief

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 Fig. 10 for cord kit ampere rating information. Cord must have either three (3) or four (4) conductors (See Fig. 8). Terminals on end of wires must be either closed loop or open-end spade lugs with upturned ends. Cord must have strain relief properly installed. See Steps 5a. for 4-Wire or 4b. for 3-Wire connections.

5. Electrical Connection to the

Range

The Rear Access Cover must be removed (Fig 9). To remove, loosen center screw (one screw) and remove cover. The terminal block will then be accessible.

5A. POWER CORD CONNECTIONS

(4-Wire Connection Instructions - Refer to Fig.12)

Before wiring the range review the suggested power source location drawing in Fig. 3. If connecting to a 4-Wire electrical system (new branch-circuit or mobile home requires 4-Wire connection):

1.Follow the manufacturer’s installation instructions supplied with the strain relief and install (Also see Figs. 9, 10 & 11).

2.Insert the end connectors for Line 1, Line 2 and Neutral and tighten securely to the terminal block. IMPORTANT NOTE: DO NOT LOOSEN the factory installed nut connections which secure the range wiring to the terminal block. Electrical failure or loss of electrical connection may occur if these 3 nuts are loosened or removed.

3.You must disconnect the ground strap. Remove the factory installed ground screw & plate to release the copper ground strap from the frame of the appliance. Cut and discard the copper ground strap & plate.

KEEP the ground screw.

4.Connect the ground wire (Green) lead with the eyelet to the frame of the appliance with the ground screw using the same hole in the frame where the ground screw was originally installed (See Fig. 12).

5.Make sure all screws are tightened securely and replace the rear access cover (See Fig. 9).

5B. POWER CORD CONNECTIONS

(3-Wire Connection Instructions

For existing installations ONLY - Refer to Fig. 13).

1.Follow the manufacturer’s installation instructions supplied with the strain relief and install (Also see Figs. 9, 10 & 11).

2.Insert the end connectors for Line 1, Line 2 and Neutral and tighten securely to the terminal block (See Fig. 13).

IMPORTANT NOTE: DO NOT LOOSEN the factory installed nut connections which secure the range wiring to the terminal block. Electrical failure or loss of electrical connection may occur if these 3 nuts are loosened or removed.

3.Make sure all connections are tightened securely and replace the rear access cover (See Fig. 9).

NOTE: Internal white wire not present on all

models.
