/__.__/" Bracket

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/32°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"(6.4
mm) thick plywood between the range and carpeting.

Do not obstruct the flow of air at the oven
vent nor around the base or beneath the lower

front panel of the range. Avoid touching the vent
openings or nearby surfaces as they may become hot
while the oven is in operation. This range requires
fresh air for proper operation.

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(s) 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 need to reach over the surface

units, cabinet storage space above the units
should be avoided.

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.

DURING SELF-CLEAN:

Remove broiler pan, food and other utensils
before self-cleaning the oven. Wipe up excess

spillage. Follow the pre-cleaning instructions in the
Owner's Guide.

Model and Serial Number Location
The serial plate is located on the oven front frame behind

the large oven door.
When ordering parts for or making inquiries about your

range, always be sure to include the model and serial
numbers and a lot number or letter from the serial plate

on your range (Figure 1).

1. 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.

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.

To gain access to lower terminal

block bend lower back cover plate

along row of holes shown here

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 vehicle, 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.

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.

To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by
reaching over heated surface units, cabinet storage space
located above the range should be avoided. If cabinet
storage space is to be provided, the risk can be reduced
by installing a range hood that projects horizontally a
minimum of 5" (12.7 cm) beyond the bottom of the

cabinet.

on the floor where the back edge of the range will be.
Now install anti-tip brackets (see "Anti-Tip Brackets

Installation" page 8).

If range will not be installed against a cabinet, move
range into final position. Mark on the floor along both

sides of the range. If back of range will not be flush
with the wall (the location of the outlet may not allow

the range to be positioned against the wall), draw a
line on the floor where the back edge of the range will

be. Now install anti-tip brackets (see "Anti-Tip Brackets
Installation", page 8).

Range Installation
NOTE:

1. The back of the range may be installed directly
against the rear wall of the structure.

2. These ranges conform to U.L. requirements for "0"
spacing from the range to adjacent vertical walls
above the countertop level. However, to reduce
possible scorching of vertical walls and to minimize
potential fire hazards under abnormal surface unit
use conditions such as high heat or no pans, a
minimum of 2" (5.1 cm) spacing should be provided
on both sides of the cooktop.

3. If a wall is present on the left side of range, allow a
minimum of 2 3/4" (7 cm) to open the auxiliary door.
