• 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 [east 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 I/4" (6.4
ram) thick plywood between the range and carpeting.
• Do not obstruct the flow of combustion air at the
oven vent nor around the base or beneath the
tower front paneJ 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 burner combustion.
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 e[iminate the need to reach over the surface
units, cabinet storage space above the units
should be avoided.
Adjust surface burner flame size so it does not
extend beyond the edge of the cooking utensil.
Excessive flame is hazardous.
• 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.
• In the event of an electrical power outage, the surface
burners can be lit manually. To light a surface burner,
hold a lit match to the burner head and slowly turn the
Surface Control knob to Lite. Use caution when lighting
surface burners manually.
• Reset aH controls to the "off" position after using
a programmable timing operation.
Power Supply Cord Kit
Tile user is responsible for connecting tile 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), or by means of a
power supply cord kit. Use only a power supply cord kit
rated at 125/250 volts minimum, 40 amperes minimum
and marked for use with ranges. See chart (below) for
cord kit connection opening size and rating information.
Cord must have either 3 or 4 conductors.
For mobile homes, new installations, recreational
vehicles, or areas where local codes do not permit
grounding through neutral, a 4 conductor power supply
cord kit rated at 125/250 volts minimum, 40 amperes
and marked for use with ranges should be used (see
Figure 4).
Terminals on end of wires must either be closed loop or
open-end spade lugs with upturned ends. Cord must
