DESIGN INFORMATION
SINGLEOVEN INSTALLATIONS
The single oven may be installed in a cabinet alone or above a warming drawer. The singleoven may also
be installed below a countertop or below specified cooktops. Seethe label on top of the oven for approved
models.
DOUBLEOVENINSTALLATIONS
Adouble oven may be installed in a cabinet alone or above a warming drawer. See the label on top of the
oven for approved models.
IMPORTANT:Alwaysrefertoindividualinstallationinstructionspackedwitheachproductfor specific
requirements.
121 PREPARE THE OPENING
NOTE: Ifthe cabinet does not have a solid bottom, two
braces or runners must be installed to support the weight
of the oven. For single ovens, the runners and braces
must support 220 Ibs (99 kg).For double ovens, the
runners and braces must support 400 Ibs. (181 kg).
NOTE: If marks, blemishes or the cutout opening are
visible above the installed oven, it may be necessary to
add wood shims under the runners and front trim until
the marks or opening are covered.
NOTE: If the cabinet does not have a front frame and
the sides are less than sA"(1.9 cm) thick, shim both sides
equally to establish the cutout width.

[_ DOOR REMOVAL (RECOMMENDED)
NOTE: Door removal is not a requirement for installation of the product but is an added convenience.
To remove the door:
A. Open the oven door as far as it will go.
B. Remove hinge bracket from front frame and set aside. The hinge bracket must
be replaced for proper door functionality when door is reinstalled.
C. Push both hinge locks down toward the door frame to the unlocked position.
This may require a flat-blade screwdriver. DO NOT LIFTTHE DOOR BYTHE
HANDLE!
D. Place hands on both sides of the door and close the oven door to the removal
position (approximately 1"-2" [2.5 cm-Si cm] from the closed position).
E. Lift the door up and out until the hinge arms clear the slots.
NOTE: The oven door is very heavy. Be sure
you have a firm grip before lifting the oven door off the hinges. Use caution
once the door is removed. Do not lay the door on its handle.
This could cause dents or scratches.

A WAR NING:improper connection of aluminum house wiring to copper leads can result
in an electrical hazard or fire. Useonly connectors designed forjoining copper to aluminum and follow the
manufacturer's recommended procedure closely.
We recommend you have the electrical wiring and hookup of your appliance connected by a qualified
electrician. After installation, have the electrician show you how to disconnect power from the appliance.
You must use a single-phase, !20/208 VACor !20/240 VAC,60 Hertz electrical system. Ifyou connect to
aluminum wiring, properly installed connectors approved for use with aluminum wiring must be used.
Effective January !, 1996, the National Electrical Code requires that new construction (not existing) utilize
a four-conductor connection to an electric oven. When installing an electric oven in new construction,
a mobile home, recreational vehicle or an area where local codes prohibit grounding through the
neutral conductor, refer to the section on four-conductor branch circuit connections.
Check with your local utilities for electrical codes which apply in your area. Failure to wire your oven
according to governing codes could result in a hazardous condition. If there are no local codes, your
oven must be wired and fused to meet the National Electrical Code, NFPA No. 70 - latest edition,
available from the National Fire Protection Association.

DO NOTshorten the flexible conduit. The conduit strain relief clamp must be securely attached to the
junction box and the flexible conduit must be securely attached to the clamp. If the flexible conduit will not
fit within the clamp, do not install the oven until a clamp of the proper size is obtained.
The 3 power leads supplied with this appliance are suitable for connection to heavier gauge household
wiring. The insulation of these 3 leads is rated for temperatures much higher than the temperature rating of
the household wiring. The current-carrying capacity of the conductor is governed by the wire gauge and the
temperature rating of the insulation around the wire.
