Anti--tip device should engage and pravent
the range from tipping over.
IMPORTANTSAFETYNOtiCE
The Californb Safe Drinking Water and Toxic
Enforcement Act requires the Governor of
California to publish a list of substances known
to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm, and requires businesses to
warn customers of potential exposure to such
substances.
If you pull file rang_ out flom file wall %r
any reason, make snre the device is properly
eng_ged when you push the tange back ag:_inst
the wall. If it is not, there is a pos0ble risk of the
range tipping over and causing inju U if yon or
a child stand, sit or lean on an open door
Please refer to the Anti-Tip device information
in this manual. Failure to take this precaution
could resuh in tipping of the range and inju U.
The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives
off a very small amount of carbon monoxide during
the cleaning cycle. Exposure can be minimized by
venting with an open window or using a ventilation
fan or hood.

Wok Cooking
We recommendthat youuse onlya flat-bottomed
wok. Theyareavailable at your localretail store.
Do not rise woks that have supl)ort tings.
Use of these types of woes, with or without
the ring in place, can be dangerous.
Useonlyflat-bottomedwoks.
For best cooking results, pans should be
fiat on tile bottom. Match tile size of tile
saucel)an to tile size of the s/mfi_ce unit.
The pan should not extend over the edge
ot the s/mfi_ce trait inore than 1 inch.
Placing tile ring over tile suI_fhce unit will
cause a buildup of heat that will dalnage

Typeof Margarine Will Affect Baking Performanc!!

Most recipes for baking have been
developed using high fat products such
as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you
decrease the fat, the recipe may not
give the same results as with a higher
fat product.

Onsome models,the d/spley w/71show "PilE"

Federal standards require products labeled
"marga_-h_e" to contain at least 80% tilt by
weight, ix)\_qilt spreads, on the other hand,
contain less tilt and more water. The high
moisture content of these spreads affects
the texture and flavor of baked goods. For
best results with your old til\'ofite redpes,
rise margarine, butter or stick spreads
containing at least 70% vegetable oil.
Baking results will be better if baking pans
are centered in tile o_ ell as Ill[/ch as
possible. Pans should not touch each ()tiles"

Aluminum Foil
Never cover the oven bottom with

You can use ahmfinum fi)il to line the

you must mold the fifil tightly to the

_Muminum fi)il may also be used m catch

fifil on a lower shelf several inches below

Never entirely cover a shelf with aluminum
toil. This will disturb the heat circulation

Youmay find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. Use your new oven for a few weeks to
become more familiar with it. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust the thermostat yourself.
Donot use thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your oven. These
thermometers may vary 20-40°F.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
CAUTION: For personal safety,
do not use an extension cord with this
appliance. Remove house fuse or open circuit
breaker before beginning installation.
This appliance must be supplied with the
proper voltage and frequency, and connected
to an individual properly grounded branch
circuit, protected by a circuit breaker or fuse
having amperage as specified on the rating
plate. The rating plate is located behind the
storage drawer or warming drawer on the
oven frame,
Location of
model rating
plate
We recommend you have the electrical wiring
and hookup of your range connected by a
qualified electrician. After installation, have
the electrician show you where your main
range disconnect is located.
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 range must be wired
and fused to meet the requirements of the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70 i
Latest Edition. You can get a copy by writing:
National Fire Protection Association
Batterymarch Park
Quincy, MA 02269
ALL NEW CONSTRUCTIONS,
MOBILE HOMES AND
INSTALLATIONS WHERE
LOCAL CODES DO NOT
ALLOW GROUNDING
THROUGH NEUTRAL
Use only a 3-conductor or a 4-conductor
UL-listed range cord. These cords may be
provided with ring terminals on wire and
a strain relief device.
A range cord rated at 40 amps with 125/250
minimum volt range is required. A 50 amp
range cord is not recommended but if used, it
should be marked for use with nominal 13/8"
diameter connection openings. Care should
be taken to center the cable and strain relief
within the knockout hole to keep the edge
from damaging the cable.
* Because range terminals are not accessible
after range is in position, flexible service
conduit or cord must be used.
NOTE: If conduit is being used, go to Step 3D
and then to Step 6 or 7.
• On some models, a filter capacitor may be
connected between the black and white
leads on the junction block.
Effective January 1, 1996, the National
Electrical Code requires that new construction
(not existing) utilize a 4-conductor connection
to an electric range.
When installing an electric range in new
construction, follow Steps 3 and 5 for 4-wire
connection.
You must use a 3-wire, single-phase A.C.
208Y/120 Volt or 240/120 Volt, 60 hertz
electrical system. If you connect to aluminum
wiring, properly installed connectors
approved for use with aluminum wiring
must be used.
If the electrical service provided does not
meet the above specifications, have a
licensed electrician install an approved outlet.
