The Standard Installation of this Drop-In Range is to hang

by the countertop on the side metal flanges under glass cooktop. This Range must not be installed on a base or sub structure 12"× 4" support).

If the construction of your cabinet cannot provide a

1/4" flat area at the back of the countertop opening, consider changing the countertop to accommodate this dimension. If the area is not flat, excess tension may

be applied to the glass cooktop, causing breakage and voiding the warranty.

Countertop thickness 1-1/4" min. is required to support the product. Braces must be installed between the

underside of the countertop and the cabinet if required to obtain 1-1/4" minimum thickness (each side).

Hake sure the wall coverings, counters and cabinets around the oven can withstand the heat (up to 200 ° F

(93.3° C)generated by the oven.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

WARNING Electric Shock Hazard

. This appliance must be properly grounded. o Do not use an extension cord.

Before installing range, switch power off at the service panel and lock the service disconnecting means to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When the disconnection means cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.

Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious injury or death.

A WARNING Fire Hazard

Improper connection of aluminum house wiring to copper leads can result in an electrical or fire hazard. If residence leads are aluminum, use only connectors designed for joining copper to aluminum and follow the manufacturer's recommended procedure closely. Failure to do so may result in serious injury or death.

We recommend you have the electrical wiring and hookup of the 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, 120/208 VAC or 120/240 VAC, 60 Hertz electrical system.

Effective January 1, 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 area where local codes prohibit grounding through the neutral conductor, refer

to the section on four-conductor branch circuit connections.

Checkwith your local utilities for electrical codes which apply in your area. Failure to wire your oven according to governing code could result in a hazardous condition. Ifthere are no local codes, your oven must be wired

and fused to meet the National Electrical Code,NFPANo. 70-latest edition, available from the National Fire Protection Association.

Rating plate is located on oven front frame and is visible when oven door is open.

This appliance must supplied be with the proper voltage and frequency, and connected to an individual, properly grounded, 40 amp (minimum) branch circuit protected by a circuit breaker or time-delay fuse.

DO NOT shorten the flexible conduit. The conduit strain relief clamp must be securely attached to the junction box and the flexible conduit must 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.

The3 power leads supplied with this appliance are suitable for connection to heavier gauge household wiring. The insulation of these B leads is rated for temperatures much higher than the temperature rating of the household wiring. The current-carrying capacity of the conductor isgoverned by the wire gauge and the temperature rating of the insulation around the wire.

Installation Instructions

MAKE ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

Place the unit on a platform or table even with the cutout opening. The platform must support 200 Ibs. (91 kg). Connect the flexible conduit to the electrical junction box as follows:

THREE-CONDUCTOR BRANCH CIRCUIT CONNECTION
