IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
For Your Safety
• Be sure your oven is installed properly by
a qualified installer or service technician.
• Be sure the oven is securely installed in a
cabinet that is firmly attached to the house
structure. Weight on the oven door could
cause the oven to tip and result in injury.
Never allow anyone to climb, sit, stand or
hang on the oven door.
• Make sure the cabinets and wall
coverings around the oven can withstand
the temperatures (up to 200°F [93.3°C])
generated by the oven.
WARNING: The electrical
power to the oven supply line
must be shut off while line
connections are being made. Failure
to do so could result in serious injury
or death.
Electrical
Requirements
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. See the
rating plate located on the oven frame to determine
the rating of the product. Use the chart below to
determine the minimum recommended dedicated
circuit protection.

LR°atiantlg'°Pnlate __
We recommend you have the electrical wiring
and hookup of your oven connected by a qualified
electrician. After installation, have the electrician
show you where your main oven 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 oven must be wired and fused to meet the
requirements of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/
NFPA No. 70-Latest Edition. You can get a copy by
writing:
National Fire Protection Association
Batterymarch Park
Quincy, MA 02269
Effective January 1, 1996, the National
Electrical Code requires that new, but not existing,
construction 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,
follow the instructions in the section on NEW
CONSTRUCTION AND FOUR-CONDUCTOR
BRANCH CIRCUIT CONNECTION.
You must use a three-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.

Installation Instructions
Electrical Connections
ATTENTION INSTALLER
All electric wall ovens must be hard wired
(direct wired) into an approved junction
box. A plug and receptacle is NOT permitted
on these products.
DO NOT shorten 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.
NOTE TO ELECTRICIAN: The 3 power
leads supplied with this appliance are
UL recognized for connection to heavier
gauge household wiring. The insulation
of these 3 leads is rated at temperatures
much higher than the temperature rating
of 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.
Turn off the circuit breaker or remove
fuses to the oven branch circuit.
With the oven supported on a table or
platform in front of the cabinet opening,
connect the flexible conduit to the
electrical junction box as shown below.
Position the conduit in such a manner
that it will lie on top of the oven in
a natural loop when the oven is
installed. You will need to purchase
an appropriate strain relief clamp to
complete the connection of the conduit
to the junction box.

WARNING: Improper
connection of aluminum house
wiring to copper leads can
result in an electrical hazard or fire.
Use only connectors designed for
joining copper to aluminum and follow
the manufacturer's recommended
procedure closely.

c. As you slide the oven back, pull the string
so that the conduit will lie on top of the
oven in a natural loop.
d. When you are sure the conduit is out of the
way, slide the oven 3/4 way back into the
opening. Remove the string by pulling on
one end of the loop.
WARNING: Mounting

do so could result in the oven
falling out of the cabinet causing
serious injury.
