does not rest on the floor.
If countertop is less than 1 1/2" thick, reinforcing braces
must be installed under the countertop, on each side.

,'Be sure the oven is securely installed to a cabinet that
is firmly attached to the house structure. Weight on the
oven door could potentially cause the range to tip and
result in injury. Never allow anyone to climb, sit, stand,
or hang on the oven door.
,,A 30" minimum clearance is required between the top
of the cooking surface and the bottom of an
unprotected wood or metal cabinet.
,,Put the range near a work surface for convenience.
oThe cooktop should be easy to reach and lighted with
natural light during the day.
,,To reduce the risk of burns or fire by reaching over
heated surface units, cabinet storage space located
above the surface units should be avoided. If cabinet
storage space is to be provided, the risk can be
reduced by installing a range hood that projects
horizontally a minimum of 5" beyond the bottom of the
cabinets.
oSee Figure 1 for all rough-in and spacing dimensions.
These dimensions must be met for safe use of your
range.
oLocate a wiring junction box at the rear of the cutout.
The dimension from the top of the wiring junction box to
the countertop must be a minimum of 28 1/2". The box
must not extend more than 3" off the plane of the wall.
See Fig. 1_ The junction box must be located where it
will allow considerable slack in the range conduit, so
that the range can be pulled for servicing if necessary.
,, Make sure the wall coverings, countertops and
cabinets around the range can withstand temperatures
of up to 200°F generated by the oven, range or
cooktop.

WHICH iS CUT OUT TO THE WALL
If you have an existing 27" wide cutout that goes all the
way to the wall, you may want to buy a backsplash kit for
your range. Order Kit JX27RWH (White), Kit JX27RBK
(Black) or Kit JX27RAD (Almond). This kit will fil! in the
space between the back of the range and the wall. See
Figures 2, 3 and 4.

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 noted on rating plate.
(Rating plate is located on oven front frame and is visible
when oven door is opened.)
We recommend you have the electrical wiring and
hookup of yOUr range done 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 range 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-Latest
Edition.You can get a copy by writing:
National Fire Protection Association
Battery March Park
Quincy, MA 02269
Effective January 1, 1996, the National Electrical Code
requires that new, but not existing, construction utilize a 4
conductor connection to an electric range. When
installing an electric range in a new construction, follow
the instructions in NEW CONSTRUCTION AND FOUR-
WIRE CORD CONNECTION KIT.
You must use a three-wire, single phase A.C. 208Y/120
Volt or 120/240 Volt, 60 Hertz electrical system. If you
connect to aluminum wiring, properly installed
connections approved for use with aluminum wiring must
be used.

With oven in front of cabinet opening, connect flexible
conduit to the junction box in such a manner that it wilt
hang down in a natural loop against the left side of the
back wall when the oven is installed. Do not shorten
this flexible conduit. A flexible conduit connector
must be securely attached to the junction box and the
flexible conduit must be securely attached to the
connector. If the flexible conduit will not fit within the
connector, do not install the oven until a connector of
the proper size is obtained.

1= Cut the neutral (white) lead from the crimp. Re-slrip
the neutral (white) lead to expose the proper length of
conductor.
2o Attach the appliance grounding lead (green or bare
copper) to the branch circuit grounding conductor
(green or bare) in accordance with local codes. If the
branch circuit grounding conductor is aluminum, see
"WARNIING" note.
3. Connect the range neutral (white) lead to the branch
circuit neutral (white or gray) in accordance with local
codes. If the branch circuit neutral conductor is
aluminum see "WARNIING"note.
4. Connect the range red lead to the branch circuit red
lead and the range black lead to the branch circuit
black lead in accordance with local codes. If the
residence red and black leads are aluminum
conductors, see '%VARNING" note.
