Installation Instructions

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

determine the minimum recommended dedicated
circuit protection.

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.
