• Note to Consumer – Keep these instructions with
your Use and Care Guide for future reference.

• ATTENTION INSTALLER – All ovens must be hard
wired (direct wired) into an approved junction box.
A “plug and receptacle” is not permitted on these
products.

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, resulting in serious personal injury or death.
Never allow anyone to climb, sit, lean, stand or
hang on the oven door.

• The wall coverings, countertop and cabinets around
the oven should be able to withstand
the heat (up to 200°F) generated by the oven.

LOCATION

Cabinet space must be provided to enclose the
recessed part of your built-in oven. SINGLE OVEN
INSTALLATION — See Figure 1 for all necessary
dimensions. DOUBLE OVEN INSTALLATION — See
Figure 2 for all necessary dimensions. It is best to
make a template to insure accurate cutting. Place the
bottom of the template on a level base line, above the
floor. See dimension E in Figure 1 (Single Oven) or
Figure 2 (Double Oven).
It is important that the oven be installed at or above
the minimum height specified. The unit has been
tested and approved, in accordance with safety
standards, at this height.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

WARNING

supply line must be shut off while connections
are being made. Failure to do so could result in
serious injury or death.

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 front frame.)
We recommend you have the electrical wiring and
hookup of your oven done 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
of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA NO.
70-Latest Edition 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 4 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 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.
