of the unit. Remove pedestal rails from separate box and set aside (30” Double Wall Ovens Only).
DESIGN INFORMATION
SINGLE OVEN INSTALLATIONS
The single oven may be installed in a cabinet alone or above a warming drawer. The single oven
may also be installed side by side, below a countertop, or below specified cooktops. See the label
on top of the oven for approved models.
DOUBLE OVEN INSTALLATIONS
A double oven may be installed in a cabinet alone or above a warming drawer. See the label on
top of the oven for approved models.
IMPORTANT: Always refer to individual installation instructions packed with each product for
specific requirements.
WARNING
the service disconnecting means to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When the
service disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a
tag, to the service panel.
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 wall coverings, counters and cabinets around the oven can withstand the heat (up to
200°F [93.3°C]) generated by the oven.

PREPARE THE OPENING
NOTE: If the cabinet does not have a solid
bottom, two braces or runners must be
installed to support the weight of the oven.
For single ovens, the runners and braces
must support 220 lbs (99 kg). For double
ovens, the runners and braces must support
400 lbs. (181 kg).
NOTE: If marks, blemishes or the cutout
opening are visible above the installed oven,
it may be necessary to add wood shims
under the runners until the marks or opening
are covered.
NOTE: If the cabinet does not have a front
frame and the sides are less than ¾” (1.9 cm)
thick, shim both sides equally to establish the
cutout width.

NOTE: Install the oven only with specific models listed on the label located on top of the oven.
NOTE: Additional clearances between cutouts may be required. Check to be sure the oven
supports above the Warming Drawer location do not obstruct the required interior depth and height.
When installing a Warming Drawer below a single, double, or combination oven, a separate
120V, 60 HZ, properly grounded receptacle must be installed. Refer to installation instructions
packed with the Warming Drawer for specific installation requirements.

DETERMINING WHEN TO USE THE PEDESTAL
(30” DOUBLE OVENS ONLY)
WHEN TO USE THE PEDESTAL
When replacing an older GE Appliances 30” double wall oven with a new GE Appliances model.
Cutout height = 51-13/16” to 51-15/16”. This is our traditional cutout height.
WHEN NOT TO USE THE PEDESTAL
When replacing a 30” double wall oven from another manufacturer (ie. Whirlpool) with a new
GE Appliances 30” double wall oven. Cutout height = 50-1/4”. You will need to verify that the
existing cutout matches the 50-1/4” dimension.
If the new GE Appliances 30” double wall oven is being installed into new construction (ie. not a
replacement), then the recommended installation is to use the Pedestal.
3 B
PEDESTAL RAIL INSTALLATION
(30” DOUBLE OVENS ONLY)
A. Position the pedestal rails with the top cutout toward the front of the opening and the flanges
on the bottom, pointing toward the center. Locate each rail on the floor or cabinet runner,
slightly inward from the side of the cabinet. Make sure the front of each rail is not protruding
beyond the front of the cabinet opening.
B. Drill pilot holes and attach rails to runner or bottom of cabinet with provided hardware.

Description: The strike on the unit keeps the door closed during cooking
and protrudes from the inside of the oven structure. The strike angle can be
adjusted if the door is too difficult or easy to open or close.
Procedure: Use a standard pair of smooth jawed pliers to apply pressure
downward or upward on the strike, to customer’s preference.

WARNING
electrical hazard or fire. Use only connectors designed for joining copper to aluminum and follow the
manufacturer’s recommended procedure closely.
We recommend you have the electrical wiring and hookup of your 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. If you connect
to aluminum wiring, properly installed connectors approved for use with aluminum wiring must be used.
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 an area where local codes prohibit grounding
through the neutral conductor, refer to the section on four-conductor branch circuit connections.
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 National Electrical Code, NFPA No. 70 – latest edition,
available from the National Fire Protection Association.
This appliance must be properly grounded.
To prevent fire or shock, do not use an extension cord with this appliance.
To prevent shock, remove house fuse or open circuit breaker before beginning
