4. Electrical Connection Requiremenfs

This appliance must be properly installed and
grounded by a qualified technician in accordance
with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA

No. 70--latest edition--and local electrical code
requirements.

This appliance may be connected by means of
permanent "Hard Wiring" or "Power Supply Cord

Kit."
When hard wiring, do not leave excess wire in

range compartment. Excess wire in the range
compartment may not allow the access cover to
be replaced properly, and could create a potential
electrical hazard if wires become pinched. Connect
only as instructed under "WIRING INSTRUCTIONS"
in sections 6 and 7. When using flexible conduit
or range cable, use flex connector or range cable

strain relief.
NOTE: Only use copper wire in connection to

terminal block.

RELIEF BRACKET iS DISCARDED.

This appliance may be connected by means of a
power supply cord. Only a power supply cord kit
rated at 40 amperes, 125/250 volts minimum, and
marked for use with ranges shall be used. Cord
must have three (3) conductors. Terminals on end
of wires must be either closed loop or open-end

spade lugs with upturned ends. Cord must have
strain relief clamp.

NOTE: MOBILE HOME iNSTALLATiON OR
AREAS WHERE LOCAL CODES DO NOT PERMIT

GROUNDING THROUGH NEUTRAL, A FOUR (4)
CONDUCTOR POWER CORD MUST BE USED.

A 1-3/8" knock-out hole is provided at the bottom
of the range terminal box for connecting the power
supply cord kit to the range terminal block (see
Figures 2 and 3).

5. Permanent Hard Wiring (3 or 4 Wires)

insert the residence 3-wire power supply cable
through the 1-1/8" hole at the bottom of the range
terminal box (see Figure 2). For mobile home
application or where connections with a 3-wire
power supply cabte is not allowed, use a 4-wire
power supply cable (for connections, see Figure 3).
Use a U.L. approved strain relief clamp to secure

the cable to the terminal box.

6. Wirinc Instructions - 3-Wire Supply Cable

ELECTRICAL GROUND IS REQUIRED

ON THIS APPLIANCE.
This appliance is manufactured with the neutral

terminal connected to the frame. If local codes
permit connection of the frame grounding

conductor to the neutral wire of the copper power
supply cord:

(The 3-conductor cord or cable must be replaced
with a 4-conductor cord or cable where grounding
through the neutral conductor is prohibited in new

installations, mobile homes, recreational vehicles
or in other areas where local codes do not permit

neutral grounding.)

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

A ground link is installed on this range which
connects the center terminat of the terminal

block (neutral) to the chassis. The ground link
is connected to the range by the center ground

screw. The ground link must not be removed unless
national or local codes do not permit use of the
ground link.

NOTE: If the ground link is removed for any reason,
a separate ground wire must be connected to
the separate ground screw attached to the range
chassis, and to an adequate ground source.

If used in a mobile home or if local codes do not
permit grounding through the neutral, use ground

lead or ground screw to ground unit in accordance
with local codes. Connect neutral to branch circuit.

Wiring Instructions - 4-Wire Supply
Cable (Mobile Homes)

A. Remove the 2 screws and remove terminal

box cover.

B. Remove ground link from terminal box and

from appliance frame. Retain ground screw.

C. Connect ground wire (green) of copper

power supply cord to frame of appliance
with ground screw, using hole in frame

where ground strap was removed (see
Figure 3).

D. Connect neutral (white) wire of copper

power supply cord to center silver cotored
terminal of terminal box, and connect the
other wires to outer terminals using the 3

loose nuts on the terminal btock to terminal
box using 3/8" nut driver or socket.

E. Reinstall terminal box cover.

8. Anti-tip Bracket Installation Instructions

important Safety Warning

To reduce the risk of tipping of the range, the range

must be secured to the floor by the properly installed

anti-tip bracket and screws packed with the range.

Failure to install the anti-tip bracket will allow the
range to tip over if excessive weight is placed on an

open door or if child climbs upon it. Serious injury

might result from spilled hot liquids or from the range
itself.

if range is ever moved to a different location, the
anti-tip brackets must also be moved and installed
with the range.

Instructions are provided for installation in wood
or cement floor. When fastening to floor, be sure
that screws do not penetrate electrical wiring or

plumbing.

Tip Over Hazard

* A child or adult can tip the range

and be killed.

* Verify the anti-tip device has

been installed to floor or wall.

* Ensure the anti-tip device is re-engaged to floor

or wall when the range is moved.
Do not operate the range without the anti-tip

device in place and engaged.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in
death or serious burns to children and adults.

A. Lacate the Bracket Using the Template - Locate
the bracket position by placing the template on the
floor, against the back wall and on the right edge of
cabinet. Mark the location of the screw holes, shown
on template.

Figure |

B. Drlll Pilot Hales and Fasten Bracket - Drill a 1/8"
pilot hole where screws are to be located. If bracket
is to be mounted to the wall, drill pilot hole at an
approximate 20 ° downward angle. If bracket is to
be mounted to masonry or ceramic floors, drill a
3/16" pilot hole 1-3/4" deep. The screws provided
may be used in wood or concrete material. Use a
5/16" nut-driver or flat head screwdriver to secure

the bracket in place.
