Important Notes to the Installer

1. Read all instructions contained in these installation
instructionsbefore installingrange.

2. Removeallpackingmaterialfromtheovencompartments
before connectingthe gas and electrical supplyto the

range.

3. Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

4. Be sure to leave these instructions with the consumer.

Important Note to the Consumer

Keep these instructions withyour owner's guide for future
reference.

As when using any appliance generating heat, there are

certain safety precautions you should follow. These are
listed in the Use & Care Manual. read it carefully.

Be sure your range isinstalled and grounded properly by
a qualified installer or service technician.

Make sure the wall coverings around the range can
withstand the heat generated by the range.

To eliminate the needto reach overthe surface elements,

cabinet storage space above the elements should be
avoided.

Before Starting

Tools You Will Need

For leveling legs and Anti-Tip Bracket:

Adjustablewrenchor channel lockpliers

5/16" Nutdriveror Flat Head Screwdriver

Electric Drill & 1/8" Diameter Drill Bit (Masonry Drill Bit if

installing in concrete)

For electrical supply connection:

1/4"& 3/8" Socket driver or Nutdriver

Additional Materials You Will Need

Normal Installation Steps

1, Anti-Tip Bracket Installation Instructions

Important Safety Warning
To reducethe riskoftippingof therange, therange mustbe

securedto thefloorbyproperlyinstalledanti-tipbracketand
screws packed with the range. Failure to installthe anti-tip

bracketwillallow the rangeto tip over ifexcessive weightis
placed on an open dooror if a child climbsupon it. Serious
injurymight resultfrom spilledhotliquidsor 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

fastenedtoeitherthefloororwall. When installedtothewall,
make surethatscrewscompletelypenetratedrywallandare

be sure that screws do not penetrate electrical wiring or
plumbing.

2. Electrical Connection Requirements
Thisappliance mustbe properlyinstalledandgroundedbya

qualifiedtechnicianinaccordancewiththe NationalElectrical
CodeANSI/NFPA No,70-latest edition--andlocalelectrical

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, andcould
create a potential electrical hazard ifwires become pinched.
Connect only asinstructed under'WIRING INSTRUCTIONS"

in section 4A or 4B. When using flexible conduit or range
cable use flex connector or range cable strain relief.

NOTE: Only use copperwireinconnectiontoterminal block.

C. Level and Position Range - Level range by adjusting

the (4) leveling legs with a wrench. Note: A minimum
clearance of 1/8"is required between the bottomofthe

2A.Models with Factory Connected Power

Supply Cord

NOTE: Some models may be equipped with a factory
connectedthree (3) conductorpowersupplycord.

Mobile home installations,new branch circuit installations
(1996NEC) or areas where local codes do not permit

grounding through neutral require a four (4) conductor power
supply cord kit rated at 125/250 volts minimum and marked

for use with ranges. See Range Connection Opening Size
Chart for cord kit ampere rating information. Terminals on
end of wires must be either closed loop or open-end spade

lugs with upturned ends.

2B.Models Requiring Power Supply Cord Kit

RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRICAL SHOCK MAY OCCUR IF

AN INCORRECT SIZE RANGE CORD KIT IS USED, THE

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS ARE NOT FOLLOWED
OR STRAIN RELIEF BRACKET IS DISCARDED.

This appliance may be connected by means of a power
supply cord. Only a power supply cord kit rated at 125/250

volts minimum, and marked for use with ranges shall be
used. See chart on page 3 for cord kit ampere rating
information. Cord must have either three (3) or four (4)

conductors. Terminals on end ofwires must be either closed
loop or open-end spade lugs with upturned ends. Cord must

have strain relief clamp.

2. Usingthe nuts removed in step 1, connect the cable or

copper power supply cord to the three (3) studs on the
terminal block, as local codes require. The neutral (white)

wire or center wire must be connected to the center
terminal.

3. Make sure all nuts are tightened securely.

4. Replace the rear access cover.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS:

A ground link is installed on this range which connects the
center terminal of the terminal block (neutral) to the chassis.
The ground link is not visible in the picture below but is
connected to the range by the center, lowest screw (shown in

picture below). The ground link must not be removed unless
national or local codes do not permit use of 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.

Connection

NOTE: Do not loosenthe second nut on line 1orline 2

which secure the factory installed range wiring to the

terminal block. Electrical failure or loss of electrical
connection may occur if nuts are loosened.
