Electrical Shock Hazard
It is the customer’s responsibility:
l
To contact a qualified electrical installer.
l
To assure that the electrical installation
is adequate and in conformance with
National Electrical Code, ANSIINFPA
70 - latest edition****, and all local
codes and ordinances.
Failure to do so could result in electrical
shock or other personal injury.
Personal Injury Hazard
To eliminate the risk of burns or fire,
avoid installing cabinet storage above the
cooking surface. If cabinets are already
installed, reduce the hazard of reaching
over a heated cooking surface by
installing a range hood.
The range hood should extend a minimum
of 5 inches out from the bottom front of
the cabinets.
Reaching over a heated cooking surface
could result in a serious burn.
Mobile home installation
The installation of this range must conform to
the Manufactured Home Construction and
Safety Standards, Title 24 CFR, Part 3280
(formerly the Federal Standard for Mobile Home
Construction and Safety, Title 24, HUD Part
280); or when such standard is not applicable,
the Standard for Manufactured Home
Installations 1982 (Manufactured Home Sites,
Communities and Setups), ANSI
or with local codes.
When this range is installed in a mobile home, it
must be secured to the cabinet (See Step 8.)
during transit. Any method of securing the range
is adequate as long as it conforms to the
standards listed above.
Four-wire power supply cord must be used in a
mobile home installation. The appliance wiring
will need to be revised. See “Electrical
requirements,” Figure 3, Panel B.
