Mobile home installation
The installation of this range must conform with the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standard, 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, ANSI A225.1/NFPA 501A*, or with local codes.
When this range is installed in a mobile home, it must be secured to the floor 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 or cable must be used in a mobile home installation. The appliance wiring will need to be revised. See “Four-wire electrical connection,” Page 4.

Electrical requirements
Copies of the standards listed may be obtained from:
*National Fire Protection Association
Batterymarch Park Quincy, Massachusetts, 02269
A four-wire or three-wire, single­phase, 120/240-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only, electrical supply (or three-wire or four­wire 120/208-volt if specified on the model/serial rating plate) is required on a separate, 40 amp circuit, fused on both sides of the line.
A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended.
The range can be connected directly to the fused disconnect (or circuit breaker box) through flexible armored conduit. See “Direct wire method: Copper wire” or “Direct wire method: Aluminum wire” sections.
Allow two to three feet of slack in the line so that it can be moved if servicing is ever necessary.
A U.L.-listed conduit connector must be provided at each end of the power supply cable (at the range and at the junction box).
Wire sizes and connections must conform with the rating of the range (40 amps).
The wiring diagram is located on the back of the range or on the inside of the storage drawer in a clear plastic bag.
If connecting to a four-wire system:
This range is manufactured with the ground connected to the cabinet. The ground must be revised so the green grounding wire of the four-wire power supply cord is connected to the cabinet. See “Four-wire electrical connection,” section, Page 6.
When a four-wire receptacle of NEMA Type 14-50R is used (see Figure 1), a matching U.L.-listed, four-wire, 250-volt, 40 amp, range power supply cord (pigtail) must be used. This cord contains four copper conductors with ring terminals at the appliance end, terminating in a NEMA Type 14-50P plug on the supply end. The fourth (grounding) conductor must be identified by a green or green/yellow cover and the neutral conductor by a white cover. Cord should be Type SRD or SRDT with a U.L.-listed strain relief and be at least four feet long.
The minimum conductor sizes for the copper four-wire power cord are:
40 amp circuit 2 No.-8 conductors 1 No.-10 white neutral 1 No.-8 green grounding
If connecting to a three-wire system:
Local codes may permit the use of a U.L.-listed, 250-volt, 40 amp range power supply cord (pigtail). This cord contains three, No.-10 copper wires and matches a three-wire receptacle of NEMA Type 10-50R, shown in Figure 2. Connectors on the appliance end must be provided at the point the power supply cord enters the appliance.
If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is recommended that a qualified electrician determine that the ground path and wire gauge are in accordance with local codes.
This range must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent wiring system.
Check with a qualified electrician if you are not sure range is properly grounded.
Do Not ground to a gas pipe. Do Not have a fuse in the neutral or
ground circuit.
Recommended ground method
It is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to contact a qualified electrician to assure that the electrical installation is adequate and is in conformance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 — latest edition* and all local codes and ordinances.
Power supply cord is not supplied, but is available through your local electrical supply house.
Range must be connected to the proper electrical voltage and frequency as specified on the model/serial rating plate. (The model/serial rating plate is located on the oven frame behind the storage drawer panel.)

The cooktop sides of the slide-in range fit over the cutout edge of your countertop.
If you have a square finish (flat) countertop and the opening width is 30" (76.2 cm), no countertop preparation is required.
Formed front-edged countertops: Must have molded edge shaved flat 1/2" (1.3 cm) from each front corner of opening.
Tile countertops may need trim cut back 1/2" (1.3 cm) from each front corner and/or rounded edge flattened.
If countertop opening width is greater than 30" (76.2 cm), adjust the 1/2" (1.3 cm) dimension.
Countertop must be level. Place level on countertop, first side to side; then front to back. If countertop is not level, range will not be level. Oven must be level for satisfactory baking conditions.
Formed or tiled countertop trimmed 1/2" (1.3 cm) back at front corners of countertop opening.

Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install range.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
WARNING
1.
Put on safety glasses and gloves. Remove shipping materials, tape and protective film from range. Keep cardboard bottom and shipping base under range. Remove oven racks and parts package from inside oven.
2.
Ta ke four cardboard corners from the carton. Stack one cardboard corner on top of another. Repeat with other two corners. Place them lengthwise on the floor behind the range — to support the range when it is laid on its back. Firmly grasp the range and gently lay it on its back on the cardboard corners.
3.
Pull cardboard shipping base firmly to remove.
4.
Use an adjustable wrench to loosen the leveling legs four complete turns.
5.
Place cardboard or hardboard in front of range. Stand range back up onto cardboard or hardboard.
Electrical connection
8.
Depending on your electrical supply, make the four-wire or three-wire connection to the range following the “Power supply cord method” or “Direct wire method” instructions for copper wire or aluminum wire depending on the connection needed.

7.
Remove the terminal block cover
located on the back of range.
Contact a qualified floor covering installer for the best procedure for drilling mounting holes through your type floor covering.
6.
Use the anti-tip bracket template to
install the anti-tip bracket. Anti-tip bracket must be anchored
securely to the sub-floor. Depending on the thickness of your
flooring, longer screws may be necessary to anchor the bracket to the sub-floor. Longer screws are available from your local hardware store.
Check that range is on cardboard shipping base to protect floor covering.
Tip Over Hazard
A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.
Connect anti-tip bracket to rear range foot.
Reconnect the anti-tip bracket, if the range is moved.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious burns to children and adults.

WARNING - Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the power supply cord plug. If it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
This range is manufactured with the neutral terminal connected to the cabinet. Use a three-wire, U.L.-listed, 40 amp power supply cord (pigtail); or if local codes Do Not permit ground through the neutral, use a four-wire power supply cord rated at 250 volts, 40 amps and investigated for use with ranges. (See “Four-wire electrical connection.”)
WARNING
