INSTRUCTIONS

Important Notes to the Installer

• Read all instructions contained in these installation
instructions before installing range.

• Remove all packing materials from the oven
compartments before connecting the electrical
supply to the range.

• Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

•

Be sure to leave these instructions with the consumer.

Important Note to the Consumer

Keep these instructions with your owner’s manual for
future reference.

• As when using any appliance generating heat, there
are certain safety precautions you should follow.

• Be sure your range is installed 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 need to reach over the surface
elements, cabinet storage space above the elements
should be avoided.

CLEARANCES AND DIMENSIONS (Figure 1)

To install range refer to the following Figure 1.

For installation in CANADA, a Free-standing range is not to be installed closer than 12 mm from any
adjacent surface.

CAUTION

comply with the maximum allowable wood cabinet
temperatures of 194°F. Make sure the wall
covering, countertop and cabinets around the range
can withstand the heat (up to 194°F) generated by the
range. If not discoloration, delamination or melting
may occur.

This range has been designed to

or fire by reaching over heated surface units,
cabinet storage space located above the surface
units should be avoided. If cabinet storage is to be
provided, the risk can be reduced by installing a
range hood that projects horizontally a minimum of
5 inches beyond the bottom of the cabinets.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
REQUIREMENTS

This appliance must be installed and grounded on a
branch circuit by a qualified technician in accordance
with the National Electrical code ANSI/NFPA NO. 70 ­latest edition.

All wiring should conform to Local and NEC. This
range requires a single-phase, 3 wire, A.C 120/208V or
120/240V 60Hz electrical system. Use only a 3-conductor
or a 4-conductor UL-listed range cord with closed­loop terminals, open-end spade lugs with upturned
ends or similar terminations. Cord must have the
strain relief properly installed.

A range cord rated at 40 amps with 120/240 minimum
volt range is required. If a 50 amp range cord is used,
it should be marked for use with 13⁄8
connection openings.

This appliance may be connected by means of conduit
or power cord. If conduit is being used, go to page 6

3 wire conduit connections or page 7 for 4 wire
conduit connections.

Conduit connection plate is used for the installation of
power cord or conduit. For power cord, install it with
conduit connection plate as manufacturer supplied.
For conduit cord, remove the conduit connection plate
located below the rear of the drawer body and use the
conduit hole (11/8”) instead of power cord hole (13/8”).
(Refer to Figure 8.)

WARNING

New branch-circuit installations (1996 NEC), mobile
homes, recreational vehicles, and installations
where local codes do not allow grounding through
neutral require a 4-conductor UL listed range cord
or 4 wire conduit connection.

3-wire connection with a power supply cord

WARNING

The middle (neutral or ground) wire of the power cord or
3-wire conduit has to be connected to the middle post of
the main terminal block. The remaining two wires of the
power cord or conduit have to be connected to the
outside posts of the main terminal connection block.

Install the power cord as follows:

For power cord installations, Hook the strain relief
over the power cord hole (13/8”) located below the rear
of drawer body. Insert the power cord through the
strain relief and tighten it. (Refer to Figure 5.)

You must install the power cord with a strain relief.

1. Remove the 3 nuts from the terminal block and
retain them. (Refer to Figure 6.)

2. Attach the 3 wires (L1, Neutral, L2) to each terminal
block bolt. Make sure that the center wire (neutral)
is connected to the center position of the terminal
block.

3. Tighten the 3 nuts securely into the terminal block.

Do not remove the ground strap connection.

4. Go to page 8.

WARNING

Only a 4-conductor power-supply cord kit rated
120/240 volts, 50 amperes and marked for use with
ranges with closed-loop connectors, open-end spade
lugs with upturned ends shall be used. The middle
(neutral) wire of the power cord or 4-wire conduit has
to be connected to the middle post of the main terminal
block. Other two wires of the power cord or conduit
have to be connected to the outside posts of the main
terminal connection block. The 4th ground wire must
be connected to the frame of the range with the ground
screw.

Follow the instructions under “Install the power cord
as follows” on page 5 to correctly install the strain
relief.
