RANGE SAFETY

Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages.

This is the safety alert symbol. This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others. All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word “DANGER” or “WARNING.”

These words mean:

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately

DANGER

WARNING

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

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.

Location Requirements

IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

■ It is the installer’s responsibility to comply with installation

clearances specified on the model/serial rating plate. The model/serial rating plate is located on the left side frame behind the storage drawer panel.

■ The range should be located for convenient use in the

kitchen.

■ To eliminate the risk of burns 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" (12.7 cm) beyond the bottom of the cabinets.

■ Cabinet opening dimensions that are shown must be used.

Given dimensions are minimum clearances.

■ The floor anti-tip bracket must be installed. To install the anti-

tip bracket shipped with the range, see “Install Anti-Tip Bracket” section.

■ Grounded electrical supply is required. See “Electrical

Requirements” section.

IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to your cabinets, check with your builder or cabinet supplier to make sure that the materials used will not discolor, delaminate or sustain other damage. This oven has been designed in accordance with the requirements of UL and CSA International and complies with the maximum allowable wood cabinet temperatures of 194° (90°C).

A. Anti-tip bracket B. Plastic anchors (2) C. #10 x 1¹⁄₂" screws (2)

■ Anti-tip bracket kit

Anti-tip bracket must be securely mounted to subfloor. Thickness of flooring may require longer screws to anchor bracket to subfloor. Longer screws are available from your local hardware store.

Parts needed

If using a power supply cord kit:

■ A UL listed power supply cord kit marked for use with ranges.

The cord should be rated at 250 volts minimum, 40 amps or 50 amps that is marked for use with nominal 1³⁄₈" (3.5 cm) diameter connection opening and must end in ring terminals or open-end spade terminals with upturned ends.

■ A UL listed strain relief.

Check local codes. Check existing electrical supply. See “Electrical Requirements” section.

It is recommended that all electrical connections be made by a licensed, qualified electrical installer.

Mobile Home - Additional Installation Requirements

The installation of this range must conform to 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). When such standard is not applicable, use the Standard for Manufactured Home Installations, ANSI A225.1/NFPA 501A or local codes.

Mobile home installations require:

■ 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 “Electrical Connection” section.

IMPORTANT: If installing a range hood or microwave hood combination above the range, follow the range hood or microwave hood combination installation instructions for dimensional clearances above the cooktop surface.

A freestanding range may be installed next to combustible walls with zero clearance.

Electrical Requirements - U.S.A. Only

If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is recommended that a qualified electrical installer determine that the ground path and wire gauge are in accordance with local codes.

Do not use an extension cord. Be sure that the electrical connection and wire size are adequate

and in conformance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/ NFPA 70-latest edition and all local codes and ordinances.

A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from: National Fire Protection Association One Batterymarch Park Quincy, MA 02269.

WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service technician 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.

Electrical Connection

To properly install your range, you must determine the type of electrical connection you will be using and follow the instructions provided for it here.

■ Range must be connected to the proper electrical voltage

and frequency as specified on the model/serial number rating plate. The model/serial number rating plate is located behind the control panel or on the oven frame behind the storage drawer panel. Refer to the figures in the “Product Dimensions” section of the “Location Requirements” section.

■ This range is manufactured with the neutral terminal

connected to the cabinet. Use a 3-wire, UL listed, 40- or 50-amp power supply cord (pigtail) (see following Range Rating chart). If local codes do not permit ground through the neutral, use a 4-wire power supply cord rated at 250 volts, 40 or 50 amps and investigated for use with ranges.

Range Rating* Specified Rating of

Power Supply Cord Kit and Circuit Protection

120/240 Volts 120/208 Volts Amps

If connecting to a 4-wire system:

This range is manufactured with the ground connected to the neutral by a link. The ground must be revised so the green ground wire of the 4-wire power supply cord is connected to the cabinet. See “Electrical Connection.”

Grounding through the neutral conductor is prohibited for new branch-circuit installations (1996 NEC); mobile homes; and recreational vehicles, or an area where local codes prohibit grounding through the neutral conductor.

When a 4-wire receptacle of NEMA Type 14-50R is used, a matching UL listed, 4-wire, 250-volt, 40- or 50-amp, range power supply cord (pigtail) must be used. This cord contains 4 copper conductors with ring terminals or open-end spade terminals with upturned ends, 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 UL listed strain relief and be at least 4 ft (1.22 m) long.

8.8 - 16.5 KW

16.6 - 22.5 KW

7.8 - 12.5 KW

12.6 - 18.5 KW

40 or 50** 50

*The NEC calculated load is less than the total connected load

listed on the model/serial rating plate.

**If connecting to a 50-amp circuit, use a 50-amp rated cord with

kit. For 50-amp rated cord kits, use kits that specify use with a nominal 1³⁄₈" (34.9 mm) diameter connection opening.

■ A circuit breaker is recommended.

■ The range can be connected directly to the circuit breaker

box (or fused disconnect) through flexible or nonmetallic sheathed, copper or aluminum cable. See the “Electrical Connection” section.

■ Allow 2 to 3 ft (61.0 cm to 91.4 cm) of slack in the line so that

the range can be moved if servicing is ever necessary.

■ A UL 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.

■ The wiring diagram is located on the back of the range or

inside the storage drawer in a clear plastic bag.

4-wire receptacle (14-50R)

The minimum conductor sized for the copper 4-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 3-wire system:

Local codes may permit the use of a UL listed, 3-wire, 250-volt, 40- or 50-amp range power supply cord (pigtail). This cord contains 3 copper conductors with ring terminals or open-end spade terminals with upturned ends, terminating in a NEMA Type 10-50P plug on the supply end. Connectors on the appliance end must be provided at the point the power supply cord enters the appliance. This uses a 3-wire receptacle of NEMA Type 10-50R.
