STEP 3 - Range Installation
A. For safety considerations as well as optimum
performance, adjust the range so it is level and to
desired height prior to installing in cabinet opening.
Levelness may be checked by placing a spirit level or a
large pan of water on the cooktop or oven rack. Adjust the
range by tipping it forward or back and rotate the leveling
feet as required.
Note: A minimum clearance of 1/4" (6mm) is required
between the range and the leveling foot that will engage
the anti-tip bracket, (see figure 4).
Caution: Damage to the range may occur if range is
moved or lifted by grasping the main top, backguard or
door handle. All free-standing ranges with a glass top
have a non lift-up top. Coil tops are lift-up.
a.
Align the range to its designated location and prepare
to slide it back into position. Connect power cord and
plug into outlet following guidelines outlined in

CONNECTING THE RANGE
ELECTRIC SUPPLY
The range must be installed in accordance with Local and
National Electric Code (NEC) ANSt/NFPA No. 7O-latest
edition. See rating plate for total connected KW rating.
ELECTRIC SUPPLY (Canada)
The range must be installed in accordance with Local and
Canadian Electric Code CSA STD.C22.1 latest edition.
See rating plate for total connected KW rating.
OUTSIDE WIRING
Your local utility company will tell you whether the present
electric service to your home is adequate. It may be
necessary to increase the size of the wiring to the house
and service switch to take care of the electrical load
demanded by the range. The kilowatt rating for the range
is specified on the rating plate located on front of range.
HOUSE WIRING
Most local Building Regulations and Codes require that all
electrical wiring be done by licensed electricians. All
wiring should conform to Local and National Electrical
Codes. This range requires a single phase three wire
120/240 or a 120/208 volt, 60 Hz, AC circuit. Wiring codes
require a separate circuit be run from the main entrance
panel to the range and that it be equipped with separate
disconnect switch and fuses, either in the main entrance
panel or in a separate switch and fuse box. tn some
communities, a solid or flexible continuous armored
conduit must be used from main entrance panel to the
terminal box on the rear of the range. Others will permit
the termination of the range circuit at a polarized three or
four wire plug-in outlet placed at a convenient point near
the back of the range. The range is then connected to this
outlet through an approved range connector (pigtail)
fastened securely to the terminal block with proper strain
relief at the range and a three or four pronged plug at the
opposite end.
by local code. USE COPPER OR ALUMINUM
CONDUCTORS. Main terminal block is recognized for
Copper or Aluminum conductors. If a flexible power cord
is required, it is recommended a cord no longer than 4 ft.
be used. Make connections as explained below and with
reference to the appropriate illustration (see figures 6 and
7). After installation, insure tightness of all electrical
connections and replace all covers.
Remove terminal block access cover from range back.
(See figure 5).
