LOCATION
l
Put the range near a work surface for convenience.
l
The cooktop should be easy to reach and lighted with
natural light during the day.
l
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 space is to be provided, the risk can be re-
duced by installing a range hood that projects hori-
zontally a minimum of 5 in. beyond the bottom of the
cabinets.
IMPORTANT: Read the Rules for Safe Use in
yaur Use and Care Guide before using your range.

See Figures 1 and 2 for all rough-in and spacing
dimensions. These dimensions must be met for safe
use of your range. The location of the electrical outlet
may be changed as needed.

The range may be placed with 0 inches clearance
(flush) against the back wall and side walls of the

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
We recommend you have the electrical wiring and hookup
of your range done by a qualified electrician. After in-
stallation, have the electrician show you where your main
range disconnect is located.
Check with your local utilities for electrical codes which
apply in your area. Failure to wire your range according
to governing codes could result in a hazardous condition.
If there are no local codes, your range must be wired and
fused to meet the requirements of the National Electrical
Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1981. You can get a copy by
writing:
National Fire Protection Association
Batterymarch Park
Quincy, MA 02269
You must use a three-wire, single-phase A.C. 208Y120
Volt or 120/240 Volt, 60 Hertz electrical system. Do not
use aluminum wire to connect your range to your household outlet.
In the absence of local codes, we recommend that a
minimum wire size of No. 8 copper wire be used.
Protect the circuit with a 40 Amp. fuse or circuit breaker
for all Models for both 208Y120 Volt and 120/240 Volt
systems.
See the section on Electrical Connections, for detailed
instructions on hookup of your range.
REMOVE SHIPPING MATERIAL
Put the range near the installation location and
remove the accessory pack from the oven. Check
and secure any parts which may have come loose
during shipment.
Remove the cardboard shipping frame, under the
oven bake element, by lifting the front of the
element slightly and pulling the frame out.
Remove the shipping wire from each of the tour
cooktop elements.
LEVEL RANGE
Remove the oven racks and guides from the
accessory pack and install them in the oven. See
your Owners Manual for instructions. Equally
back out the four leg levelers two or three turns
each, then put the range where it will be installed. Put a spirit level, or a glass measuring
cup partially filled with water, on one of the
oven racks to check for levelness.
Use a wrench to adjust the leg levelers as shown
below. You may need to pull the range away
from the wall to reach the rear leg levelers.
