Proper installation is your responsibility. A qualified
technician must install this range. Make sure you
have everything necessary for correct installation. 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 oven frame behind the oven door.
Check location where range will be installed. The
range should be located for convenient use in
kitchen.
ALL OPENINGS IN THE WALL OR FLOOR WHERE
RANGE IS TO BE INSTALLED MUST BE SEALED.
Cabinet opening dimensions that are shown must
be used. Given dimensions are minimum
clearances.
Grounded electrical outlet is required. See
“Electrical requirements,” Page 2.
Electrical Shock Hazard
It is the customer’s responsibility to contact
a qualified electrical installer; and to make sure
that the electrical installation is adequate and in
conformance with National Electrical Code,
ANSUNFPA 70 - latest edition*, and all local
codes and ordinances.
Failure to do so could result in death or serious
injury.
Injury Hazard
To eliminate the risk of burns or fire, avoid
installing cabinet storage above the cooking
surface. If cabinets are already installed, reduce
the hazard of reaching over a heated cooking
surface by installing a range hood. The range
hood should extend a minimum of 5 inches out
from the bottom front of the cabinets.
Reaching over a heated cooking surface
could result in a serious burn or other injury.
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 28011 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 cable must be used in a
mobile home installation. The appliance wiring will
need to be revised. See four-wire electrical
connection, Page 3.
Copies of the standards listed may be obtained from:

Electrical Shock Hazard
Electrical ground is required on this appliance.
Do Not ground to a gas pipe.
Do Not change the power supply cord plug. If it
does not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
Do Not have a fuse in the neutral or grounding
:ircult. A fuse in the neutral or grounding circuit
:ould result in electrical shock.
Do Not use an extension cord with this appliance.
Check with a qualified electrician if you are in
doubt as to whether the appliance is properly
grounded.
Failure to follow these instructions could result in
jeath or serious injury.
If codes permit and a separate grounding wire is
used, it is recommended that a qualified electrician
determine that the grounding path is adequate.
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 found on
the oven frame behind the oven door.)
q
CONNECT WITH COPPER WIRE ONLY.
q
A three-wire or four-wire, single-phase, 120/240volt, 60-Hz, AC-only, electrical supply (or three-wire or
four-wire 120/208-volt if specified on the model/serial
rating plate) is required on a separate, 40-ampere
circuit, fused on both sides of the line.
q
A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is
recommended.
q
Local codes may permit the use of a U.L.-listed,
250~volt, 40-ampere range power supply cord (pigtail).
This cord contains three, No.-10 copper wires and
matches a three-wire receptacle of NEMA Type IO-50R,
shown in Figure 1. Connectors on the appliance end
must be provided at the point the power supply cord
enters the appliance.
q
The range can be connected directly to the fused
disconnect (or circuit breaker box) through flexible,
armored or non-metallic sheathed, copper cable (with
grounding wire). 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 appliance and at the junction box).
Wire sizes (COPPER WIRE ONLY) and connections must
conform with the rating of the appliance (40-amperes).
q
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 appliance is manufactured with the ground
connected to the cabinet. The ground must be
revised so the green grounding wire of the fourwire power cord is connected to the cabinet. See
“Four-wire electrical connection,” section, Page 3.
When a four-wire receptacle of NEMA Type 14-50R
is used (see Figure 21, a matching U.L.-listed, fourwire, 250~volt, 40-ampere, 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-ampere circuit
2, No.-8 conductors
1, No.-10 white neutral
1, No.-8 green grounding
