ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
We recommend that you have the electrical hookup of your range done by a qualified electrician. Have the elec­trician show you where your range disconnect is located.
Call your Electric Company and ask which codes apply in your area. If there are no codes, you must follow the NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE, ANSI/NFPA NO. 70­1987 You can get a copy by writing:
National Fire Protection Association
Batterymarch Park
Quincy, MA 02269
If you fail to wire your range in accordance with govern­ing codes, you may create a hazardous condition.
You must use a three-wire, single-phase AC 120/240 Volt or 208Y/120 Volt, 60 Hertz electrical system to operate
your range.
To Make Electrical Connection
1. Remove the junction block access cover (on range back).
JUNCTION BLOCK ON
RANGE BACK
See the table below for fuse/circuit breaker and wire sizes
Do not use aluminum wiring to connect your range to the household circuit.
THREE WIRE CORD
CONNECTION
1.
Remove the top nuts on the junction block studs Tighten the back nuts.
2. Install the three wire cord and the strain relief in the
3. hole in the strain relief bracket.
4.
Connect the red and black leads to the outer terminals
and the white lead to the center terminal.
5.
Push the cord upward (to relieve strain), while tighten-
ing the strain relief clamp.
If local codes require an ungrounded neutral:
a. Remove ground strap. b. Fasten the white wire to the center terminal. c. Use the screw from the ground strap to fasten a
#lo copper wire to the range. Secure the other end of the wire to a grounded cold water pipe or use another approved grounding method
2. Use: a three wire cord or
wires enclosed in a conduit or
an approved four-wire flexible cord set
and matching receptacle
(required in mobile home installations)
You must use a clamp or strain relief to hold the cord or conduit.
FOUR WIRE CORD CONNECTION
Remove the top nuts on the junction block studs.
1. Tighten the back nuts.
2.
Remove the ground screw, then remove the ground
3. strap.
Install the four wire cord and strain relief in the hole in
4. the strain relief bracket.
Connect the red and black lead to the outside termi-
5.
nals and the white lead to the center terminal.
Attach the green lead below the junction block with
6. the ground screw that was removed earlier (step 3).
Push the strain relief upward (to relieve strain), while
7. tightening the strain relief clamp.

Cooktop Cooking

The sign near each cooktop control knob shows which element is turned on by that knob.

To operate cooktop controls:
1. Push to turn.
2. Set on or between marks for desired heat,
The indicator light will glow when any cooktop element is on.
Never line the bowls below cooktop elements with aluminum foil. Foil can block normal
heat flow, and damage the range. This IS especially true if foil blocks the oven vent tube under the right rear cooktop element.

For best cooking results and energy efficient operation, you should use pans that:
A. Have flat bottoms and straight sides. B. Have light handles that do not tilt pans. C. Are about the same size as the element.
You can order a heavy duty cooktop element, made especially for home canning use and porcelain bowls with chrome trim rings. Refer to your repair parts list for part numbers.

INTEGRAL VENTING

When used with vent hood model 0773-800 or 0783-800 your range has integral venting capability. This means that the vent hood draws air through a grease filter directly above the cooktop instead of through the front of the vent hood.
lnegal venting does a better job of removing cooking vapors
from the cooktop area.
Clean the aluminum mesh grease filter above the cooktop often. It can be washed in the dishwasher. If the grease filter is not cleaned often enough, heavy grease build-up
may prevent proper cleaning, and the filter should be
replaced.
If the vent hood is not vented to the outside, there should
be a non-washable charcoal filter at the front of the hood which should be replaced every 6 months.
Refer to your range hood manual for replacement filter part numbers.

Oven Cooking

Always follow recipe carefully. Measure ingredients properly. Use proper pan placement.
Let the oven preheat thoroughly before cooking baked products. Allow IO-15 min­utes preheat time.
Avoid opening the door too often to check the food during baking as heat will be lost. This may result in poor baking results.
Cakes, cookies, muffins, and quick breads
should be baked in shiny pans - to reflect the heat - because they should have a light
golden crust. Yeast breads and pie crusts
should be baked in glass or dull (non-shiny
pans) -- to absorb the heat - because they
should have a brown, crisp crust.
Place pans on the oven racks with 1% - 2” of air space on all sides of each pan. Avoid overcrowding the oven.
Pans too close to each other, to oven walls
or to the oven bottom block the free move-
ment of air. Improper air movement causes [Aneven browning and cooking.
2 cake layers
4 cake layers
l
Most baking should be done on the second shelf position from the bottom. When baking several items, use two shelves placed on the second and fourth rack positions from the bottom of the oven. Stagger pans so that no pan is directly above another. Bake angel
food cakes on the first shelf position from the bottom of the oven.
Oven temperatures should be reduced 25
degrees below recommended temperatures
if you use dark pans or oven proof glass.
There may be some odor when the oven is first used. This is caused by the heating of
new parts and insulation.
Do not cover the oven bottom or an entire oven rack with foil. The foil can block nor­mal heat flow, cause cooking failures, and damage the oven interior.
