preparing to install the range
ABOUT THIS SECTION
READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS COMPLETELY AND CAREFULLY.
Important note to the installer
•Read all instructions contained in these installation instructions before installing the range.
•Remove all packing materials from the oven compartments before connecting the electrical supply to the range.
•Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
•Be sure to leave these instructions with the consumer.
Important note to the consumer
Keep these instructions for the local electrical inspector’s use.
•As when using any appliance generating heat, there are certain safety precautions you should follow.
•Be sure your range is installed and grounded properly by a qualified installer or
service technician.
•Make sure the wall coverings around the range can withstand the heat generated by the range.
•To eliminate the need to reach over the surface elements, avoid having cabinet storage space above the cooktop.
•The range should not be placed on a base.
FOR YOUR SAFETY
WARNING WARNING If the information in this manual is not followed exactly, a fire or electrical shock may result causing property damage, personal injury, or death.
WARNING WARNING Before beginning the installation, switch the power off at the service panel and lock the service disconnecting switch to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When the service disconnecting switch cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.
WARNING WARNING This appliance must be properly grounded.

CHECKING THE INSTALLATION SITE
Clearances and dimensions
To install the range, refer to the following figure.
CAUTION CAUTION This range has been designed to comply with the maximum allowable wood cabinet temperatures of 194 °F. Make sure the wall covering, countertops, and cabinets around the range can withstand the heat (up to 194 °F) generated by the range. If not, discoloration, delamination, or melting may occur.

IMPORTANT To eliminate the risk of burns or fire caused by reaching over heated surface units, avoid having cabinet storage space located above the surface units. If you have cabinet storage space over the heating elements, you can reduce the risk by installing a range hood that projects horizontally a minimum of 5 inches beyond the bottom of the cabinets.

TO AVOID BREAKAGE
CAUTION CAUTION Do NOT lift or handle the unit by the cooktop glass.

Fig. 1
1.The counter top around the cut-out should be flat and leveled (see hatched area on Fig. 1).
2.Before installing the unit, measure the heights of the two cabinet sides (C1~C4), front and back (See Fig. 1) from the floor to the top of the counter.
3.Level the range using the four leveling legs so that the height from the floor to the underside of the cooktop glass frame is greater than the tallest cabinet measurement by at least 1/16”.
4.Remove the Support Frames on the back left and back right of the glass cooktop (Refer to page 4).
5.Slide the unit into the cabinet (DO NOT PUSH THE UNIT HARD). Make sure the center of the unit aligns with the center of the cabinet cut-out.
6.The cooktop glass frame under the cooktop glass MUST sit above the cabinet countertop so the unit is supported by its leveling legs. The cooktop glass should NOT directly touch the countertop If the cooktop glass is touching the countertop, it could break, voiding the warranty.
IMPORTANT MAKE SURE the unit is supported by the leveling legs and NOT by the cooktop itself. The cooktop glass must sit above the surface of the countertops.

connecting the power
STEP 1. MEETING ELECTRICAL CONNECTION REQUIREMENTS
CAUTION CAUTION For personal safety, do not use an extension cord with this appliance. Remove the house fuse or open the circuit breaker before beginning installation.
This appliance must be supplied with the proper voltage and frequency, and be connected to an individual, properly
grounded branch circuit, protected by a circuit breaker or fuse having amperage as specified on the rating plate. The rating plate is located above the drawer on the oven frame. (Fig. 1 or Fig. 2)
We recommend you have the electrical wiring and hookup of your range connected by a qualified electrician. After installation, 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 oven 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–Latest Edition. You can get a copy by writing:
National Fire Protection Association
Batterymarch Park
Quincy, MA 02269
(Fig. 1)
(Fig. 2)
Effective January 1, 1996, the National Electrical Code requires that new construction (not existing) utilize a 4-conductor connection to an electric range.
When installing an electric range in new construction, follow Steps 2 and 3 for a 4-wire connection.
You must use a 3-wire or 4-wire, single-phase A.C. 208Y/120 Volt or 240/120 Volt, 60 hertz electrical system.
If the electrical service provided does not meet the above specifications, have a licensed electrician install an approved outlet.
Use only a 3-conductor or a 4-conductor UL-listed range cord. These cords may be provided with ring terminals on the wire and a strain relief device.

A range cord rated at 40 amps with 125/250 minimum volt range is required. A 50 amp range cord is not recommended but if used, it should be marked for use with nominal 13⁄8” diameter connection openings. Care should be taken to center the cable and strain relief within the knockout hole to keep the edge from damaging the cable.
•Because range terminals are not accessible after the range is in position, a flexible service conduit or cord must be used.
NOTE If conduit is being used, go to Step 4 on page 12.
ALL NEW BRANCH-CIRCUIT CONSTRUCTIONS, MOBILE HOMES, RECREATIONAL VEHICLES, AND INSTALLATIONS WHERE LOCAL CODES DO NOT ALLOW GROUNDING THROUGH NEUTRAL, REQUIRE A 4-CONDUCTOR UL-LISTED RANGE CORD.
STEP 2. ACCESSING THE POWER CORD CONNECTION
Loosen and then remove the rear access cover screw with a screwdriver. Remove the rear access cover by lifting it up and then out. The terminal block will then be accessible.
