II
Read these instructions completely and carefully.
If followed, they will simplify the installation job.
If your range does not have a microwave upper
oven, disregard the following microwave information.
IMPORTANT:
Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
Failure to follow these instructions could lead
to fire or electrical shock hazard.
A. Space requirements
PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY
Do not attempt to operate this oven with the door open
since open-door operation can result in harmful exposure to
microwave energy. It is important not to defeat or tamper
with the safety interlocks.
Do
not place any object between the oven front face and
the door or allow soil or cleaner residue to accumulate on
sealing surfaces.
Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. It is particularly
important that the oven door close properly and that
there is no damage to the:
1. Door (bent)
2. Hinges and latches (broken or loosened)
3. Door seals and sealing surfaces.
The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone
except properly qualified service personnel.
The oven should be checked for microwave leakage by
qualified service personnel after a repair is made.
Do not operate the oven if the door glass is broken.

To prevent discoloration of base cabinet, front of oven frame
must extend at least l/2” beyond front surface of cabinets.
Do not seal range to cabinets.
\
The copper power cord (pigtail) must run downward, left or right
to the wall receptacle to avoid pinching the cord between rear
portion of the range and wall.
Top of eye-level oven may be installed against bottom of overhead cabinet. However, for easy installation and removal, allow
1” clearance between oven top and cabinet. or 1” clearance
between hood top and cabinet. When hood is attached to cabinet, allow 1” clearance between hood bottom and oven top.
The back of a free-standing range may be installed against a
vertical wall. Sides may be installed against base cabinets or
against vertical walls extending above upper edge of the cook
top.
CAUTION:
Reaching over heated surface elements causes risk _.
being burned. To eliminate hazard, cabinets should NOT
be installed above range.
If cabinets are already provided, reduce hazard by instal-
ling a range hood. Hood should project horizontally beyond
bottom of cabinets by a minimum of 5 inches.
I-If
B.Check microwave for damage
Remove all packing material from the oven cavity. When
unpacking the unit, check for damage such as misaligned
door, damaged gaskets around the door, or dents inside the
oven or on the exterior. If there is any damage, please do
not operate the unit until it has been checked by an authorized Whirlpool trained service technician.
C. Electrical requirements
Wire size and connectors must conform to
the ampere rating of the range as stated in
paragraph C-l.
IMPORTANT:
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE
LOCAL ELECTRICAL INSPECTOR’S USE
WARNING: DO NOT PLUG THE “PIGTAIL”
POWER CORD INTO A LIVE WALL
RECEPTACLE
PERMANENTLY CONNECTED TO THE
TERMINAL BLOCK.
1. This appliance must be connected to the proper
electrical voltage and frequency as specified on
nameplate. Models rated at 15 KW on 240 volts
(11.25 KW on 208 V) or more require a separate 50
ampere circuit. Models rated less than 15 KW on 240
volts (11.25 KW on 208 V) require a separate 40
ampere circuit. Fuse both sides of the line. DO NOT
fuse the neutral. A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker
is recommended. Wire sizes must conform to the
requirements of the National Electrical Code and/or
local codes and ordinances for the kilowatt rating of
the range. The nameplate is located on the front
frame of the main oven behind the main door. For
the Eye-level Microwave, it is on the front frame
behind microwave oven door.
2. All wires ending at the appliance must terminate in
ring type terminals.
3. All power cords and cables to appliance must be
fitted with a UL approved strain relief.
4. The range should be connected with copper wire
only. Aluminum wire requires special connectors.
Improper use may create a fire hazard.
5. Appliance may be connected directly to the fused
disconnect (or circuit breaker) box through flexible
armored or non-metallic sheathed copper cable. Do
not use an extension cord. Allow 4 feet (min.) slack
so appliance can be moved for servicing. Wire sizes
must conform to the ampere rating of the range. See
paragraph C-l above.
6. WARNING: THE TERMINAL BLOCK ON THE
APPLIANCE ACCEPTS COPPER WIRE ONLY,
NOT ALUMINUM. IF ALUMINUM HOUSE WIRING
MUST BE CONNECTED, USE ONE OF THE
FOLLOWING PROCEDURES:
BEFORE
CORD IS
Attach special ring connectors to the aluminum
house wiring that are UL listed and designed
for joining copper to aluminum. These special
ring connectors (available at electrical supply
houses) can be attached directly to the range
terminal block.
The connectors must conform to the ampere
rating of the range as stated in paragraph C-l.
7. If local codes permit, your range may be connected
with a three wire flexible type, UL listed “pigtail”
power cord of the proper ampere rating.* Plug must
match a 3-wire NEMA type lo-50R receptacle
(shown below).
8. CAUTION: FOR MOBILE HOME USE, A 4-WIRE
POWER CORD MUST BE USED. This appliance is
manufactured with ground connected to frame. This
must be revised so green ground wire of 4-wire
power cord is connected to frame.
If using a 4-wire NEMA type 14-50R receptacle
(shown above) you must use a matching 4-wire UL
listed “pigtail” power cord. Cord should be type SRD
or SRDT, at least 4 feet long with all conductors
ending in ring terminals at the appliance.
MINIMUM CONDUCTOR SIZE. . .
(4-WIRE COPPER POWER CORD)
For 40 ampere circuits: two No. 8 conductors, one
No. 10 white neutral, and one No. 8 green ground.
For 50 ampere circuits: two No. 6 conductors, one
No. 8 neutral and one No. 6 green ground.
*CAUTION: Power Cord Requirements - Only a
power supply cord kit rated at 240 volts, 50 amperes
and investigated for use with ranges shall be used.
l Connect copper wire to the range terminal block
(using ring terminals).
l Connect the copper wire to the aluminum house
wiring using special connectors UL listed and
designed for joining copper to aluminum.
