Your safety and the safety of others are very important.
We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on the appliance.
Always read and obey all safety messages.
This is the safety alert symbol.
This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.
All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word
“DANGER” or “WARNING.” These words mean:
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don’t
immediately follow instructions.
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don’t

Parts needed
If using a power supply cord:
A UL listed power supply cord kit marked for •
use with ranges.
The cord should be rated at 250 volts minimum,
40 amps or 50 amps that is marked for use with
nominal 1 3/8" (3.5 cm) diameter connection
opening and must end in ring terminals or open end spade terminals with upturned ends.
A UL listed strain relief.•
Check local codes. Check existing electrical
supply. See “Electrical Requirements” on page
2-5. It is recommended that all electrical connections should be made by a licensed, quali-
edelectricalinstaller.

Location Requirements
IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes
and ordinances.
It is the installer’s responsibility to comply •
withinstallationclearancesspeciedonthe
model/serial rating plate. The model/serial
rating plate is located on the right-hand side
of the oven frame behind the storage drawer
panel.
The range should be located for convenient •
use in the kitchen.
Toeliminatetheriskofburnsorrebyreach-•
ing over heated surface units, cabinet storage space located above the surface units
should be avoided. If cabinet storage is to be
provided, the risk can be reduced by installing a range hood that projects horizontally a
minimum of 5" (12.7 cm) beyond the bottom
of the cabinets.
Cabinet opening dimensions that are shown •
must be used. Given dimensions are minimum
clearances.
Theooranti-tipbracketmustbeinstalled.•
To install the antitip bracket shipped with
the range, see “Install Anti-Tip Bracket”
section.
Grounded electrical supply is required. See •
“Electrical Requirements” section.
IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to your cabinets, check with your builder or cabinet supplier
to make sure that the materials used will not discolor, delaminate or sustain other damage. This
oven has been designed in accordance with the
requirements of UL and CSA International and
complies with the maximum allowable wood
cabinet temperatures of 194°F (90°C).
Mobile Home - Additional Installation Requirements
Mobile home installations require:
When this range is installed in a mobile •
home,itmustbesecuredtotheoorduring
transit. Any method of securing the range
is adequate as long as it conforms to the
standards listed above.
Four-wire power supply cord or cable must •
be used in a mobile home installation. The
appliance wiring will need to be revised. See
“Electrical Connection” on page 2-5.
The installation of this range must conform
to 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
280). When such standard is not applicable, the
Standard for Manufactured Home Installations,
ANSI A225.1/NFPA 501A or with local codes.

Electrical Requirements
If codes permit and a separate ground wire is
used,itisrecommendedthataqualiedelectrical installer determine that the ground path
is adequate and wire gauge is in accordance
with local codes.
Do not use an extension cord.
Be sure that the electrical connection and wire
size are adequate and in conformance with the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/ NFPA 70-latest
edition and all local codes and ordinances.
Allow 2 to 3 ft (61.0 cm to 91.4 cm) of slack •
in the line so that the range can be moved if
servicing is ever necessary.
A UL listed conduit connector must be pro-•
vided at each end of the power supply cable
(at the range and at the junction box).
Wire sizes and connections must conform •
with the rating of the range (40 amps).
The wiring diagram is located on the un-•
derside of the storage drawer or below the
warming drawer in a clear plastic bag.
If using a power supply cord:
A copy of the above code standards can be
obtained from:
National Fire Protection Association
One Battery march Park

Electrical Connection
To properly install your range, you must determine the type of electrical connection you will
be using and follow the instructions provided
for it here.
Range must be connected to the proper •
electricalvoltageandfrequencyasspecied
on the model/serial number rating plate. (The
model/serial number rating plate is located
on the oven frame behind the storage drawer
panel.)
When a 4-wire or 3-wire, single phase 120/240 •
volt, 60 Hz, AC only electrical supply is available, a 50-amp maximum circuit protection is
required(or,ifspeciedonthemodel/serial
rating plate, when a 4-wire or 3-wire single
phase 120/208 volt 60 Hz, AC only electrical
supply is available, a 40- or 50-amp maximum
circuit protection is required), fused on both
sides of the line.
A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recom-•
mended.
The range can be connected directly to the •
fused disconnect (or circuit breaker box)
through exible or nonmetallic sheathed,
copper or aluminum cable. See “Electrical
Connection.”
A UL listed power supply cord kit marked for •
use with ranges. The cord should be rated
at 250 volts minimum, 40 amps or 50 amps
that is marked for use with nominal 1 3/8"
(3.5 cm) diameter connection opening and
must end in ring terminals or open-end spade
terminals with upturned ends.
A UL listed strain relief.•
If connecting to a 4-wire system:
This range is manufactured with the ground
connected to the cabinet. The ground must be
revised so the green ground wire of the 4-wire
power supply cord is connected to the cabinet.
See “Electrical Connection.”
Grounding through the neutral conductor is
prohibited for new branch-circuit installations
(1996 NEC); mobile homes; and recreational
vehicles, or an area where local codes prohibit
grounding through the neutral conductor.
When a 4-wire receptacle of NEMA Type 14-50R
is used, a matching UL listed, 4-wire, 250 volt,
40-amp, range power supply cord (pigtail) must
be used. This cord contains 4 copper conductors
with ring terminals or open-end spade terminals
with upturned ends, terminating in a NEMA Type
14-50R plug on the supply end.

The cord should be Type SRD or SRDT with a
4-wire receptacle (14-50R)
3-wire receptacle (10-50R)
UL listed strain relief and be at least 4 ft (1.22
m) long.
The minimum conductor sized for the copper
4-wire power cord are:
If connecting to a 3-wire system:
Local codes may permit the use of a UL listed,
3-wire, 250 volt, 40-amp range power supply
cord (pigtail). This cord contains 3 copper conductors with ring terminals or open-end spade
terminals with upturned ends, terminating in a
NEMA Type 10-50P plug on the supply end.
Connectors on the appliance end must be provided at the point the power supply cord enters
the appliance. This uses a 3-wire receptacle of
NEMA Type 10-50R.
