PLEASE KEEP THIS MANUAL FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

This manual is intended to assist in the initial installation and adjustments of the range.

• Only qualified personnel should install or service this range.

• Read “Safety Instructions” in Use & Care book before using range.

• Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service, maintenance or use of range

can result in serious injury or property damage.

• Installer, take care not to damage flooring.

Do not lift or move range by grasping door handles or main top.

This range has been designed in accordance with the

requirements of various safety agencies and complies with the

maximum allowable wood cabinet temperatures of 194˚F. If this

range is installed with cabinets that have a lower working

temperature than 194˚F, discoloration, delamination or melting

may occur.

Place range in a well lit area. Do not set range over holes in the

floor or other locations where it may be subject to strong

drafts. Any opening in the wall behind the range and in the

floor under the range should be sealed. Make sure the flow of

cooling/ventilation air is not obstructed below the range. Note:

A range should NOT be installed over kitchen carpeting.

A risk of range tip-over exists if the appliance is not installed in

accordance with the provided installation instructions. The proper use

of the ANTI-TIP device minimizes the risk of TIP-OVER. In using this

device the consumer must still observe the safety precautions as

stated in the USE and CARE MANUAL and avoid using the oven doors

as a step stool. Installation instructions are provided for wood and

cement in either floor or wall. Any other type of construction may

require special installation techniques as deemed necessary to

provide adequate fastening of the ANTI-TIP bracket to the floor or wall.

The bracket must be installed to engage the RIGHT or LEFT rear

leveling foot. Install the bracket as shown in step 9.

CONNECTING THE RANGE

The range must be installed in accordance with Local and National

Electric Code (NEC) ANSI/NFPA No. 70-latest edition, or Canadian

Electric Code CSA STD.C221 latest edition. See rating plate for total

connected KW rating.

Your local utility company will tell you whether the present electric

service to your home is adequate. It may be necessary to increase the

size of the wiring to the house and service switch to take care of the

electrical load demanded by the range. The kilowatt rating for the

range is specified on the rating plate. See step 8 for location of rating

plate.

Most local Building Regulations and Codes require that all electrical

wiring be done by licensed electricians. All wiring should conform to

Local and National Electrical Codes. This range requires a single phase

three wire 120/240 or a 120/208 volt, 60 Hz, AC circuit. Wiring codes

require a separate circuit be run from the main entrance panel to the

range and that it be equipped with separate disconnect switch and

fuses, either in the main entrance panel or in a separate switch and

fuse box.

Some models are shipped direct from the factory with service cord

attached. There are no range connections necessary on these models.

Just plug into the wall outlet. On models not provided with a service

cord, connection to the power supply is necessary in accordance with

local codes. Provisions for using either conduit or a flexible power cord

are provided. When using a power supply cord, use only a supply cord

with closed loop terminals rated either 240 volts, 40 amps or 240 volts,

50 amps that is marked for use with nominal 1-3/8” (34.94 mm)

diameter connection opening and marked for ranges. A 4-conductor

cord is to be used on new branch-circuit installations (1996 NEC),

mobile homes, recreational vehicles and where local codes prohibit

grounding through the neutral conductor. A 3-wire service may be used

when permitted by local codes. When a power supply cord is used, a

cord no longer than 4 feet should be used.
