General Information
Overall Dimensions
Location Level and Plumb
For best results, cabinets, countertops, walls and floors in
the installation location should be as level and plumb as
possible. Variance may cause damage to countertops and
floors during installation, could jeopardize the seal around
the cooktop, and may adversely affect cooking and baking
performance.
Installation Hints
To make the range lighter and easier to handle during
installation, remove the range oven door and warming
drawer (see section on door and warming drawer removal/
reinstallation).
If the warming drawer is not removed then tape must be
placed securely on the warming drawer before installation
to prevent it from opening while the range is being installed.
Place a piece of cardboard or cloth under the range during
installation to protect floors.
Electrical Requirements
Refer to data plate for more information. See the product
“Data Plate” in the section on Service in this manual.
We recommend that the range be installed with a
power cord set (not supplied with U.S. models). The
electrical rating of the power cord set must be 120/240 volt,
40 amperes minimum. The power cord set must be marked
“For Use with Ranges.” Always use a new power cord.
Verify that wiring to the house is adequate. Contact your
local utility company to verify that the present electric
service to your home is adequate. In some instances, the
size of the wiring to the house and service switch must be
increased to handle the electrical load demanded by the
range.
Some wiring codes require a separate circuit with separate
disconnect switch and fuses either in the main entrance
panel or in a separate switch and fuse box.
The range requires a minimum of a three-wire 120/240 or
120/208 volt, 40 - 50 amp, 60 Hz AC circuit. Check local
codes for proper amperage ratings. A four-wire connection
is preferred. Most local building regulations and codes
require that electrical wiring be done by licensed
electricians. Be sure to install your range according to the
electric codes in your region.
Electrical kW Rating
Ranges are dual rated for use on either 120/240 VAC or
120/208 VAC. Check the data plate for the kW rating.
Reference the kW rating in the table below to determine
amperage requirements.
* Varies by location. Check local codes.
Electric Outlet Location
A flush mount 208/240 VAC dedicated circuit outlet is
required. Use the diagram below to make sure your
installation in properly prepared for the range. Note the
available space for the electrical outlet is shown in the gray
box (E) in the illustration following.
