30" ELECTRIC SLIDE-IN RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Direct Electrical Connection to the Circuit
Breaker, Fuse Box or Junction Box
Disconnect power to the circuit breaker
or fuse box before making the electrical connection.
If the appliance is connected directly to the circuit
breaker, fuse box or junction box, use flexible, armored
or nonmetallic sheathed copper cable (with grounding
wire). Supply a U.L. listed strain-relief at each end of
the cable. At the appliance end, the cable goes through
the Direct Connection Hole (see Figure 4) on the Cord
Mounting Plate. Wire sizes
(copper wire only)
and
connections must conform to the rating of the appliance.
Where local codes permit connecting the
appliance-grounding conductor to the neutral
(white) wire (see Figure 5):
1. Be sure that no power is supplied on the cable from
residence.
2. DO NOT remove the grounding strap for 3-wire
installation.
3. In the circuit breaker, fuse box or junction box:
a) Connect the green (or bare copper) wire, the white
appliance cable wire, and the neutral (white) wire
together.
b) Connect the 2 black wires together.
c) Connect the 2 red wires together.

Where local codes DO NOT permit connecting

system (see Figure 6):
1. Be sure that no power is supplied on the cable
from residence.
2. Remove the grounding strap from the terminal
block and from the appliance frame.
3. In the circuit breaker, fuse box or junction box:
a) Connect the white appliance cable wire to the
neutral (white) wire.
b) Connect the 2 black wires together.
c) Connect the 2 red wires together.
d) Connect the green (or bare copper) grounding
wire to the grounding wire of the circuit breaker,
fuse box or junction box.

Cabinet Construction
6.1
To eliminate the risk of burns
or fire by reaching over heated surface units, do not
have cabinet storage space above the range. If there
is cabinet storage space above range, reduce risk
by installing a range hood that projects horizontally
a minimum of 5" (12,7 cm) beyond the bottom of the
cabinet.
6.2
Countertop Preparation
• The cooktop sides of the range fit over the cutout
edge of your countertop.
• If you have a
square finish (flat) countertop
, no
countertop preparation is required. Cooktop sides lay
directly on edge of countertop.
• Formed front-edged countertops
must have
molded edge shaved flat 3/4" (1,9 cm) from each
front corner of opening (Figure 7).
• Tile countertops
may need trim cut back 3/4" (1,9
cm) from each front corner and/or rounded edge
flattened (Figure 7).
• If the existing cutout width is greater than 30
1/16" (76,4 cm),
reduce the ¾" (1,9 cm) dimension.
