FOR YOUR SAFETY
WARNING:
For personal safety,
remove house fuse or open circuit breaker
before beginning installation. Failure to do
so could result in serious injury or death.
•
All rough-in and spacing dimensions must be
met for safe use of your range.
•
To reduce the risk of burns or fire when
reaching over hot surface elements, cabinet
storage space above the cooktop should be
avoided. If cabinet storage space is to be
provided above the cooktop, the risk can
be reduced by installing a range hood that
protrudes at least 5” beyond the front of
the cabinets. Cabinets installed above the
cooktop must be no deeper than 13”.
•
Be sure your appliance is properly installed
and grounded by a qualified technician.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
This appliance must be supplied with the
proper voltage and frequency, and connected
to an individual, properly grounded branch
circuit, protected by a circuit breaker or fuse
having amperage as noted on rating plate.
(Rating Plate is located behind the oven
door on the range.)
We recommend you have the electrical wiring
and hookup of your range connected by a
qualified electrician. After installation, have
the electrician show you where your main
range disconnect is located.
Check with your local utilities for electrical
codes which apply in your area. Failure to
wire your range according to governing codes
could result in a hazardous condition. If there
are no local codes, your range must be wired
and fused to meet the requirements of the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70—
Latest Edition. You can get a copy by writing:

Effective January 1, 1996, the National
Electrical Code requires that new, but not
existing, construction utilize a four-conductor
connection to an electric range. When
installing an electric range in new construction,
a mobile home, recreational vehicle or an area
where local codes prohibit grounding through
the neutral conductor, follow the instructions
in the section on NEW CONSTRUCTION
AND FOUR-CONDUCTOR BRANCH CIRCUIT
CONNECTION.
You must use a three-wire, single-phase A.C.
208Y/120 Volt or 240/120 Volt, 60 hertz electrical
system. If you connect to aluminum wiring,
properly installed connectors approved for
use with aluminum wiring must be used.
