Remove the lower rear range wiring cover to expose the connector block
and bracket.

Remove the knockout ring (1

″

) located on bracket directly below the

connector. To remove the knockout, use a pair of pliers to bend the
knockout ring away from the bracket and twist until ring is removed.

Assemble the strain relief in the hole. Insert the power cord through the

strain relief and tighten. Allow enough slack to easily attach the cord
terminals to the connector block. If tabs are present at the end of the winged
strain relief, they can be removed for better fit.

NOTE:

Do not install the power cord without a strain relief. The strain relief bracket should

be installed before reinstalling the rear range wiring cover.
