Power supply cord method:

1.

Disconnect power.

2.

Remove the knockout for the 40 amp
power supply cord.

3.

Assemble a U.L.-listed strain relief in
the opening. 

4.

Insert the power supply cord through
the strain relief, allowing enough
slack to easily attach the wiring to the
terminal block.

WARNING

- Improper connection of the

equipment-grounding conductor can
result in a risk of electric shock. Check
with a qualified electrician or serviceman
if you are in doubt as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded. Do not
modify the power supply cord plug. If it
will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.

This range is manufactured with the
neutral terminal connected to the cabinet.
Use a three-wire, U.L.-listed, 40 amp
power supply cord (pigtail); or if local
codes Do not permit ground through the
neutral, use a four-wire power supply
cord rated at 250 volts, 40 amps and
investigated for use with ranges. (See
“Four-wire electrical connection.”)

5.

Use either ring-type terminals or
spade terminals with upturned ends
to connect the power supply.

6.

Complete electrical connection
according to your type electrical
supply (“Four-wire electrical
connection” or “Three-wire electrical
connection.”)

Four-wire electrical connection:

Use this method for new installations,
mobile homes, recreational vehicles and
whenever four-wire installation is
required.

7.

Remove the ground-link screw from
the range frame. Save the ground-link
screw. Bend up the ground link so
that it does not contact the range. See
Figure 1.

8.

Connect the green ground wire from
power supply cord to the range using
the ground-link screw. The ground
wire must be attached first and must
not contact any other terminal. See
Figure 2.

9.

Use 3/8" nut driver and remove the
outside nuts on the terminal block
screws. Do not loosen the factory-
tightened nuts behind the outside
nuts.

10. Connect the neutral wire (center wire)

to the center terminal screw on the
terminal block. See Figure 2.

11. Connect the other two wires (lines 1

and 2) to the outer screws on the
terminal block. See Figure 2.

12. Securely tighten nuts with 3/8" nut

driver for proper electrical
connection.

13. Tighten the strain relief screws.

14. Replace the terminal block cover.

15. Plug power supply cord into

grounded electrical outlet.

Three-wire electrical
connection:

Use this method only if local codes
permit connecting cabinet-ground
conductor to neutral wire of power
supply cord.

7.

Use 3/8" nut driver and remove the
outside nuts on the terminal block
screws. Do not loosen the factory-
tightened nuts behind the outside
nuts.

8.

Connect the neutral wire (center wire)
to the center terminal screw on the
terminal block. See Figure 3.

9.

Connect the other two wires (lines 1
and 2) to outer terminal screws on the
terminal block. See Figure 3.

10. Securely tighten nuts with 3/8" nut

driver for proper electrical
connection.

11. Tighten the strain relief screws.

12. Replace the terminal block cover.

13. Plug power supply cord into

grounded electrical outlet.

NOTE:

The bag containing three

aluminum terminal lugs is not used
when connecting the range using a
power supply cord.
