supply and electrical supply. See “Electrical Requirements” and

It is the installer’s responsibility to comply with installation
clearances specified on the model/serial rating plate. The
model/serial rating plate is located inside the oven door on
the right-hand side oven door trim.

The range should be located for convenient use in the
kitchen.
