CAUTION
Remove house fuse or open circuit breaker before beginning installation.
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 specifi ed on the rating plate. The
rating plate is located above the drawer on the oven frame. (Fig. 1 or Fig. 2)
We recommend you have the electrical wiring and hookup of your range
connected by a qualifi ed 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 oven 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 construction (not
existing) utilize a 4-conductor connection to an electric range.
When installing an electric range in new construction, follow Steps 2 and 3 for 4-wire
connection.
You must use a 3-wire or 4-wire, single-phase A.C. 208Y/120 Volt or 240/120 Volt, 60 hertz electrical
system.
If the electrical service provided does not meet the above specifi cations, have a licensed electrician
install an approved outlet.
Use only a 3-conductor or a 4-conductor UL-listed range cord. These cords may be provided with ring
terminals on wire and a strain relief device.
A range cord rated at 40 amps with 125/250 minimum volt range is required. A 50 amp range cord
is not recommended but if used, it should be marked for use with nominal 1
openings. Care should be taken to center the cable and strain relief within the knockout hole to keep
the edge from damaging the cable.
• Because range terminals are not accessible after range is in position, fl exible service conduit or cord
must be used.

ALL NEW BRANCH-CIRCUIT CONSTRUCTIONS, MOBILE HOMES,
RECREATIONAL VEHICLES AND INSTALLATIONS WHERE LOCAL CODES DO
NOT ALLOW GROUNDING THROUGH NEUTRAL, REQUIRE A 4-CONDUCTOR
UL-LISTED RANGE CORD.
