ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

WARNING: This appliance must be properly grounded.

WARNING:

All new constructions, mobile homes, recreational vehicles and installations where

local codes do not allow grounding through neutral, require a 4-conductor UL-listed range cord.

WARNING: To prevent fire or shock, do not use an extension cord with this appliance.

WARNING: To prevent shock, remove house fuse or open circuit breaker before

beginning installation.

We recommend you have the electrical wiring and hookup of your range connected by a qualified

electrician. After installation, have the electrician show you how to disconnect power from the range.

You must use a single-phase, 120/208 VAC or 120/240 VAC, 60 hertz electrical system. If you connect

to aluminum wiring, properly installed connectors approved for use with aluminum wiring must be

used.

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, mobile home, recreational vehicle, or an area where local codes prohibit grounding

through the neutral conductor, refer to the section on four-conductor branch circuit connections.

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

oven must be wired and fused to meet the National Electrical Code, NFPA No. 70 – latest edition,

available from the National Fire Protecti on Association.

This appliance must be supplied with the proper voltage and frequency, and connected to an

individual, properly grounded, 40 amp (minimum) branch circuit protected by a circuit breaker

or time-delay fuse.

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

” diameter connection

openings. Care should be taken to center the cable and strain relief within the knockout hole to keep

the edge from damaging the cable.

The rating plate is located on the side of the drawer frame or under the cooktop.

Note: Use of automatic, wireless or wired external switches that shut off power to the appliances, are

not recommended for this product.

POWER CORD AND CONDUIT INSTALLATION

Remove wire cover (on the back of range) by removing screws using a 1/4” nut driver. You can

access the terminal block by either removing a terminal block cover (on some models) or the

wire cover. Do not discard these screws.

For power cord and 1” conduit only,

remove the

knockout ring (1

”) located on bracket directly

below the terminal block. To remove the

knockout, use a pair of pliers to bend the

knockout ring away from the bracket and

twist until ring is removed.

For 3/4” conduit installations only, purchase a squeeze connector matching the diameter

of your conduit and assemble it in the hole. Insert the conduit through the squeeze connector

and tighten. Allow enough slack to easily attach the wires to the terminal block. NOTE: Do not install the

conduit without a squeeze connector. The squeeze connector MUST be installed before reinstalling

the rear range wiring cover.

For power cord installations only

(see the next step if using conduit),

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 terminal 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 MUST be

installed before

reinstalling the rear range wiring cover.
