RANGE SAFETY  
Your safety and the safety of others are very important.  
We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety  
messages.  
This is the safety alert symbol.  
This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.  
All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word “DANGER” or “WARNING.”  
These words mean:  
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately  
follow instructions.  
DANGER  
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't  
instructions.  
follow  
WARNING  
All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can  
happen if the instructions are not followed.  
WARNING  
Tip Over Hazard  
A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.  
Connect anti-tip bracket to rear range foot.  
Reconnect the anti-tip bracket, if the range is moved.  
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious burns to children and adults.  
IMPORTANT:  
Save for local electrical inspector's use.

Cabinet Dimensions  
Electrical Requirements - U.S.A. Only  
Cabinet opening dimensions shown are for 25" (64.0 cm)  
countertop depth, 24" (61.0 cm) base cabinet depth and  
36" (91.4 cm) countertop height.  
If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is  
recommended that a qualified electrical installer determine that  
the ground path and wire gauge are in accordance with local  
codes.  
IMPORTANT: If installing a range hood or microwave hood  
combination above the range, follow the range hood or  
microwave hood combination installation instructions for  
dimensional clearances above the cooktop surface.  
Do not use an extension cord.  
Be sure that the electrical connection and wire size are adequate  
and in conformance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/  
NFPA 70-latest edition and all local codes and ordinances.  
A freestanding range may be installed next to combustible walls  
with zero clearance.  
A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:  
National Fire Protection Association  
One Batterymarch Park  
Quincy, MA 02269.  
WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding  
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a  
qualified electrician or service technician 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.

Electrical Connection  
If connecting to a 4-wire system:  
To properly install your range, you must determine the type of  
electrical connection you will be using and follow the instructions  
provided for it here.  
This range is manufactured with the ground connected to the  
neutral by a link. The ground must be revised so the green  
ground wire of the 4-wire power supply cord is connected to the  
cabinet. See “Electrical Connection.”  
Range must be connected to the proper electrical voltage  
and frequency as specified on the model/serial number rating  
plate. The model/serial number rating plate is located behind  
the control panel or on the oven frame behind the storage  
drawer panel. Refer to the figures in the “Product  
Grounding through the neutral conductor is prohibited for new  
branch-circuit installations (1996 NEC); mobile homes; and  
recreational vehicles, or an area where local codes prohibit  
grounding through the neutral conductor.  
Dimensions” section of the “Location Requirements” section.  
When a 4-wire receptacle of NEMA Type 14-50R is used, a  
matching UL listed, 4-wire, 250-volt, 40- or 50-amp, range power  
supply cord (pigtail) must be used. This cord contains 4 copper  
conductors with ring terminals or open-end spade terminals with  
upturned ends, terminating in a NEMA Type 14-50P plug on the  
supply end.  
This range is manufactured with the neutral terminal  
connected to the cabinet. Use a 3-wire, UL listed, 40- or  
50-amp power supply cord (pigtail) (see Range Rating chart  
below). If local codes do not permit ground through the  
neutral, use a 4-wire power supply cord rated at 250 volts,  
40 or 50 amps and investigated for use with ranges.  
The fourth (grounding) conductor must be identified by a green or  
green/yellow cover and the neutral conductor by a white cover.  
Cord should be Type SRD or SRDT with a UL listed strain relief  
and be at least 4 ft (1.22 m) long.

cord are:  
**If connecting to a 50-amp circuit, use a 50-amp rated cord with  
kit. For 50-amp rated cord kits, use kits that specify use with a  
nominal 1³⁄₈" (34.9 mm) diameter connection opening.  
40-amp circuit  
A circuit breaker is recommended.  
2 No.-8 conductors  
1 No.-10 white neutral  
1 No.-8 green grounding  
The range can be connected directly to the circuit breaker  
box (or fused disconnect) through flexible or nonmetallic  
sheathed, copper or aluminum cable. See “Electrical  
Connection.”  
If connecting to a 3-wire system:  
Local codes may permit the use of a UL listed, 3-wire, 250-volt,  
40- or 50-amp range power supply cord (pigtail). This cord  
contains 3 copper conductors with ring terminals or open-end  
spade terminals with upturned ends, terminating in a NEMA Type  
10-50P plug on the supply end. Connectors on the appliance end  
must be provided at the point the power supply cord enters the  
appliance. This uses a 3-wire receptacle of NEMA Type 10-50R.  
Allow 2 to 3 ft (61.0 cm to 91.4 cm) of slack in the line so that  
the range can be moved if servicing is ever necessary.  
A UL listed conduit connector must be provided at each end  
of the power supply cable (at the range and at the junction  
box).  
Wire sizes and connections must conform with the rating of  
the range.  
The wiring diagram is located on the back of the range or  
inside the storage drawer in a clear plastic bag.

WARNING  
Electrical supply is connected.  
See “Troubleshooting” in the Use and Care Guide.  
When the range has been on for 5 minutes, check for heat. If  
range is cold, turn off the range and contact a qualified  
technician.  
Electrical Shock Hazard  
Moving the Range  
Disconnect power before servicing.  
Replace all parts and panels before operating.  
Failure to do so can result in death or electrical shock.

bracket.  
A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.  
Connect anti-tip bracket to rear range foot.  
Reconnect the anti-tip bracket, if the range is moved.  
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death  
or serious burns to children and adults.
