•Remove all tape and packaging. Remove clear
plastic film that covers some parts (around glass
oven doors, side trim) and any tape or packaging
from inside the oven.
•Remove the accessory pack from the oven.
•Check to see if any range parts have come loose
during shipping.

REMOVINGPACKAGING
MATERIAL
Any packaging materials must be
removed during installation. This
will include adhesive tape, wire ties,
cardboard and protective plastic.
Failure to remove these materials
could result in damage to the
appliance once the appliance has
been turned on and surfaces have
heated.

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 time delay fuse,
as noted on rating plate.
Wiring must conform to National Electrical Codes.
If the electric service provided does not meet the
above specifications, call a licensed electrician.

Effective January 1, 1996, the National Electrical
Code requires that new or rewired construction
utilize a 4- conductor connection to an electric
range. When installing an electric range in a new
construction, follow the instructions in NEW
CONSTRUCTION AND FOUR-CONDUCTOR
BRANCH CIRCUIT CONNECTION.
If you fall to wire your range in accordance with
governing codes, you may create a hazardous
condition.
You must use a three-wire, single-phase AC I20/240
Volt or 208Y/120 Volt, 60 Hertz electrical system to
operate your range.
Use #8 gauge wire and 40 Amp fuse or circuit
breaker for 120/240 Volt and 208 Y/120 Voltsystems.
The range connector block is approved for copper
wire connection only. ff you are connecting to
aluminum house wiring, you must use special UL
approved connectors forjoining copperto aluminum.

Remove the junction block access cover (on range
back). See Fig. 4A or Fig, 4B. Some models will
have a one-piece wire cover as shown in Fig, 4B.
When reinstalling the one-piece wire cover, make
sure that wire does not become pinched between
wire cover and mainback.

All new constructions, mobile homes and
installations where local codes do not allow
grounding through neutral, require a four-wire
flexible cord kit. If the range is rated between
8, 750 and 16,500 watts, the cord kit must be rated
for 40 amps-125/250 volts, ff the range is rated
between 16,501 and 22,500 watts, the cord kit
must be rated for 50 amps-125/250 volts. For
existing construction, a three wire flexible cord kit
may be used, and the same ratings apply as
described above.
When using a cord kit rated 40 Amps, remove
the next to outermost knockout (13/8" diameter)
in the connection plate. Likewise, when using
a cordkitrated 50Amps, remove the outermost
knockout (1 3/4" diameter) in the plate.
You must use a clamp or strain relief to hold the
cord.
•Terminations must be either closed loop
terminals or open end spade lugs.
