30” min. clearance between the top of the cooking
platform and the bottom of an unprotected wood or

Injury Hazard
To eliminate the risk of burns or fire, avoid
installing cabinet storage above the cooking
surface. If cabinets are already installed, reduce
the hazard of reaching over a heated cooking
surface by installing a range hood. The range
hood should extend a minimum of 5 inches
out from the bottom front of the cabinets.
Reaching over a heated cooking surface could
result in a serious burn.
Mobile home installation
The installation of this range must conform to the
Manufactured Home Construction and Safety
Standards, Title 24 CFR, Part 3280 (formerly the
Federal Standard for Mobile Home Construction and
Safety, Title 24, HUD, Part 280); or when such
standard is not applicable, the Standard for
Manufactured Homes Installations (Manufactured
Home Sites, Communities and Setups), ANSI
A225.1/NFPA 501A, or with local codes*.
When this range is installed in a mobile home, it must
be secured to the floor during transit. Any method of
securing the range is adequate as long as it conforms
to the standards listed above.
Four-wire power supply cable must be used in a
mobile home installation. The appliance wiring will
need to be revised. See four-wire electrical
connection, Panel B.

Electrical Shock Hazard
Electrically ground range.
Failure to follow this instruction could result in
death, fire or electrical shock.
Tools needed for
installation:
If codes permit and a separate grounding wire is
used, it is recommended that a qualified electrician
determine that the grounding path is adequate.
Do Not ground to a gas pipe.
Check with a qualified electrician if you are not sure
range is grounded.
Do Not have a fuse in the neutral or grounding
circuit.
Only a power supply cord kit rated at 250 volts, 40
amperes and investigated for use with ranges should
be used.
Do Not plug the “pigtail” power cord into a live wall
receptacle before the cord is permanently connected
to the terminal block.

n
requirement for mobile homes: This
appliance is manufactured with ground
connected to cabinet. The ground must be revised so
the green grounding wire of the four-wire power supply
cord is connected to the cabinet.
When a four-wire receptacle of NEMA type 14-50R is
used (See Figure l), a matching U.L.-listed, four-wire,
250~volt, 40-ampere, range power supply cord (pigtail)
must be used. This cord contains four copper conductors
with ring terminals on the appliance end, terminating in a
NEMA Type 14-50P plug on the supply end. 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 U.L.-
listed strain relief and be at least four feet long.
The MINIMUM conductor sizes for the copper
four-wire power supply cord are:
40-ampere circuit
2, No.-8 conductors
1, No.-10 white neutral
1, No.-8 green grounding
JD.I
Three-wire installation if a four-wire
system is not available: Local codes may
permit the use of a U.L.-listed, 250-volt,
40-ampere range power supply cord (pigtail). This cord
contains three, No.-10 copper wires and matches a
three-wire receptacle of NEMA Type lo-50R, shown in
Figure 2. Connectors on the appliance end must be ring
terminals. A U.L.-listed strain relief must be used to
connect the power supply cord to the range.
E-l
This range should be connected directly to
n
the fused disconnect or circuit breaker box
- through flexible, armored or non-metallic
sheathed, copper cable (with grounding wire). Locate the
junction box to allow two to three feet of slack in the line
so that the range can be moved if servicing is ever
necessary. Do Not cut the conduit.
A U.L.-listed conduit connector must be provided at each
end of the power supply cable (at the range and at the
junction box).
El
Wire sizes and connections must conform to
the requirements of the National Electrical
H Code, ANSVNFPA 70 - latest edition (*, see
Panel A) and all local codes and ordinances
for the kilowatt rating of the range (40-amperes).
