2. GENERAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
•Proper installation is your responsibility. Have a qualified technician install this oven. Make sure
you have everything necessary for proper installation. It is the responsibility of the installer to comply
with installation information specified on the model/serial ID plate. The model/serial ID plate can be
found on the internal frame of the oven when the door is opened.
•Have your oven installed and properly grounded by a qualified installer, in accordance with
these installation instructions. Grounding is mandatory according to the provisions of electrical
safety codes. If this appliance is connected to an external electrical power supply, it must be
grounded in compliance with local codes, or, if no local codes exist, in compliance with the national
ANSI / NFPA 70 code of electrical regulations.
• Make sure that the voltage and frequency of the power supply line correspond to the information
indicated on the model/serial ID plate. A multi-polar cut-out switch must be available on the supply
line with a contact gap equal to or greater than 3 mm, located in an easily accessible position near
the appliance.
• Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your oven unless it is specifically recommended in this
manual. All other service procedures should be performed by a qualified technician.
• This oven is not suitable for installation and operation in mobile homes or recreational vehicles.
•Electrical grounding is required. See the “Electrical Requirements” section. It is the customer’s
responsibility:

3. PREPARING THE BUILT–IN OVEN
WARNING
HEAVY WEIGHT HAZARD
- Have two or more people move and install the oven
- Failure to do so can result in back injury or other personal injuries.
The oven is designed for installation into any type of cabinetry as long as it is heat-resistant. Proceed
according to the dimensions shown in Pictures 1, 2 and 3. For installing under a countertop, use the
dimensions shown in Picture 3. For installing under a countertop beneath a cooktop with controls
connected to the oven, ensure a minimum clearance from any side walls of at least 110 mm as shown in
Picture 1.
For installing in a column, observe the dimensions shown in Picture 2 allowing for a clearance of 80 to 90
mm at the top and sides of the column. Tighten the four screws (ref. A) inside the frame to secure (Pic.
1).
For installing under a separate cooktop, allow for a rear and bottom clearance as shown in Picture 1 (ref.
B). See instructions regarding fitting and securing the cooktop.
It is important to follow these instructions before and during oven installation:
• Decide on the final location of the oven. Locate the existing wiring to avoid drilling into or severing
wiring during installation.
• To avoid damage to the floor, place the oven on cardboard prior to installation. Do not lift by the door
handle or any part of the frame or trim.
• Remove the shipping materials and tape from the oven.
• Remove the appliance literature included with the packaging.
• Remove racks and other parts from inside the oven and set aside.
• Slide the oven on the cardboard close to the oven’s final location.
• Remove the oven door (see paragraph “9.2 Removing the door” in the Instructions for the User
booklet)
IMPORTANT: Use both hands to remove the oven door.

4. MAKING THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
- Disconnect the power to the junction box before making the electrical
connection,
- Electrically ground the appliance with green or green-yellow wire
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT IN DEATH,
FIRE OR ELECTRICAL SHOCK.
This appliance is manufactured with a yellow-green or green ground wire connected to the oven frame.
To prepare the connection between the oven and the junction box:
- Disconnect the power supply to the junction box.
- Feed the flexible cable conduit from the oven through the opening of the cabinet.
- Remove the junction box cover, if present.
- Install a UL-listed or CSA-approved conduit connector to the junction box.
- Route the flexible cable conduit from the oven to the junction box through a UL-listed or CSA-
approved conduit connector.
- Tighten the screws on the conduit connector.
- Refer to pictures 1 and 2 below, which represent the most common way of making the electrical
connection.
IMPORTANT: Any local codes and ordinances should be given priority over these instructions.
NOTE: Concerning grounding of the oven frame through the neutral wire. If a new installation conforming
to 1996 NEC or if local codes do not permit grounding through the neutral wire, separate the neutral and
ground wires that extend out of the oven cable and connect the ground wire to the grounding system in
the standard manner. Connect the neutral wire or lead to the power supply’s neutral cable:
- Separate the ground and neutral wires at the free end of the oven cable.
- Connect the grounding lead or wire to grounding system, and
- Connect the neutral lead or wire to the neutral from the power supply in the standard manner (see
pic. 2 below)
