A WARNING:
This appliance must be properly grounded.
J_, WAR
NIN G: 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.
A WARN IN G:
To prevent fire or shock, do not use an extension cord with this appliance.
_1_WARN
IN G:
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.

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 S-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 oven frame or on the side of the drawer frame.

ANTI-TIP
DEVICE INSTALLATION
Ti
-Over
Hazard
• A child or adult ca n tip the range and be killed.
• Install the anti-tip bracket to the wall or floor.
• Engage the ra nge to the anti-tip bracket by sliding the
range back such that the foot is engaged.
• Re-engage the anti-tip bracket if the range is moved.
• Failure to do so can result in death or serious burns
to children or adults.
To reduce the risk of tipping the range, the
range must be secured by a properly installed
anti-tip bracket. See installation instructions
shipped with the bracket for complete details
before attempting to install.
To check if the bracket is installed and
engaged properly, look underneath the range
to see that the rear leveling leg is engaged
in the bracket. On some models, the storage
drawer or kick panel can be removed for
easier inspection. If visual inspection is not
possible, slide the range forward, confirm the anti-tip bracket is securely attached to the floor or wall, and
slide the range back so the leveling leg is under the anti-tip bracket. If the range is pulled from the wall for
any reason, always repeat this procedure to verify the range is properly secured by the anti-tip bracket
Never completely remove the leveling legs or the range will not be secured to the anti-tip bracket.
