5. Electrical Connection Requirements
(Canada only)

6. Electrical Connection Requirements
(United States only)
This appliance must be properly installed and
grounded by a qualified technician in accordance with
the National Electrical Code ANSl/NFPA No. 70--latest
edition--and local electrical code requirements.
This appliance may be connected by means of
permanent "Hard Wiring" or "Power Supply Cord Kit."
When hard wiring, do not leave excess wire in range
compartment. Excess wire in the range compartment
may not allow the access cover to be replaced
properly, and could create a potential electrical hazard
if wires become pinched. When using flexible conduit
or range cable, use flex connector or range cable strain
relief.
NOTE: Only use copper wire in connection to terminal
block.
6.1 Models Requiring Power Supply Cord Kit
U.S. STYLE
3-Wire Cord Kit
The user is responsible for connecting the power
supply cord to the connection block located behind the
back panel access cover.
This appliance may be connected by means of
permanent "hard wiring"; flexible armored or
nonmetallic shielded copper cable (when local code
allow it) or by means of a power supply cord kit.
NOTE: Electric Range is shipped from factory with 11/8"
(2,9 cm) dia. hole as shown on figure 8. If a larger hole
is required, punch out the knockout.
Risk of fire or electrical shock exists
if an incorrect size range cord kit is used, the
Installation Instructions are not followed, or the
strain relief bracket is discarded.
For mobile homes, new installations or recreational
vehicles, use only a power supply kit designed for a range
at 125V/250V 50A recommended (minimum 40A). Cord
must have either 3 (when local code permits grounding
through neutral) or 4 conductors. Terminal on end of
wires must be either closed loop or open spade lug with
upturned ends. Cord must have strain-relief clamp. If a
50A circuit is used, a 50A power cord must be used.
Do not loosen the nuts which secure
the factory-installed range wiring to terminal block
while connecting range. Electrical failure or loss of
electrical connection may occur.
Electrical Shock Hazard
• Electrical ground is required on this appliance.
• Do not connect to the electrical supply until
appliance is permanently grounded.
• Disconnect power to the circuit breaker or fuse
box before making the electrical connection.
• This appliance must be connected to a
grounded, metallic, permanent wiring
system, or a grounding connector should be
connected to the grounding terminal or wire
lead on the appliance.
Failure to do any of the above could result in a
fire, personal injury or electrical shock.
_This appliance is manufactured with
the frame grounded by connection of a grounding
strap between the neutral power supply terminal
and the frame. If used in USA, in a new branch
circuit installation (1996 NEC), mobile home or
recreational vehicule, where local code do not
permit grounding through neutral (white) wire
or in Canada; remove the grounding strap from
the frame and cut the other end, near the neutral
terminal. Connect the appliance in usual manner.
