It is important that the oven be installed at or above the

runners on 11• centers. The solid bottom or two runners
should be even with the bottom edge of the cutout opening.

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
fuse having amperage as noted on rating plate. (Rating
plate is located on oven frame.)
We recommend you have the electrical wiring and hookup
of your oven done by a qualified electrician. After installation,
have the electrician show you where your main range
disconnect is located.
Check with your local utilities for electrical codes which
apply in your area. Failure to wire your range according to
governing codes could result in a hazardous condition, ff
there are no local codes, your range must be wired and
fused to meet the requirements of the National Electrical
Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-Latest Edition. You can get a
