SAFETY
PREPARE TO INSTALL THE RANGE
WARNING
• The information in this manual
TOOLS NEEDED
should be followed exactly.
- A fire or electrical shock may result causing
property damage, perasonal injury or death.
WARNING
• DO NOT step or sit on oven
door. Install the Anti-Tip
Bracket supplied with the
range.
- The range could be tipped and
injury might result from spilled hot
liquid, food, or the range itself.
PARTS PROVIDED
- If the range is pulled away from the
wall for cleaning, service, or any
other reason, ensure that the Anti-
Tip Device is properly reengaged
when the range is pushed back
against the wall.
NOTE
• Read all instructions contained in these installation
instructions before installing range.
• Remove all packing materials from the oven
compartments before connecting the electrical
supply to the range.
(For Anti-Tip Bracket Mounted
on Concrete Floors and Walls)
PARTS NOT PROVIDED
• Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
•
Be sure to leave these instructions with the consumer.
NOTE
Keep these instructions with your owner’s manual for
future reference.
• As when using any appliance generating heat, there
are certain safety precautions you should follow.
• Be sure your range is installed and grounded
properly by a qualified installer or service technician.
• Make sure the wall coverings around the range can
withstand the heat generated by the range.
• To eliminate the need to reach over the surface
elements, cabinet storage space above the elements
should be avoided.

NOTE
SAVE FOR THE USE OF THE LOCAL ELECTRICAL INSPECTOR.
CLEARANCES AND DIMENSIONS (Figure 1)
To install range refer to the following Figure 1.
For installation in CANADA, a Free-standing range is not to be installed closer than 15/32 (12mm) from any
adjacent surface.
CAUTION
CAUTION
• Make sure that the wall covering,
countertop and cabinets around the
range can withstand the heat (up to
194°F) generated by the range.
- Discoloration, delamination or melting may occur.
- This range has been designed to comply with the
maximum allowable wood cabinet temperatures
of 194°F.
• Cabinet storage space located above
the surface units should be avoided.
• Install a range hood that projects
horizontally a minimum of 5 inches
beyond the bottom of the cabinets If
cabinet storage is to be provided.
- The risk of burns or fire by reaching over the
heated surface elements can be reduced.

CONNECT RANGE CORD
The Rear Access cover must be removed. Loosen the
three screws with a screwdriver. The terminal block
will then be accessible.
This appliance must be installed and grounded on a
branch circuit by a qualified technician in accordance
with the National Electrical code ANSI/NFPA NO. 70 -
latest edition.
All wiring should conform to Local and NEC. This
range requires a single-phase, 3 wire, A.C 120/208V or
120/240V 60Hz electrical system. Use only a 3-conductor
or a 4-conductor UL-listed range cord with closed-
loop terminals, open-end spade lugs with upturned
ends or similar terminations. DO NOT install the
power cord without a strain relief.
FIGURE 4
A range cord rated at 40 amps with 120/240 minimum
volt range is required. If a 50 amp range cord is used,
it should be marked for use with 13⁄8” diameter
connection openings.
The Cord/Conduit connection plate is used for the
installation of power cord or conduit. For power cord,
install it with the connection plate as INSTALLED. For
conduit, remove the connection plate located below
the rear of the drawer body and use the conduit hole
(1 / ”) instead of power cord hole (1 / ”).
(Refer to Figure 5 and 6.)
This appliance may be connected by means of conduit
or power cord. If conduit is being used, go to page 7
3 wire conduit connections or page 8 for 4 wire
conduit connections.

WARNING
• New branch-circuit installations (1996 NEC)
for mobile homes, recreational vehicles,
and installations where local codes do not
allow grounding through the neutral wire
require a 4-conductor UL listed range cord
or 4 wire conduit connection.
Remove the Conduit connection plate

WARNING
• The middle (neutral or ground) wire of a 3
wire power cord or a 3 wire conduit has to
be connected to the middle post of the
main terminal block. The remaining two
wires of the power cord or conduit have to
be connected to the outside posts of the
main terminal connection block.
- Failure to do so can result in electrical shock, severe
personal injury or death.

range.
- The range could be tipped and
injury might result from spilled hot
liquid, food, or the range itself.
6 FINAL INSTALLATION
• Move range close enough to the opening to plug
into the receptacle.
- If the range is pulled away from the
wall for cleaning, service, or any
other reason, ensure that the Anti-
Tip Device is properly reengaged
when the range is pushed back
against the wall.
• Slide range into position insuring that the left back
leg slides under the anti-tip bracket. Range will sit 0”
away from the back wall when properly installed.
• Carefully tip range forward to insure that the anti-tip
bracket engages the range back brace and prevents
tip-over.
• Turn on electrical power. Check range for proper
operation as described in owner’s manual.
1. Locate the bracket using the template
An Anti-tip bracket is packaged with template. The
instructions include necessary information to
complete the installation.
Read and follow range installation instruction sheet
(template).
2. Level the range
Level the range by adjusting the leveling legs with a
wrench.
