CORD CONNECTED APPLIANCES
We recommend that you have the electrical hookup of your range done by a qualied
electrician. Have the electrician show you where your range disconnect is located. If you
fail to wire your range in accordance with governing codes, you may create a hazardous
condition.
Refer to the range’s rating plate for electrical requirements. The rating plate is located in
the burner box area on freestanding ranges and cook tops. Lift up the front edge of the
main top to nd the rating plate. On built-in wall ovens, the plate can be found in the
storage compartment. Open the storage door panel to nd the rating plate.

You must use a three-wire, single-phase AC 208/240 Volt, 60 Hertz electrical system to
operate your range. Use #8 wire and 40 Amp fuse or circuit breaker for 240 Volt and 208
Volt systems.
For ranges equipped with a terminal block, use only a 3-conductor or 4-conductor UL
listed 40 Amp 125/250 minimum volt electric range power cord. The cord must have open
end spade lugs with upturned ends or closed loop terminals. An appropriate strain relief
bracket must be provided on the power cord. Power cord strain relief must be used.
It is strongly suggested that your electric range be connected by means of a cord utilizing
copper conductors. Copper has always proven itself to be the most dependable
conductor. However, many homes may be wired to connect to a range by means of
aluminum wiring. This is not an ideal situation, and we urge you to have a qualied
electrician change to a copper cord connection. If this is not possible, bare wire
connections can be made with the terminal adaptor kit packed in with the range.
ADAPTOR CONNECTION Use for bare wire connection through electrical conduit.
