Electrical Requirements
120wolt, 60 Helqtz, properly grounded branch drcuit
protected by a 15-amp or 20-amp circuit breaker or time
del W fl/se.
Extension Cord Cautions
Because of potential safbtv hazaids assodated with cel_ain
conditions, we strongly recommend against tile use of
an extension cord. Howevex; if you still elect to use an
extension cox<l, it is absolutely necessary that it be a
UIAisted, 3-wire grotmding-type appliance extension
cmd and that tile current carrying rating (ff tile cord in
amperes be equivalent to, or greater than, tile branch
drcuit rating.
Grounding
IMPORTANT_(Please read carefully)
FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE MUST
BE PROPERLY GROUNDED.
Preferred Method
E_lsureproperground
existsbeforeuse
Tile power cord of this appliance is equipped with a
3-prong (gIotmding) plug which mates with a standard
three-prong grotmding wall receptacle to mininfize the
possibility ot electric shock ha/ard fl'om this appliance.
The customer should have the wall receptacle and drcuit
checked by a qualified electridan to make sure the
receptacle is properly grotmded.
Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is
encountered, it is the pel_onal responsibility and
obligation of the customer to have it replaced with
a properly grotmded three-prong wall receptacle.
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT OR
RFMOVE THE THIRD (GROUND} PRONG FROM
THE POWER CORD.
A word about GFCI's - GFCI's are not required or
recommended for gas raaage receptacles,
Grotmd Emit Circuit ]nterluptel_ (GF(]'s) are devices
that sense leakage cff cmTent in a circuit and automatically
switch off power when a threshold leakage le\vl is
detected. These devices must be manually reset by tile
consumel; The National Electrical Code requires the
use oI GFCI's in ldtchen receptacles installed to serve
countellop suYIi_ces. Pe_fimnance of the range will not
be aflbcted iI operated on a GFCl-protected circuit
but occasional nuisance tripping of the GFCI breaker
is possible.

A. Usage Situations where Applimlce Power Cord will be
Discommcted Infrequently,
An adapter Inav be used only on a 15-amp circuit. Do not
use an adapter on a 20-amp drcuit. _4qmi'e local codes
pemfit, a TEMPORARY CONNECTION Inav be inade
to a properly grotmded two-prong wall receptacle by the
rise ofa UiAismd adaptei; a\_filable at inost hardware
stores. The lalger slot in the adapter Inust be aligned
with the larger slot in the wall receptacle to provide
proper polafi V in the COlmection of the power cord.
Temporary Method
(Adapterplugsnotpermittedin Canada)
Align large prongs/slots
Ensure proper ground
and firm connection
before use
CAUTION: Atta,hi.gtheadapter ground
tennilml to the wall receptacle cover screw does not
gmtmd the appliance Ulfless the cover screw is inetal,
and not insulated, and the wall receptacle is grounded
through the house wiring. The custolner should have
the circuit checked by a qualified electrician to Inake
sure the receptacle is properly groul_ded.
X,_q_en disconnecting the power cord fl'om the adapte_;
always hold the adapter with one hand. If this is not
done, the adapter ground tennilml is very likely to break
with repeated use. Should this happen, DO NOT USE
the appliance tmtil a proper grotmd has again been
established.
