We recommend that you have the electrical hookup of your range done by a qualified
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 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
find the rating plate. On built-in wall ovens and glass top ranges, the plate can be found in
the storage compartment. Open the storage door panel to find 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 qualified 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.
