WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Electrically ground appliance.
Failure to do so could result in death, fire, or electrical
shock.
If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is
recommended that a qualified electrical installer determine that
the ground path and wire gauge are in accordance with local
codes.
Do not use an extension cord.
Be sure that the electrical connection and wire size are adequate
and in conformance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA
70-latest edition and all local codes and ordinances.
A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:
National Fire Protection Association

WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a
qualified electrician or service technician if you are in doubt as to
whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the
power supply cord plug. If it will not fit the outlet, have a proper
outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
Electrical Connection
To properly install your range, you must determine the type of
electrical connection you will be using and follow the instructions
provided for it here.
Range must be connected to the proper electrical voltage and
frequency as specified on the model/serial/rating plate. The
model/serial/rating plate is located on the frame behind a top
corner of the door or either side of the drawer.

corner of the door or either side of the drawer.
This range is manufactured with the neutral terminal
connected to the cabinet. Use a 3-wire, UL listed, 40 or 50 A
power supply cord (pigtail). See the following Range Rating
chart. If local codes do not permit ground through the neutral,
use a 4-wire power supply cord rated at 250 V, 40 or 50 A and
investigated for use with ranges.

A circuit breaker is recommended.
The range can be connected directly to the circuit breaker box
(or fused disconnect) through flexible or nonmetallic sheathed,
copper or aluminum cable. See the “Electrical Connection

Allow 2 to 3 ft (61.0 cm to 91.4 cm) of slack in the line so that
the range can be moved if servicing is ever necessary.
A UL listed conduit connector must be provided at each end of
the power supply cable (at the range and at the junction box).
Wire sizes and connections must conform with the rating of the
range.
The Tech Sheet is located on the back of the range inside a
clear plastic bag.
If connecting to a 4-wire system:
This range is manufactured with the ground connected to the
neutral by a link. The ground must be revised so the green ground
wire of the 4-wire power supply cord is connected to the cabinet.
