We recommend
you have the electrical wiring and
hookup of your range connected
by a qualified
electrician.
After installation,
have the electrician
show you where your main range disconnect
is
located.
Check with your local utilities for electrical
codes
which apply in your area. Failure to wire your oven
according
to governing
codes could result in a
hazardous
condition.
If there are no local codes,
your range must be wired and fused to meet the
requirements
of the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA No. 70-- Latest Edition. You can get

Electricol
Code requires thot new construction
(not existing)
utilize o 4-conductor
connection
to on electric
ronge.
When installing
an electric
range in new
construction,
follow
Steps 3 and 5 for 4-wire
connection.
You must use a 3-wire, single-phase
A.C. 208Y/120
Volt or 240/120 Volt, 60 hertz electrical
system. If
you connect to aluminum
wiring, properlg installed
connectors
approved
for use with aluminum
wiring
must be used.
If the electrical
service provided does not meet the
above specifications,
have a licensed electrician
install an approved
outlet.
ALL NEW CONSTRUCTIONS,
MOBILE HOMES AND
INSTALLATIONS WHERE LOCAL
CODES DO NOT ALLOW
GROUNDING THROUGH
NEUTRAL
Use only a 3-conductor
or a 4-conductor
UL-listed
range cord. These cords may be provided with ring
terminals
on wire and a strain relief device.
A range cord rated at/40 amps with 125/250
minimum
volt range is required. A 50 amp range
cord is not recommended
but if used, it should
be marked for use with nominal lYs" diameter
connection
openings. Care should be taken to
center the cable and strain relief within the
knockout
hole to keep the edge from damaging
the cable.
• Because range terminals
are not accessible after
range is in position, flexible service conduit or
cord must be used.
NOTE: If conduit is being used, go to Step 3D and
then to Step 6 or 7.
• On some models, a filter capacitor
may be
connected
between the black and white leads on
the junction
block.
