30" ELECTRIC REAR CONTROL FREESTANDING INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 3-Wire and 4-Wire Permanent Connection This appliance may be connected by means of permanent wiring. When installing permanent wiring, do not leave excess wire in range compartment. Excess wire in the range compartment may not allow the rear access cover to be replaced properly and could create a potential electrical hazard if wires become pinched. Connect only as instructed. When using flexible conduit or range cable use flex connector or range cable strain relief. 1. Strip insulation away from the ends of the permanent wiring for Line 1, Line 2, Neutral (also strip ground wire on 4-Wire Connections). Tighten all wire leads to the terminal block (Follow wire locations shown in Fig. 16). IMPORTANT NOTE: DO NOT LOOSEN the factory installed nut connections which secure the range wiring to the terminal block. Electrical failure or loss of electrical connection may occur if these nuts are loosened or removed. 2. (4-Wire Permanent Connection ONLY) Disconnect the ground strap. Remove the factory installed ground screw and plate to release the factory installed copper ground strap from frame of the appliance. Cut and discard the copper strap from the terminal block. Keep the ground screw and ground plate. 3. (4-Wire Permanent Connection ONLY) Connect the ground wire lead (Green) to the frame of the appliance using the ground screw & plate as shown in Fig. 17. Be sure to install using the same hole in the frame where the ground screw was originally installed. 4. Follow the manufacturer's installation instructions supplied with the strain relief and install. 5. Make sure all connections are tightened securely and replace the rear access cover. NOTE: Non-terminated field wire compression connections must be set at 22 in./lbs. or greater. Always use 10 gauge wire or larger.
