Samsung NX58K3310SS/AA Installation Guide - Page 17

Installation requirements • Wiring diagram is located on the back of the range. (Inside of the cover back wire) • This range is equipped with an electronic ignition system that will not operate if plugged into an outlet that is not properly polarized. Gas models • All gas models are equipped with a power cord with an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. • A 120-Volt, 60-Hz, AC, approved electrical service with 20-amp circuit breaker or time-delay fuse is required for all U.S. and Canadian models. • Check for ¾-in (1.9-cm) UL-listed strain relief where the power cord comes out of the range cabinet. • Do not reuse a power supply cord from an old range or other appliance. • The power cord electric supply wiring must be retained at the range cabinet with a suitable UL-listed strain relief. • A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is also recommended. Grounding Ensure proper ground and firm connection before use. • All ranges must be grounded for personal safety. • All gas models have a power cord with an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. • Do not, under any circumstances, cut, modify, remove, or otherwise defeat the grounding (third) prong from the power cord. If the plug and the outlet do not match or you have any doubt, have a qualified electrician install the proper outlet. The customer should have the wall receptacle and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the receptacle is properly grounded. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCIs) are not required or recommended for gas range receptacles. • NEVER connect ground wire to plastic plumbing lines, gas lines, or water pipes. CAUTION Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock. Usage situations where appliance power cord will be disconnected frequently Do not use an adapter plug in these situations because disconnecting of the power cord places undue strain on the adapter and leads to eventual failure of the adapter ground terminal. Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to have it replaced with a three-prong (grounding) receptacle by a qualified electrician before using the appliance. • The plug must be firmly plugged into a three-prong outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding will decrease the risk of electrical shock by providing a path for the electric current. • Do not use a damaged power plug or loose wall outlet. • Do not use an extension cord or adapter with this appliance.
