INSTALLATION MANUAL IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS If the information in this manual is not followed exactly, a fire or electrical shock may result causing property damage, personal injury or death. • ALL RANGES CAN TIP • INJURY TO PERSONS COULD RESULT • INSTALL ANTI-TIP BRACKET PACKED WITH RANGE • SEE ANTI-TIP BRACKET TEMPLATE FOR INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS • Never use the range for warming or heating the room. Prolonged use of the range without adequate ventilation can be dangerous. • Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids near this or any other range. Explosions or fires could result. • Reset all controls to the "off" position after using a programmable timing operation. WHEN USING THE SELF-CLEAN FEATURE: • Remove broiler pan, food and other utensils before self-cleaning the oven. Wipe up excess spillage. Follow the precleaning instructions in the Operation Manual. ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS To reduce the risk of tipping the range, it must be secured by properly installed Anti-Tip bracket packed with the range. • This range must be electronically grounded in accordance with local codes, or in their absence, with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70-latest edition in United States. • The installation of ranges designed for manufactured (mobile) home installation must conform with Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standard, title 24CFR, part 3280 [Formerly the Federal Standard for Mobile Home Construction and Safety, title 24, HUD (part 280)] or when such standard is not applicable, the Standard for Manufactured Home Installation 1982 (Manufactured Home Sites, Communities and Setups), ANSI Z225. 1/NFPA 501A- latest edition, or with local codes in United States. • Make sure the wall coverings and the cabinets around the range can withstand the heat generated by the range. • Before installing the range in an area covered with linoleum or any other synthetic floor covering, make sure the floor covering can withstand heat at least 90˚F (32.2˚C) above room temperature without shrinking, warping or discoloring. Do not install the range over carpeting unless you place an insulating pad or sheet of 1/4-inch (0.64cm) thick plywood between the range and carpeting. Never leave children alone or unattended in the area where an range is in use. As children grow, teach them the proper, safe use of all ranges. Never leave the oven door open when the range is unattended. Stepping, leaning or sitting on the door or drawer of this range can result in serious injuries and can also cause damage to the range. • Do not store items of interest to children in the cabinets above the range. Children could be seriously burned climbing on the range to reach items. • To eliminate the need to reach over the cooktop, cabinet storage space above the cooktop should be avoided. • Do not use the oven as a storage space. This creates a potentially hazardous situation. The installer or consumer is responsible for connecting the power supply cord to the connection block located behind the back panel access cover. This range may be connected by means of permanent "hard wiring" (flexible armored or nonmetallic shielded copper or aluminum cable), or by means of a power supply cord kit. Only a power supply cord kit rated at 240 volts or 208 volts and 50 amperes and marked for use with ranges shall be used. Cord must have either 3 or 4 conductors to match electric receptacle. For mobile homes, new installations, recreational vehicles or areas where local codes do not permit grounding through neutral, a 4 conductor power supply cord kit rated at 240 volts or 208 volts minimum, 50 amperes and marked for use with ranges should be used. Terminals on end of wires must be either closed loop or open-end spade lugs with upturned ends. Cord must have strain-relief clamp. The range connection opening should be 1 3/8-inches. Risk of fire or electrical shock exists if an incorrect size range cord kit is used or the Installation Manual or strain relief clamp are disregarded. CAUTION Do not loosen the nuts which secure the factoryinstalled range wiring to the terminal block while connecting range. Electrical failure or loss of electrical connection may occur. ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD • Electrical ground is required on this range. • Do not connect to the electrical supply until range is permanently grounded. • DISCONNECT POWER TO THE CIRCUIT BREAKER OR FUSE BOX BEFORE MAKING THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION. • This range must be connected to a grounded, metallic, permanent wiring system or the grounding connector of the power cord should be connected to the grounding terminal or wire lead on the range. • Failure to heed these warnings could result in a fire, personal injury or electrical shock. 3
