ELECTRICAL WIRING WARNING ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD • An electrical ground is required on this appliance. • Do not connect to the electrical supply until the appliance is permanently grounded. • Turn off power to the junction box before making the electrical connections. • Connect the appliance to a grounded, metallic, permanent wiring system. Failure to follow these instructions could result in death or serious injury. 1. Insert the end of the flexible conduit through the cabinet opening to the junction box inlet. 2. Disconnect the power going to the junction box. 3. Open the junction box cover and connect the flexible conduit to the U.L.-listed conduit connector. 4. Connect the ends of the black wires together with twist-on connectors (see the illustration below). 5. Connect the ends of the red wires together with twist-on connectors. cable from power supply junction box red wires black wires white wire white & bare grounding appliance wires factory crimped cable from oven U.L.-listed conduit connector Crimped Grounding Conductors To White (Neutral) Wire If local codes DO permit connecting the cabinet-grounding conductor to a neutral junction box wire, perform steps 6 and 7. If local codes DO NOT permit connecting the cabinet-grounding conductor to a neutral junction box wire, or if you are connecting the appliance to a 4-wire electrical system, perform steps 8 through 11. 6. Connect the factory-crimped bare and white electrical wires coming from the appliance conduit cable to the white (neutral) wire inside the junction box (see the illustration below). 7. Replace the junction box cover. 8. Separate the factory-crimped bare and white electrical wires coming from the appliance conduit cable. 9. Connect the white appliance wire to the white (neutral) wire inside the junction box. 10. Connect the bare grounding wire from the appliance to a grounded wire inside the junction box. IMPORTANT: Do not connect the bare grounding wire to the white (neutral) wire in the junction box. 11.

1.
Insert the end of the flexible conduit through
the cabinet opening to the junction box
inlet.
2.
Disconnect the power going to the junc-
tion box.
3.
Open the junction box cover and connect
the flexible conduit to the U.L.-listed con-
duit connector.
4.
Connect the ends of the black wires to-
gether with twist-on connectors (see the

with twist-on connectors.
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
•
An electrical ground is required on this
appliance.
•
Do not connect to the electrical supply
until the appliance is permanently
grounded.
•
Turn off power to the junction box before
making the electrical connections.
• Connect the appliance to a grounded,
metallic, permanent wiring system.
Failure to follow these instructions could
result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
If local codes DO permit
connecting the cabi-
net-grounding conductor to a neutral junction
box wire, perform steps 6 and 7.
If local codes DO NOT permit
connecting the
cabinet-grounding conductor to a neutral junc-
tion box wire, or if you are connecting the
appliance to a 4-wire electrical system, per-
form steps 8 through 11.
6.
Connect the factory-crimped bare and
white electrical wires coming from the
appliance conduit cable to the white (neu-
tral) wire inside the junction box (see the
illustration below).
7.
Replace the junction box cover.
8.
Separate the factory-crimped bare and
white electrical wires coming from the
appliance conduit cable.
9.
Connect the white appliance wire to the
white (neutral) wire inside the junction
box.
10.
Connect the bare grounding wire from the
appliance to a grounded wire inside the
junction box.
IMPORTANT: Do not con-
nect the bare grounding wire to the
white (neutral) wire in the junction box.
11.
Replace the junction box cover.
