?of the cooking plafform and the

-bottom of an unprotected wood or metal cabinet.

Mobile home installation

The installation of this range must conform to the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards, Title 24 CFR, 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 Homes Installations (Manufactured Home Sites, Communities and Setups),

ANSI A225 1/NFPA 501A, or with local codes*.

Note: When this range is installed in a recreational vehicle (RV), it must be secured to the floor. The range installed in a mobile home must be secured to the floor during transit.

Four-wire power supply cord must be

used in a mobile home installation. The appliance wiring will need to be revised. See ???Electrical requirements.???

Electrical Shock Hazard It is the customer???s responsibility:

l To contact a qualified electrical installer.

Do Not seal the

side cabinets.

l To assure that electrical installation is adequate and in conformance with National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 - latest edition*, and all local codes and ordinances.

Failure to do so could result in fire, electrical shock or other personal injury.

Two anti-tip brackets MUST be installed.

For detailed instructions, see Panel B and Panel C.

Personal Injury Hazard

To eliminate the risk of burns or fire, avoid installing cabinet storage above the cooking surface. If cabinets are already installed, reduce the hazard of reaching over a heated cooking

surface by installing a range hood.

The range hood should extend a minimum of 5 inches out from the bottom of the cabinets.

Reaching over a heated cooking surface could result in a serious burn.

Tools needed for installation:

screwdriver

for installation:

screws

Electrical requirements

Save Installation Instructions for the local electrical inspector???s use.

Power supply cord is not supplied but is available throu h your local electrical supply a ouses.

Electrical Shock Hazard

l Electrical ground is required on this appliance.

l Do Not ground to a gas supply pipe.

l Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

l Only a power supply cord kit rated at 250 volts, 40 amperes and

investigated for use with ranges should be used.

l Do Not use an extension cord with this appliance. Such use may result in a fire, electrical shock or other personal injury.

n Do Not have a fuse in the neutral or grounding circuit. A fuse in the neutral or grounding circuit could result in electrical shock.

b Do Not plug the ???pigtail??? power cord into a live wall receptacle before the cord is permanently connected to the terminal block. To do so may result in personal injury from electrical shock.

:ailure to follow these instructions could esult in serious injury or death.

If codes permit.~and a separate grounding wire is used, it is recommended that a qualified electrician determine that the grounding path is adequate.

A n A three-wire or four-wire sinale phase 120/240-volt, 60.Hz, AC only ??? electrical supply (or three-wire or four- wire 120/208-volt if specified on serial plate) is required on a separate 40 ampere circuit, fused on both sides of the line. Do Not fuse the neutral. A time-delay or circuit breaker is recommended.

B n All wires ending at the appliance must terminate in ring-type terminals,

C n Local codes may permit the use of flexible type 40-ampere U.L.-listed power supply cord (pigtail) with no smaller than No. 8 copper wire to match three-wire receptacle of NEMA-type lo-50R as shown in Figure 1. A U.L.-listed strain relief must be provided at the point the power supply cord enters the appliance.

D n The range may be connected directly to the fised disconnect (or circuit breaker) box through flexible armored or non-metallic, sheathed copper cable. Allow at least 3 feet minimum of slack in the line between the wall and the appliance so that it can be moved if servicing is ever necessary A suitable strain relief must be provided at each

end of the copper power supply cord (at the appliance and at the junction box). Wire sizes (COPPER WIRE ONLY) and connections must conform with the rating of the appliance (40 amperes).

E n lhe range must be connected with copper wire only.

Fn FOR MOBILE HOME USE,A 4-WIRE POWER CORD MUSTBE USED.This appliance is manufactured with ground connected to cabinet. The ground must be revised so the green grounding wire of the 4-wire power cord is connected to the cabinet. See 4-wire electrical connection section, Panel C.

If using a 4-wire NEMA type 14-50R receptacle, a matching 4-wire U.L.-listed ???pigtail??? power cord must be used. Cord should be type SRDor SRDT,at least

4 feet long and have all conductors

ending in ring terminals at the range. See Figure 2. The MINIMUM conductor sizes for the copper 4-wire power cord are:

40 ampere circuit 2, No. 8 conductors

1, No. 10 white neutral 1, No. 8 green grounding

Gn A wiring diagram is included in literature package. The wiring diagram is also located on the back of the range.

Use only rinY-type terminals to

connect the power supply. To secure the power supply cord, use the 3/8??? brass nuts taped to cabinet below the terminal block.

This appliance is manufactured with the neutral terminal connected to

the cabinet. If local codes and ordinances Do Not permit grounding through the neutral, a four-wire power supply cord, rated 250 volts, 40 amperes and investigated for use with ranges must be used. See 4-wire electrical

connection, Panel C.

11 n Connect grounding wire (green) of copper power supply cord to range with grounding screw using hole in cabinet where grounding strap was removed in Step 9.

12 n Connect the neutral (white) wire to the silver-colored terminal screw on the terminal block. Connect the other two wires to the outer terminal screws on the terminal block. Use ring-type terminals only. Check that nuts are tight to insure proper electrical connection.

13 n Tighten the strain relief screws. Replace terminal block cover.

To reduce the risk of tipping of the appliance, the appliance must be secured by properly installed anti-tip brackets supplied with the range.

Save these installation instructions. If range is moved to a new location,

the anti-tip brackets must be removed and reinstalled in the new location.

Follow instructions for the type of installation you have.
