Before You Install
Installation Requirements
Consider Description
Location
This range can be installed flush against right and left base cabinets, and rear
vertical wall. Range can also be installed flush against left or right vertical wall
extending above 36" standard countertop height.
Use dimensions shown in this manual to determine space needed for
installation.
Range must not be installed or stored in an area where it will be exposed to
water and/or weather. Range is heavy and must not be installed on soft flooring
such as cushioned vinyl or carpeting. If this type of flooring is present where the
range will sit, ¼" thick sheet of plywood or similar material should be placed
where the range will be installed.
Irregular Cabinet and Countertop Heights
Countertops such as ceramic tile tops cause cabinet and countertop to be higher
than 36". Follow instructions below when countertop is higher than 36".
1. Raise leveling legs to maximum height.
2. Measure from floor to rangetop. If the height of the range is less than height
of countertop, floor must be shimmed.
3. Shim floor using a piece of plywood same size as range opening. Secure
plywood to floor. Plywood must be as secure as original flooring.
4. Install anti-tip bracket and slide range into place.
Electrical Requirements
Electrical Supply
Range needs a 3 or 4 wire 240 Volt AC, 40 amp, 60 Hertz, 1 Phase electrical
supply. Wiring system and grounding must conform with the latest edition of the
National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, or the Canadian Electrical Code, CSA
C22.1. Installation must conform to all local, municipal and state building codes,
and local utility regulations. Connect range to power supply with MAXIMUM
RATED VOLTAGE listed on the rating plate. Line voltage must not exceed rated
voltage.
Copper Wire
Terminal block is approved for copper wire connection only. If aluminum house
wiring is to be connected to the cooktop, use only connectors designed for
joining copper to aluminum and follow the manufacturer’s recommended
procedure closely. The following procedure is suggested:
1. Connect length of copper building wire to range terminal block with ring
terminals.
2. Splice copper wires to aluminum wiring using connectors that are design
certified by Underwriter’s Laboratories and recognized for joining copper to
aluminum. Follow the connector manufacturer’s recommended procedure.
3. Wire used, location and enclosure of splices must conform to local codes.
Power Cord
Power cord is not supplied with range. Power cord must be U.L. or C.S.A. listed
and meet NEC and Mobile Home Manufacturers Association Standards. Cord
must be rated at a minimum 250V—40 AMP, equipped with a plug configuration
in accordance with NEMA. Conductors must end with closed loop (ring)
terminals at the range.
• Three-conductor cord plug NEMA 10-50P allowed for residential in U.S.
• Four-conductor cord plug NEMA 14-50P required in Canada and for most
mobile home installations, but can be used for residential.
NOTE: Only a power cord suitable for use with ranges may be used.
For installation in a mobile home, or area where local codes (Canada)
do not permit grounding through the neutral terminal, a 4-wire cord
must be used.
