We recommend that the range be installed with a power cord set (not supplied).
The electrical rating of the power cord set must be 120/240 volt, 30 amperes mini-
mum. The power cord set shall be marked "For Use with Ranges." Always use a
new power cord.
Note:
In Canada, the range is shipped from the factory with the range cord
already installed.
Ranges are dual rated for use on either 120/240 VAC or 120/208 VAC. Check the
data plate for the kW rating. Reference the kW rating in the table below to deter-
mine amperage requirements.

Verify that wiring to house is adequate
Contact your local utility company to verify that the present electric service to your
home is adequate. In some instances, the size of the wiring to the house and ser-
vice switch must be increased to handle the electrical load demanded by the
range.
Verify that wiring inside house is adequate
Most wiring codes require a separate circuit with separate disconnect switch and
fuses either in the main entrance panel or in a separate switch and fuse box.
The range requires a minimum of a three wire 120/240 or 120/208 volt, 30 AMP,
60 Hz AC circuit. Check local codes for proper amperage ratings. A four wire con-
nection is preferred.
Most local building regulations and codes require that electrical wiring be done by
licensed electricians. Be sure to install your range according to the electric codes
in place in your region.
