IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
• Be sure your wall oven is installed and grounded
properly by a qualified installer or service
technician.
• This wall oven must be electrically grounded in
accordance with local codes or, in their absence,
with the National Electrical Code CSA Standard
C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1, in Canada.
Stepping, leaning or sitting on the
door of this wall oven can result in serious injuries
and can also cause damage to the wall oven.
• Never use your wall oven for warming or heating
the room. Prolonged use of the wall oven without
adequate ventilation can be dangerous.
The electrical power to the oven must
be shut off while line connections are being made.
Failure to do so could result in serious injury or
death.
1. Carpentry
Refer to figure 1 or 2 for the dimensions applicable to
your appliance, and the space necessary to receive the
oven. The oven support surface may be solid plywood or
similar material, however the surface must be level from
side to side and from front to rear.
2. Electrical Requirements
This appliance must be supplied with the proper voltage
and frequency, and connected to an individual, properly
grounded branch circuit, protected by a circuit breaker or
fuse, having amperage as noted on the rating plate (the
rating plate is located on the side trim.
Observe all governing codes and local ordinances
1. A 3-wire or 4-wire single phase 120/240 or 120/208
Volt, 60 Hz AC only electrical supply is required on
a separate circuit fused on both sides of the line
(time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended).
DO NOT fuse neutral. The fuse size must not exceed
the circuit rating of the appliance specified on the
nameplate. Only certain cooktop models may be
installed over certain built-in electric oven models.
Approved cooktops and built-in ovens are listed by
the MFG ID number (see the insert sheet included in
the literature package).
2. The single wall oven can consume up to 4000W at
240Vac; use a circuit breaker of 30 Amp with wire
gauge #8 AWG. The double wall oven can consume
up to 8000W at 240Vac; use a circuit breaker of 40
Amp with wire gauge #8 AWG.
NOTE: Wire sizes and connections must conform with
the fuse size and rating of the appliance in accordance
with the American National Electrical Code CSA
Standard C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1, and
local codes and ordinances.
An extension cord should not be used
with this appliance. Such use may result in a fire,
electrical shock, or other personal injury. If you need
a longer power cord you can order for purchase a 10'
(3 m) power cord kit #903056-9010 by calling the Sears
Service Center.
3. These appliances should be connected to the fused
disconnect (or circuit breaker) box through flexible
armored or nonmetallic sheathed cable. The flexible
armored cable extending from the appliance should
be connected directly to the junction box. The
junction box should be located as shown in Figure 1
or Figure 2 and with as much slack as possible
remaining in the cable between the box and the
appliance, so it can be moved if servicing is ever
necessary.
4. A suitable strain relief must be provided to attach
the flexible armored cable to the junction box.
Electrical Shock Hazard
• Electrical ground is required on this appliance.
• Do not connect to the electrical supply until
appliance is permanently grounded.
• Disconnect power to the junction box before
making the electrical connection.
• This appliance must be connected to a
grounded, metallic, permanent wiring system,
or a grounding connector should be connected
to the grounding terminal or wire lead on the
appliance.
• Do not use a gas supply line for grounding the
appliance.
Failure to do any of the above could result in a
fire, personal injury or electrical shock.
