KENMORE ELECTRIC WALL OVEN INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
(and Optional Electric or Gas Cooktop Combination)
If oven is used in a new branch circuit installation
(1996 NEC), mobile home, recreational vehicle, or
where local codes DO NOT permit grounding
through the neutral (white) wire (see figure 4):
1. Disconnect the power supply.
2. Separate the green (or bare copper) and white
appliance cable wires.
3. In the circuit breaker, fuse box or junction box:
connect appliance and power supply cable wires as
shown in Figure 4.
DO NOT ground to a gas supply pipe. DO NOT connect
to electrical power supply until appliance is permanently
grounded. Connect the ground wire before turning on
the power (Figure 4).
If connecting to a 4-wire electrical
system (mobile homes), the appliance frame MUST
NOT be connected to the neutral wire of the 4-wire
electrical system.
NOTE TO ELECTRICIAN: The armored cable leads
supplied with the appliance are UL-recognized for
connection to larger gauge household wiring. The
insulation of the leads is rated at temperatures much
higher than temperature rating of household wiring. The
current carrying capacity of the conductor is governed by
the temperature rating of the insulation around the wire,
rather than the wire gauge alone.
5. Cabinet Installation
The wall oven can tip when the door is
open. The mounting brackets supplied with the
wall oven must be attached to the cabinet and the
appliance to prevent tipping of the wall oven and
injury to persons.
Mounting Brackets Installation Instructions
1. Unpack the wall oven. Remove the bottom trim taped
on the oven side panel. Find the 2 mounting brackets
and screws included in the literature package.
2. Install the mounting brackets in the wall cabinet as
shown on Figure 5. Note: To prevent damage to
cabinet, it is recommended to drill 1/16" (0.16 cm) dia.
pilot holes before installing the mounting brackets.
Heavy Weight Hazard
• Use 2 or more people to move and install wall oven.
• Failure to follow this instruction can result in injury
or damage to the unit.
