If the house has aluminum wiring, perform
steps 1 through 3, otherwise skip those steps.
1. Connect a section of 8-gauge, solid cop-
per wire to the terminal block.
2. Connect the aluminum wiring to the added
section of copper wire using special con-
nectors that were designed by Underwrit-
ers Laboratories for joining copper to alu
minum. Follow the procedure recom
mended by the manufacturer to connect
the wires.
3. The aluminum-to-copper connections must
conform with local codes and industry
accepted wiring practice.
DIRECT WIRE CONNECTION
WARNING
Turn power supply off before connecting
wires.
Electrically ground range.
Failure to do so can result in death, fire, or
electrical shock.
This range must be connected to a ground-
ed, metallic, permanent wiring system, or a
ground connector should be connected to
the ground terminal, or to the ground wire
lead on the range.
The conductors at the terminal block must
be copper wire only.
Electrical Shock Hazard
4. Disconnect the power supply.
5. Remove the screws from the terminal block
cover.
6. Remove the 3/8″ brass nuts that are at-
tached to the knockout opening and set
them aside. Use these brass nuts to se-
cure the ring-type terminals on the power
supply cord to the terminal block screws.
NOTE: Use only ring-type terminals to connect
the power supply cord.
7. Remove the knockout for the 40- ampere
power supply cord.
8. Mount a U.L.-listed strain relief in the knock-
out opening.

9. Strip 3″ of outer covering from the end of
each wire on the power supply cord.
10. Form a hook in the bare wire ends of the
power supply cord.

1"
11. Insert the power supply cord through the
strain relief, and allow enough slack so
you can easily attach the wiring to the
terminal block.
12. Depending on the type of electrical sys-
tem, proceed to “4-Wire Electrical Con-
nection,” (on page 2-6), or “3-Wire Electri-
cal Connection,” (on page 2-7), and com-
plete the wiring.
