It is the personal responsibility of the customer to contact a
qualified technician to assure that the electrical installation is
adequate and is in conformance with the National Electrical Code
ANSVNPFA 70- latest edition and local codes and ordinances.
THE RANGE MUST BE CONNECTED WITH COPPER WIRE

rated at 125/250 volts minimum, 40 amperes, and marked for use
with ranges. Cord must have three (3) conductors.
For mobile home installation or in areas where local codes do not

marked for use with ranges shall be used.
Terminals on end of wires must be either closed loop or open-end
spade lugs with upturned ends. Cord must have strain relief

STEP 2
GENERAL
The back of a Free Standing Range may be Installed against
a vertical wall. The sides may be installed against base
cabinets or against vertical walls extending above the upper
edge of the cook top.
To prevent possible discoloration of the base cabinets,
the front of the oven frame must extend at least l/z” past the
front surface or cabinet doors of the base cabinets.
To eliminate the hazard of reaching over heated surface
elements, cabinets or storage spaces should not be provided
over a range.
If cabinets are provided, the hazard can be reduced by
installing a range hood that projects horizontally a
minlmum of 5 inches beyond the bottom of the cabinets.
CAUTION:
30 inches minimum clearance between the top
of the cooking surface and the bottom of an unprotected wood
or metal cabinet. 24 inches minimum when bottom of wood
or metal cabinet is protected by not less than %-inch-thick
flame-retardant millboard covered with not less than No. 28
MSG sheet steel, 0.015-inch-thick stamless steel, 0.024-inch-
thick aluminum, or 0.020-inch-thick copper.
When installing the range between basecabinets, refer
to
Figure 1
for the size of the opening needed. Do Not
seal range to cabinets.
CAUTION:
When unpacking the range, do not discard the 4
shipping bolts as these are the leveling legs.
If a service cord is used, the wall receptacle should be
located in accordance with the dimensions given in
Figurel.
