Electrical Requirements  
Remove the wire cover (on the back of the  
range) by removing 5 screws using a 1/4nut  
driver. Do not discard these screws.  
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 specified on the rating plate. The  
rating plate is located above the storage drawer  
on the oven frame.  
5 Screws to  
remove  
wire cover  
We recommend you have the electrical wiring  
and hookup of your range connected by a  
qualified electrician. After installation, have the  
electrician show you where your main range  
disconnect is located.  
WIRE  
COVER  
STRAIN  
RELIEF  
Check with your local utilities for electrical codes  
which apply in your area. Failure to wire your  
oven according to governing codes could result in  
a hazardous condition. If there are no local  
codes, your range must be wired and fused to  
meet the requirements of the National Electrical  
Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-Latest Edition. You can  
get a copy by writing:  
When reinstalling the one-piece wire  
cover, make sure that wires do not  
become pinched between wire cover  
and mainback.

Quincy, MA 02269  
Effective January 1, 1996, the National Electrical  
Code requires that new, but not existing,  
construction utilize a 4 conductor connection to  
an electric range. When installing an electric  
range in new construction, follow the instructions  
in the section on NEW CONSTRUCTION AND  
FOUR CONDUCTOR BRANCH CIRCUIT  
CONNECTION.  
You must use a three-wire, single-phase A.C.  
208Y/120 Volt or 240/120 Volt, 60 hertz electrical  
system. If you connect to aluminum wiring,  
properly installed connectors approved for use  
with aluminum wiring must be used.  
grounding through neutral.  
These will require a four-wire flexible cord kit. If  
the range is rated between 8,750 and 16,500  
watts, the cord kit must be rated for 40 amps-  
125/250 volts. If the range is rated between  
16,501 and 22,500 watts, the cord kit must be  
rated for 50 amps-125/250 volts. For existing  
construction, a three wire flexible cord kit may  
be used, and the same ratings apply as de-  
scribed above.  
When using a cord kit rated 40 Amps, remove  
the knockout in the connection plate. You  
must use a clamp or strain relief to hold the  
cord.  
Terminations must be either closed loop  
terminals or open end spade lugs.  
On some models, a filter capacitor may be  
connected between the black and white leads  
on the junction block.

The anti-tip bracket, provided with your literature  
and broiler pan, must be properly installed to  
prevent the range from tipping. Please refer to  
the instructions provided with your anti-tip  
bracket.  
INSTALLATIONWOOD CONSTRUCTION  
a. Locate the centers of the four holes identified  
in Fig. 1 as Floor-Wood and Wall.  
b. Drill a 1/8" pilot hole through the pre-marked  
areas. Note the angle of the wall screw in  
Fig. 2.  
a. Decide whether the bracket will be  
installed on the right or left side of range  
location.  
c. Mount the Anti-Tip bracket with the four  
screws provided.  
b. If the bracket side of the range has an  
adjacent cabinet, place the bracket  
against the back wall and cabinet as  
shown in Fig. 1. If there is a countertop  
overhang, offset the bracket by the  
amount of overhang. If there is no  
adjacent cabinet, place the bracket to the  
outside edge of the range side panel and  
back wall.

Final Check List  
E
Check to make sure the circuit breaker is closed (Reset) or the circuit fuses are replaced.  
Be sure power is in service to the building.  
Check to be sure that all packing materials and tape on metal panel (if applicable) under  
control knobs have been removed.  
Operation Check List  
F
Check to make sure the Clock display is energized. If a series of horizontal red lines appear  
in the display, disconnect power immediately. Recheck the range wiring connections. If  
change is made to connections, retest again. If no change is required, have building wiring  
checked for proper connections and voltage. It is recommended that the clock be changed if  
the red lines appear.  
Push in and turn any one of the four surface knobs to MEDsetting to observe that the  
element glows within 60 seconds. Turn the knob off when glow is detected. If the glow is not  
detected within the time limit, recheck the range wiring connections. If change is required,  
retest again. If no change is required, have building wiring checked for proper connections  
and voltage.
