30" ELECTRIC DROP-IN RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is manufactured with a white neutral
power supply and a frame connected copper wire.
The frame is grounded by connection of grounding
lead to neutral lead at the termination of the
conduit, if used in USA, in a new branch circuit
installation (1996 NEC), mobile home, recreational
vehicles, where local code do not permit grounding
trough the neutral (white) wire or in Canada,
disconnect the white and green lead from each
other and use ground lead to ground unit in
accordance with local codes, connect neutral lead
to branch circuit-neutral conductor in usual manner
see Figure 4. If your appliance is to be connected
to a 3 wire grounded junction box (US only),
where local code permit connecting the appliance-
grounding conductor to the neutral (white) see
Figure 3.
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.
Where local codes permit connecting the appliance-
grounding conductor to the neutral (white) wire
(US Only) (see figure 1):
1. Disconnect the power supply.
2. In the junction box:
connect appliance and power supply cable wires as
shown in Figure 1.

Serial Plate Location
You will find the model and serial number printed on the
serial plate. The serial plate is located as shown.
Remember to record the serial number for future
reference.
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, the appliance
frame MUST NOT be connected to the neutral wire
of the 4-wire electrical system. (see figure 2):
1. Disconnect the power supply.
2. Separate the green (or bare copper) and white
appliance cable wires.
3. In the junction box:
connect appliance and power supply cable wires as
shown in Figure 2.
