Electrical Requirements
120 volt, 60 Hertz, properly grounded dedicated circuit
protected by a 15 amp circuit breaker or time delay fuse.
Note: Not recommended to be installed with a Ground
Fault Interrupt (GFI).
Do not use an extension cord with this range.
Grounding Instructions
IMPORTANT Please read carefully.
For personal safety, this appliance must be properly
grounded.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a
3-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard
3-prong grounding wall receptacle (see Figure 6) to
minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from the
appliance.
The wall receptacle and circuit should be checked by
a qualified electrician to make sure the receptacle is
properly grounded.
Where a standard 2-prong wall receptacle is installed,
it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the
consumer to have it replaced by a properly grounded
3-prong wall receptacle.
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the
third (ground) prong from the power cord.
Disconnect electrical supply cord from
wall receptacle before servicing cooktop.

Moving the Appliance for
Servicing and Cleaning
Turn off the range line fuse or circuit breakers at the
main power source, and turn off the manual gas shut-off
valve. Make sure the range is cold. Remove the service
drawer (warmer drawer on some models) and open the
oven door. Lift the range at the front and slide it out
of the cut-out opening without creating undue strain
on the flexible gas conduit. Make sure not to pinch
the flexible gas conduit at the back of the range when
replacing the unit into the cut-out opening. Replace
the drawer, close the door and switch on the electrical
power and gas to the range.

Important Note: Door removal is not a requirement for
installation of the range, but is an added convenience.
Refer to the Use and Care Guide for oven door removal
instructions.
Standard Installation

The range cooktop (or cooktop glass) overlaps the
countertop at the sides and the range rests on the
floor. The cooktop (or cooktop glass) is 31½" (81 cm)

they are plumb and level before attaching cooktop.
Shave raised countertop edge to clear 31½" (81 cm)
wide range top rim.
8.3
Install cabinet doors 31" (78.7 cm) min. apart so they
will not interfere with range door opening.

cooktop. Proper adjustments to make the top flat
should be made or gaps between the countertop and
the range cooktop (or cooktop glass) may occur.
