INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

120 Volt, 60 Hertz, properly grounded dedicated circuit protected by a 15 or 20 Amp circuit breaker, or slow

blow fuse.

GROUNDING

IMPORTANT: 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 to minimize the

possibility of electric shock hazard from this

appliance.
The customer should have the wall receptacle and

circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure

the receptacle is properly grounded.
Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is

encountered, it is the personal responsibility and

obligation of the customer to have it replaced with a

properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle.
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT OR

REMOVE THE THIRD (GROUND) PRONG FROM

THE POWER CORD.
A word about GFCI’s – GFCI’s are not required or

recommended for gas range receptacles.
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI’s) are devices

that sense leakage of current in a circuit and

automatically switch off power when a threshold

leakage level is detected. These devices must be

manually reset by the consumer. The National

Electrical Code requires the use of GFCI’s in kitchen

receptacles installed to serve countertop surfaces.

Performance of the range will not be affected if

operated on a GFCI-protected circuit but occasional

nuisance can occur.

DO NOT use an adapter plug because disconnecting

of the power cord places undue strain on the adapter

and leads to eventual failure of the adapter ground

terminal.
The installation of appliances designed for mobile

home installation must conform with the Manufactured

Home Construction and Safety Standard, Title 24

CFR, Part 3280 (formerly the Federal Standard for

Mobile Home Construction and Safety, Title 24, HUD,

Part 280) or, when such standard is not applicable,

the Standard for Manufactured Home Installations,

latest edition (Manufactured Home Sites,

Communities and Set-Ups), ANSI A225.1, latest

edition, or with local codes. In Canada, mobile home

installation must be in accordance with the current

CAN/CSA Z240/MH Mobile Home Installation Code.

3. ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

The customer should have the circuit checked by a

qualified electrician to make sure the receptacle is
