SHIPPING SCREW

For proper baking results, the range must be leveled.
The height of the range must also be adjusted to the
height of the counter. To do this:

Use a 1 3/8" open end or adjustable wrench to equally
back out the four leg levelers until the flanges (rims)
below the sides of the maintop are above the top of the
counter.

Install the oven racks in the oven (see the Cleaning and

Care section in the manual for instructions for additional
information).

Place the range where it will be installed, then put a spirit
level, or a glass measuring cup partially filled with water,

on one of the oven racks to check for levelness. If using

a spirit level, take two readings with the level placed

diagonally first in one direction and then the other.

Use the wrench to adjust the leg levelers. You may have

to pull the range away from the wall to reach the rear leg

levelers. The range should rest on the floor and not hang

from the counter.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

Check with your local utilities for electrical codes which apply
in your area. If there are no local codes, the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1990 must be followed.
You can get a copy by writing:

National Fire Protection Association

Batterymarch Park

Quincy, MA 02269

An adequate electrical supply and outlet must be used to
operate the electrical parts of your range.

The range cord has a three prong plug and must be used with
a properly grounded three hole outlet with a standard 120
volt 60 hertz AC household current. Improper grounding can

affect ignition on spark ignition models.

The preferred method of electrical hook-up is shown in Fig.
8. If you do not have a grounded (three hole) outlet, have a
qualified electrician change your old outlet or install a new
one.

A grounding adapter plug may be used to convert a two hole
outlet to a three hole outlet until the grounded outlet can be
installed. (See Fig. 9). This should be done only temporarily
and only if the two hole outlet is properly polarized.

A

Do not under any circumstances

cut or remove the grounding prong
from the range cord. Failure to

provide proper polarization may

cause shock and fire hazard.
