KitchenAid W10044930B Electrical Requirements, Gas Supply Requirements, Electrical Connection

Electrical Requirements

If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is recommended that a qualified electrical installer determine that the ground path and wire gauge are in accordance with local codes and that the ground path is adequate.

Check with a qualified electrical installer if you are not sure the range is properly grounded.

Do not use an extension cord.

Make sure that the electrical connection and wire size are adequate and in conformance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition and all local codes and ordinances.

A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:

Electrical Connection

To properly install your range, you must determine the type of electrical connection you will be using and follow the instructions provided for it here.

■Range must be connected to the proper electrical voltage and frequency as specified on the model/serial number rating plate. (The model/serial number rating plate is located on the right vertical surface of the oven door frame.)

■Range must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent wiring system.

■A 4-wire or 3-wire, single phase, 120/240 volt, 60 Hz., AC only electrical supply is required on a separate, 30-amp circuit, fused on both sides of the line.

■A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended. The fuse size must not exceed the circuit rating of the range specified on the model/serial rating plate located on the right vertical surface of the oven door frame. Refer to the figure in the “Product Dimensions” section of “Location Requirements” section.

■The range can be connected directly to the fused disconnect (or circuit breaker box) through flexible, or nonmetallic sheathed, copper or aluminum cable. The flexible, cable extending from the fuse box or circuit breaker box should be connected directly to the junction box. See “Make Electrical Connection.”

■Locate the junction box to allow as much slack as possible between the junction box and the range so that the range can be moved if servicing is ever necessary. Do not cut the conduit.

■A UL listed or CSA approved conduit connector must be provided at each end of the power supply cable (at the range and at the junction box).

■Wire sizes and connections must conform with the rating of the range (30 amps).

■If the house has aluminum wiring follow the procedure below:

1.Connect a section of solid copper wire to the pigtail leads.

2.Connect the aluminum wiring to the added section of copper wire using special connectors and/or tools designed and UL listed for joining copper to aluminum.

Follow the electrical connector manufacturer's recommended procedure. Aluminum/copper connection must conform with local codes and industry accepted wiring practices.

Gas Supply Requirements

WARNING

Explosion Hazard

Use a new CSA International approved gas supply line.

Install a shut-off valve.

Securely tighten all gas connections.

If connected to LP, have a qualified person make sure gas pressure does not exceed 14" (36 cm) water column.

Examples of a qualified person include:

licensed heating personnel,

authorized gas company personnel, and authorized service personnel.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

IMPORTANT: This installation must conform with all local codes and ordinances. In the absence of local codes, installation must conform with American National Standard, National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 - latest edition or CAN/CGA B149 - latest edition.

IMPORTANT: Range cooktop must be connected to a regulated gas supply.

IMPORTANT: Leak testing of the range cooktop must be conducted according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Type of Gas

Natural Gas:

This range is design-certified by CSA International for use with Natural gas or, after proper conversion, for use with LP gas.

■This range is factory set for use with Natural gas. The model/ serial rating plate located on the right vertical surface of the oven door frame has information on the types of gas that can be used. If the types of gas listed do not include the type of gas available, check with the local gas supplier.

LP Gas conversion:

Conversion must be done by a qualified service technician.

No attempt shall be made to convert the range cooktop from the gas specified on the model/serial rating plate for use with a different gas without consulting the serving gas supplier. To convert to LP gas, use the LP gas conversion kit provided with your range. The parts for this kit are in the literature package supplied with the range.
