STEP6:ELECTRICALREQUIREMENTS,CONNECTION&GROUNDING

•Prior to servicing appliance, always disconnect appliance electrical supply cord, if so equipped, from wall receptacle. If appliance is hard- wired to power supply, disconnect power to unit by turning off the

proper circuit breaker or disconnecting the proper fuse.

•Gas range models PRG304, PRG36 and PRG48 must be plugged into a 3-prong grounding type receptacle.

•Dual Fuel range models PRDS304. PRDS36 and PRDS48 can be cord-con- nected or hard-wired to the power supply, as described on Page 17.

•For the PRG All-Gas Ranges, improper polarization of the 120 VAC electrical supply circuit will cause malfunction (such as continuous sparking of the burner igniters), may damage this appliance, and could create a condition of shock hazard at the igniter of each burner. If the circuit is not correctly polarized, it is the responsibility and obliga- tion of the installer or user to have the existing receptacle changed to a properly polar- ized receptacle in accordance with all applicable local codes and ordinances by a qualified electrician. In the absence of local codes and ordinances, the receptacle replacement shall be in accordance with the National Electric Code.

•For the PRDS Dual-Fuel Ranges, a neutral supply wire must be provided from the power source (breaker/fuse panel) because critical range components, including the surface burner spark reignition module, require

120 VAC to operate safely and properly. An improper 120/240 VAC power supply will cause malfunction, damage this appliance, and possibly create a condition of shock hazard. If the correct power supply circuit is not provided, it is the responsibil- ity and obligation of the installer or user to have proper power supply connected. This must be accomplished in accordance with all applicable local codes and ordinances by a qualified electrician. In the

absence of local codes and ordinances, the power supply connection shall be in accor- dance with the National Electric Code.

•Observe all governing codes and ordinances when ground- ing. In the absence of these codes or ordinances observe National Electrical Code ANSI/ NFPA No. 70 Current Issue. See pages 17 and 18 for grounding method.

•Electrical wiring diagrams and schematics have been placed in the toe kick area of the range for access by a qualified service technician.

•The PRDS Dual Fuel Ranges may be connected to a 120/ 208 VAC power supply.
