Unpacking and Moving the Range, Electrical Supply

Electrical Supply

Installation of the range must be planned so that the rough- in of the terminal block for the receptacle or conduit connection will allow maximum clearance to the rear of the unit.

When the power supply cord or conduit is connected to the mating receptacle or terminal block cover, the combined connection should protrude no more than 2“(51mm) from the rear wall (see Figure 4).

Refer to Figure 11 on page 16 for location of the terminal block on unit. To minimize binding when the unit is connected, orient the receptacle or conduit connector, and slide back into position.

Step 3: Unpacking and Moving the Range

CAUTION:

The unit is heavy and should be handled accordingly. Proper safety equipment such as gloves and adequate manpower of at least two people must be used in moving the range to avoid injury and to avoid damage to the unit or the floor. Rings, watches, and any other loose items that may damage the unit or otherwise might become entangled with the unit should be removed.

Hidden surfaces may have sharp edges. Use caution when reaching behind or under appliance.

The range has an approximate shipping weight as shown in “Chart A”. The grates, griddle plate, burner caps, and oven racks must be removed to facilitate handling. Do not remove the griddle element and tray assembly.

1.Remove the outer carton and packing materials from the shipping pallet but leave the adhesive-backed foam layer over brushed-metal surfaces, to protect finish from scratches, until the range is installed in its final position.

2.Remove the door(s) (see “Step 4: Door Removal and Reinstallation” on page 10); however, do not remove the warming drawer or steam oven doors. This will create an estimated reduction in the weight as shown in “Chart A” and allow the range to pass through 30" (762mm) doorways (see clearances shown on page 6).
