ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

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 rating plate is located on the side of the oven frame behind the storage drawer or warming drawer panel. Refer to the figures in “Product Dimensions” in the “Location Requirements” section.

This range is manufactured with the neutral terminal connected to the cabinet. Use a 3-wire, UL listed, 40- or 50-amp power supply cord (pigtail) (see the following Range Rating chart). If local codes do not permit ground through the neutral, use a 4-wire power supply cord rated at 250 volts, 40 or 50 amps and investigated for use with ranges.

**If connecting to a 50-amp circuit, use a 50-amp rated cord with kit. For 50-amp rated cord kits, use kits that specify use with a nominal 1³⁄₈" (34.9 mm) diameter connection opening.

A circuit breaker is recommended.

The range can be connected directly to the circuit breaker box (or fused disconnect) through flexible or nonmetallic sheathed, copper or aluminum cable. See the “Electrical Connection - U.S.A. Only” section.

Allow 2 to 3 ft (61.0 cm to 91.4 cm) of slack in the line so that the range can be moved if servicing is ever necessary.

A UL listed 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.

The wiring diagram is located on the back of the range or behind the storage drawer, in a clear plastic bag.

COUNTERTOP PREPARATION (for Slide-in Ranges Only)

The cooktop sides of the slide-in range fit over the cutout edge of your countertop.

If you have a square finish (flat) countertop and the opening width is 30" (76.2 cm), no countertop preparation is required.

Formed front-edged countertops must have molded edge shaved flat ³⁄₈" (1.0 cm) from each front corner of opening.

Tile countertops may need trim cut back ³⁄₈" (1.0 cm) from each front corner and/or rounded edge flattened.

GY399LXU, GY397LXU specifications

The Whirlpool GY397LXU and GY399LXU are two exceptional ranges that exemplify modern kitchen technology combined with user-friendly features. Designed to meet the needs of both amateur cooks and culinary enthusiasts, these appliances are a testament to Whirlpool’s commitment to quality and innovation.

One of the standout features of both models is their powerful cooking performance. The ranges come equipped with a convection oven that promotes even heat distribution, ensuring that dishes are cooked thoroughly and efficiently. The convection technology works by circulating hot air around the food, which not only speeds up cooking times but also helps achieve desirable textures in baked goods, making them crisp on the outside while remaining moist on the inside.

The GY397LXU and GY399LXU also boast a flexible cooking surface that includes multiple burners with varying heat outputs. This allows home chefs to choose the right level of heat for different types of cooking, from simmering delicate sauces to searing meats. The precise burner controls ensure accurate temperature adjustments, catering to a range of culinary techniques.

Another significant feature of these ranges is the self-cleaning option. With a powerful self-cleaning mode, maintaining the oven’s cleanliness is hassle-free. The high-temperature cleaning cycle breaks down food residues, making it easy to wipe away ash and grime with minimal effort.

Both models also prioritize user convenience with their intuitive control panels. The easy-to-read digital displays allow for straightforward navigation among functions, making it simple to set timers and cooking modes. Some models include advanced features such as delay start, providing additional flexibility for busy households.

Energy efficiency is another focal point in the design of the GY397LXU and GY399LXU. They meet strict energy standards, helping to reduce energy consumption while still delivering powerful cooking performance. This not only benefits the environment but also contributes to lower utility bills over time.

In terms of build quality, both ranges feature sturdy construction with a sleek stainless-steel finish that complements various kitchen décors. The modern design enhances the overall aesthetics of the kitchen while providing durability for everyday use.

In summary, the Whirlpool GY397LXU and GY399LXU are robust and versatile cooking appliances that combine innovative features with energy-efficient technologies. With convection cooking, easy-clean options, and user-friendly controls, they are designed to enhance the cooking experience, making them an excellent addition to any contemporary kitchen.
