Personal Injury Hazard

To eliminate the risk of burns or fire, avoid installing cabinet storage above the cooking surface. If cabinets are already installed, reduce the hazard of reaching over a heated cooking surface by installing a range hood.

The range hood should extend a minimum of 5 inches out from the bottom of the cabinets.

Reaching over a heated cooking surface could result in a serious burn.

l Only a power supply cord kit rated at 250 volts, 40 amperes and investigated for use with ranges should be used.

l Do Not use an extension cord with this appliance. Such use may result in a fire, electrical shock or other personal injury.

n Do Not have a fuse in the neutral or grounding circuit. A fuse in the neutral or grounding circuit could result in electrical shock.

b Do Not plug the “pigtail” power cord into a live wall receptacle before the cord is permanently connected to the terminal block. To do so may result in personal injury from electrical shock.

:ailure to follow these instructions could esult in serious injury or death.

If codes permit.~and a separate grounding wire is used, it is recommended that a qualified electrician determine that the grounding path is adequate.

A n A three-wire or four-wire sinale phase 120/240-volt, 60.Hz, AC only ” electrical supply (or three-wire or four- wire 120/208-volt if specified on serial plate) is required on a separate 40 ampere circuit, fused on both sides of the line. Do Not fuse the neutral. A time-delay or circuit breaker is recommended.

B n All wires ending at the appliance must terminate in ring-type terminals,

C n Local codes may permit the use of flexible type 40-ampere U.L.-listed power supply cord (pigtail) with no smaller than No. 8 copper wire to match three-wire receptacle of NEMA-type lo-50R as shown in Figure 1. A U.L.-listed strain relief must be provided at the point the power supply cord enters the appliance.

D n The range may be connected directly to the fised disconnect (or circuit breaker) box through flexible armored or non-metallic, sheathed copper cable. Allow at least 3 feet minimum of slack in the line between the wall and the appliance so that it can be moved if servicing is ever necessary A suitable strain relief must be provided at each end of the copper power supply cord (at the appliance and at the junction box).
