53-WIRE INSTALLATION

WARNING: The neutral or ground wire of the power cord must be connected

to the neutral terminal located in the center of the terminal block and the ground strap must connect the neutral terminal to the ground plate. The power leads must be connected to the lower left and the lower right terminals of the terminal block.

DO NOT remove the ground strap connection.

FOR POWER CORD INSTALLATION

A. Remove the 3 lower terminal screws from the terminal block.

B. Insert the 3 terminal screws through each power cord terminal ring and into the lower terminals of the terminal block. Be certain that the center wire (white/neutral)

is connected to the center lower position of the terminal block.

C. Tighten screws securely into the terminal block.

FOR CONDUIT INSTALLATION

A. Loosen the 3 lower terminal screws on the terminal block. Strip wire to exposed tip about 5/8” long.

B. Insert the center (white/neutral) wire tip through the bottom center terminal block opening. On certain models, the wire will need to be inserted through the ground strap opening

and then into the bottom center block opening. Insert the two side bare wire tips into the lower left and the lower right terminal block openings.

C. Tighten the screws until the wire is firmly secured (35 to 50 inch-lbs.). Do not over-tighten the screws.

NOTE: ALUMINUM WIRING: Aluminum building wire may be used but it must be rated for the correct amperage and voltage.

and the lower right terminals of the terminal block. The grounding lead must be connected to the frame of the range with the ground plate and the green ground screw.

FOR POWER CORD INSTALLATION

A. Remove the 3 lower terminal screws from the terminal block. Remove the ground screw and ground plate and retain them. Cut and discard the ground strap. DONOTDISCARDANYSCREWS.

B.Insert the one ground screw into the power cord ground wire terminal ring, through the ground plate and into the frame of the range.

C.Insert the 3 terminal screws (removed earlier) through each power cord terminal ring and into the lower terminals of the terminal block. Be certain that the center wire (white/neutral) is connected to the center lower position of the terminal block. Tighten screws securely into the terminal block.

FOR CONDUIT INSTALLATION

This model combines robust functionality with sleek design, making it a popular choice for homeowners looking to elevate their cooking experience without sacrificing aesthetic appeal.

One of the standout features of the GE JB988SK is its induction cooking technology. Induction cooking utilizes electromagnetic energy to directly heat pots and pans, delivering faster cooking times and precise temperature control. This technology not only ensures even heating but also enhances energy efficiency since only the cookware gets hot, leaving the surrounding surface cool to the touch. This feature is particularly valuable for safety-conscious households, as it significantly reduces the risk of burns.

The range also boasts a spacious oven capacity of 5.3 cubic feet, providing ample room for roasting, baking, or preparing multiple dishes simultaneously. With an advanced convection system, the oven promotes even heat distribution, ensuring that food is cooked thoroughly and consistently, while the self-clean option offers added convenience for maintaining the oven's cleanliness without manual scrubbing.

In terms of user interface, the GE JB988SK comes equipped with a modern touch control panel. This intuitive design enhances user experience, allowing cooks to easily access a variety of cooking settings and monitor their meals with accuracy. Additionally, the oven features a built-in temperature probe, allowing users to keep an eye on the internal temperature of meats and other dishes for perfect results every time.

Another remarkable characteristic of the GE JB988SK is its ability to integrate with smart technology. Compatible with Wi-Fi connectivity, this range enables users to control cooking functions remotely through a smartphone app. This integration aligns with the growing trend of smart home devices, offering enhanced convenience and flexibility for busy lifestyles.

Lastly, the GE JB988SK is designed with a sleek stainless steel finish and an elegant appearance that complements various kitchen styles. The smooth surface is easy to clean and resists fingerprints and smudges, maintaining a polished look even after extended use.

In conclusion, the GE JB988SK is a compelling choice for anyone seeking a combination of advanced cooking technologies, user-friendly features, and modern design. Whether you're a culinary enthusiast or simply looking to elevate your everyday meals, this electric range proves to be a valuable addition to any kitchen setup.
