Electrical: 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 number rating plate is located behind the control panel or on the oven frame behind the storage drawer or warming drawer panel. Refer to the figures in the “Product Dimensions” section of 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 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.

Range Rating*		Specified Rating of
		Power Supply Cord Kit
		and Circuit Protection
120/240 Volts	120/208 Volts	Amps
8.8 - 16.5 KW	7.8 - 12.5 KW	40 or 50**
16.6 - 22.5 KW	12.6 - 18.5 KW	50

*The NEC calculated load is less than the total connected load listed on the model/serial rating plate.

**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.
