Terminal block is approved for copper wire connection only, NOT aluminum wiring. If aluminum house wiring is to be connected, the following procedure is suggested.

1.Connect length of copper building wire to range terminal block with ring terminals.

2.Splice copper wires to aluminum wiring using connectors which are designed certified by Underwriter’s Laboratories and recognized for joining copper to aluminum. Follow the connector manufacturer’s recommended procedure.

3.Wire used, location and enclosure of splices must conform to local codes.

Installing 3-Wire Power Cord

See Figure 7. Refer to power cord instructions if available for additional information.

1.Remove rear wire cover on rear of range.

2.Place strain relief (winged clamp) in cord access hole below terminal block.

Strain relief is supplied with cord. Place wings through hole, entering from bottom. Screw holes in clamp should be below mounting panel. Place cord through strain relief.

3.Attach neutral (center) or white wire to center terminal on terminal block.

4.Attach power lead, red wire or black wire to left side power terminal.

5.Attach power lead, red wire or black wire to the right side power terminal.

6.After wires have been placed on terminals, attach with hex nuts provided.

Firmly tighten to ensure proper electrical connection.

7.Place screw through strain relief and tighten.

8.Replace rear wire cover.
