Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

Fig. 3.1

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

Check with a qualified electrician if you are not sure whether the range is properly grounded.

Do Not ground to a gas pipe.

A 120-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only, 15-ampere, fused electrical supply is required. A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended. It is recommended that a separate circuit serv- ing only this appliance be provided.

The outlet must be checked by a qualified electrician to see if it is wired with correct polarity.

This appliance, when installed, must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes.

Recommended ground method

For your personal safety, this range must be grounded. This range is equipped with a 3-prong ground plug. To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged into a mating 3-prong ground-type outlet, grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70 latest edition and local codes and ordinances. If a mat- ing outlet is not available, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to have a properly polarized and grounded, 3-prong outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

VERY IMPORTANT

Before any operation of maintenance disconnect the appliance from the electrical mains supply.
