When the floor covering ends at the front of the range, the area that the range will rest on should be built up with plywood to the same level or higher than the floor covering. This will allow the range to be moved for cleaning or servicing.

STEP 2

PREPARE FOR ELECTRIUL CONNECTION

Use only a 3-conductor, or if required a 4- conductor range cord set as noted below. These cord sets are provided with ring type terminals.

The electrical rating of the cord must be 125/250 volts minimum, 40 amperes.

NOTE: Only a 4-conductor cord is to be used when the appliance is installed in a mobile home or where local codes do not permit grounding through the neutral.

STEP 3
