The Three-Prong Outlet

The range cord has a three-prong plug and must be plugged into a properly grounded three-hole outlet. The outlet must be in a standard 120 Volt, 60 Hertz AC household circuit.

Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the grounding prong from the range cord. Failure to provide proper

polarization may cause shock and fire hazard.

Improper grounding can affect spark ignition on models so equipped.

If you do not have a grounded three-hole outlet, have an electrician change your old outlet or install a new one.

To temporarily use a properly polarized and grounded two-hole outlet until a grounded three- hole outlet can be installed, a grounding adapter plug may be used. Have an electrician test the outlet to be sure it meets requirements.

Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to have it replaced with a properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle.

DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES CUT OR REMOVE THE THIRD GROUND PRONG FROM THE POWER CORD.
