Install Strain Relief

Place strain relief in knockout below terminal block (See Figure 4). Feed range cord through hole and strain relief up to terminal block. Allow for slack in the cord between the strain relief and terminal block. Once cord length/ slack has been adjusted, attach strain relief per instructrions included with strain relief.

WARNING

The strain relief provided with your range cord must be properly installed.

Safety Instructions

CAUTION:

Make certain that gas shutoff valve and all burner controls are in the OFF position before beginning

Verify that wiring to house is adequate. Contact your local utility company to verify that the present electric service to your home is adequate. In some instances, the size of the wiring to the house and service switch must be increased to handle the electrical load demanded by the range.

Verify that wiring inside house is adequate. Most wiring codes require a separate circuit with separate disconnect switch and fuses either in the main entrance panel or in a separate switch and fuse box. The range requires a three wire 120/240 or 120/208 volt, 30 AMP, 60 Hz AC circuit.

Most local building regulations and codes require that electrical wiring be done by licensed electricians. Be sure to install your range according to the electric codes in place in your region.

To prevent electrical shock, the grounding prong on the range cord should not be cut or removed under any circumstances. It must be plugged into a matching grounding type receptacle and connected to a correctly polarized 240- Volt circuit. If there is any doubt as to whether the wall receptacle is properly grounded, have it checked by a qualified electrician.

General Information

Siemens recommends that the range be installed with a power cord set (not supplied)*. The electrical rating of the power cord set must be 120/240 volt, 30 amperes minimum. The power cord set shall be marked “For Use with Ranges.” Always use a new power cord.

Note: In Canada, the range is shipped from the factory with the range cord already installed. Proceed to “Step 7: Installation - Connect the Gas Supply)

For installations other than those in Canada, connect the range cord at the terminal block (See next page for detailed instructions). Access the terminal block by removing the cover in the lower right hand corner of the range back panel (See Figure 4). Install the strain relief (see next column) and the proper connector through the knockout(s) provided. The electrical supply, including flexible conduit or power cord, should be restricted to the shaded areas in Figure 2 (previous page)

*Not needed for Canadian installations

TIP

The knockout panel (below the terminal block can be removed from the range to install the strain relief: Remove panel from range, install strain relief in panel and re-attach. DO NOT remove entire range back panel.

WARNING

Risk of Electric Shock or Fire. Frame grounded to neutral through a ground strap. Grounding through the neutral conductor is prohibited for new branch- circuit installations (1996 NEC), mobile homes, and recreational vehicles, or in an area where local codes prohibit grounding through the neutral conductor. For installations where grounding through the neutral conductor is prohibited, (a) disconnect the link from the neutral, (b) use grounding terminal or lead to ground unit, (c) connect neutral terminal to lead branch circuit neutral in usual manner (when the appliance is to be connected by means of a cord kit, use 4-conductor cord for this purpose).

Use only cord kits rated 125/250 volts (minimum), 30 amperes and labeled “For Use with Ranges”. Strain relief provided with cord must be installed per instructions included with cord.
