revxed The appliance coblnet must not be connected to the neutral termlnol. but must be connected to the grounding we [green] of the power supply cord. [See “Four-wireelectrlcal connection” sectlon. Panel C.]

When o four-wire receptacle of NEMA tvpe Id-50R is used (See Figure 2.). o matching. U.L.-listed, 120/240-volt, 50. ampere. range power supply cord (plgtail) must be used. This cord contains four copper conductors with ring terminals on the appliance end, terminating in a NEMA type 14.5OP plug on the supply end. The fourth (grounding) conductor must be identified by a green or green/yellow cover and the neutral conductor by a while cover. Cord should be Type SRD or SRDTwith a U.L.-l&c strain relief and be at least four feet long

The MINIMUM conductor sizes for the copper 4-wire power cord are:

Venting requhements

Terminate venting system to the

Do Not terminate the vent in an attic or other enclosed space.

Failure to follow these instructions could result in a fire.

Ductwork needed for lnslallafion is not included. Wall or roofcaps used must have back-draft damper.

Determine which outslde venting

method needs to be used Note: If a non- venting (reclrculatlng] Installation 1s desired, you will need to order Non-vent Kit a14023 and follow Installation inslructions provided with the kit

The length of ductwork and number of elbows should be kept to a mlnimum to provide effictent performance The size of the ductwork should be uniform Do Net install two elbows together Use duct tape to seal all joints In duct system. Ductwork can terminate either through the roof or wall. Figures 3-5 show ccmmon venting methods and what types of materials are needed Use ccJklng to seal exferlor wall or roof opening around exhaust hood
