Installation
English 6
For installations other than those in Canada, install the strain relief and connect
the range cord (or wire conductors) as described in the following steps.
* Varies by location. Refer to local electric code.
Installation Procedure
Installation Tips • Tape warming drawer or storage drawer shut to keep it from opening while
installing the range.
• During installation, place a portion of the box or a piece of cloth under the
range to protect floors.
• To make range lighter and easier to handle, remove door (see instructions in
Use and Care manual).
Install Ventilation We strongly recommend the installation of a ventilation hood above this range.
For most kitchens a certified hood rating of not less than 300 CFM is recom-
mended. The range hood must be installed according to instructions furnished
with the hood.
Prepare Walls and Floor Seal any holes in the walls or floor. Remove any obstructions (extra electrical or
gas connections, etc.) so that range will rest against wall properly.
Prepare Range Place range in front of cabinets where it is to be installed. Remove any packaging.
Install Strain Relief WARNING:
The strain relief provided with your range cord must be properly
installed.
Place strain relief in knockout below terminal block. See Figure 4: Electrical Con-
nection and Strain Relief Knockout Panel Locations. 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 instructions included with strain relief.
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 reattach. DO NOT remove entire range back
panel.
