Power supply cord method:
Electrical Shock Hazard
Disconnect power before servicing.
Use a new 40 amp power supply cord.
Plug into a grounded outlet.
Failure to follow these instructions can
result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

1. Disconnect power.
2. Remove the knockout for the 40 amp
power supply cord.
3. Assemble a U.L.-listed strain relief in the
opening.
4. Insert the power supply cord through
the strain relief, allowing enough slack to
WARNING - Improper connection of the
equipment-grounding conductor can
result in a risk of electric shock. Check
with a qualified electrician or serviceman
if you are in doubt as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded. Do not
modify the power supply cord plug. If it
will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
This range is manufactured with the
neutral terminal connected to the cabinet.
Use a three-wire, U.L.-listed, 40 amp
power supply cord (pigtail); or if local
codes Do Not permit ground through the
neutral, use a four-wire power supply
cord rated at 250 volts, 40 amps and
investigated for use with ranges. (See
“Four-wire electrical connection.”)
WARNING
easily attach the wiring to the terminal
block.
5. Use only ring-type terminals to
connect the power supply.
6. Complete electrical connection
according to your type electrical
supply (“Four-wire electrical
connection” or “Three-wire electrical
connection.”)

whenever four-wire installation is
required.
7. Remove the ground-link screw from the
range frame. Save the ground-link
screw. Bend up the ground link so that
it does not contact the range. See
Figure 1.
8. Connect the green ground wire from
power supply cord to the range using
the ground-link screw. The ground wire
must be attached first and must not
contact any other terminal. See
Figure 2.
9. Use 3/8” nut driver and remove the
outside nuts on the terminal block
screws. Do not loosen the factory-
tightened nuts behind the outside nuts.
