IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS

• Be sure your wall oven is installed and grounded

properly by a qualifi ed installer or service technician.

• This wall oven must be electrically grounded in

accordance with local codes or, in their absence,
with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No.70-
latest edition in United Sates, or with CSA Standard
C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1, in Canada.

Stepping, leaning or sitting on the door

of this wall oven can result in serious injuries and can
also cause damage to the wall oven.

• Never use your wall oven for warming or heating

the room. Prolonged use of the wall oven without
adequate ventilation can be dangerous.

The electrical power to the oven must be

shut off while line connections are being made. Failure to
do so could result in serious injury or death.

1. Carpentry

Refer to fi gure 1 or 2 for the dimensions applicable to
your appliance, and the space necessary to receive the
oven. The oven support surface may be solid plywood
or similar material, however the surface must be level
from side to side and from front to rear.

2. Adjusting Oven Height

Oven height can be adjusted with 2" (5cm) wide wood
shims when needed to fi t into an existing cabinet
cutout opening, when cutout height exceeds

28

1

/

"

(71.4cm)

for the single wall oven or

49½

"

(125.7cm)

for

the double wall oven (see Figure 1 or 2). Place shims
of appropriate height beneath the oven side rails.

3. Electrical Requirements

This appliance must be supplied with the proper
voltage and frequency, and connected to an individual,
properly grounded branch circuit, protected by a circuit
breaker or fuse. To know the circuit breaker or fuse
required by your model, see the serial plate to fi nd the
wattage consumption and refer to table A to get the
circuit breaker or fuse amperage.

Table A

Observe all governing codes and local ordinances
1. A 3-wire or 4-wire single phase 120/240 or 120/208

Volt, 60 Hz AC only electrical supply is required on a
separate circuit fused on both sides of the line (red
and black wires). A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker
is recommended. DO NOT fuse neutral (white wire).
Only certain cooktop models may be installed over
certain built-in electric oven models. Approved
cooktops and built-in ovens are listed by the MFG
ID number (see the insert sheet included in the
literature package).

NOTE: Wire sizes and connections must conform with
the fuse size and rating of the appliance in accordance
with the American National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA
No. 70-latest edition, or with Canadian CSA Standard
C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1, and local
codes and ordinances.

An extension cord should not be used

with this appliance. Such use may result in a fi re,
electrical shock, or other personal injury. If you need a
longer power cord you can purchase a 10' (3 m) power
cord kit #903056-9010 by calling the Service Center.

2. These appliances should be connected to the

fused disconnect (or circuit breaker) box through
fl exible armored or nonmetallic sheathed cable.
The fl exible armored cable extending from the
appliance should be connected directly to the
junction box. The junction box should be located
as shown in Figure 1 or Figure 2 and with as much
slack as possible remaining in the cable between
the box and the appliance, so it can be moved if
servicing is ever necessary.

3. A suitable strain relief must be provided to attach

the fl exible armored cable to the junction box.
