Electrical Requirements
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
For a grounded, cord-connected appliance:
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a
malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of
electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for
electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having
an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug.
The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is
properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.
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 plug provided with the appliance: if it will not fit
the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is
recommended that a qualified electrical installer determine that
the ground path and the wire gauge are in accordance with local
codes.
Check with a qualified electrical installer if you are not sure the
oven is properly grounded.
This oven must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent
wiring system.
Be sure that the electrical connection and wire size are adequate
and in conformance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA
70-latest edition or CSA Standards C22.1-94, Canadian Electrical
Code, Part 1 and C22.2 No. O-M91-latest edition, and all local
codes and ordinances.
