Electrical and grounding safety
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, personal injury, or death, observe these
precautions:
• Plug the range into a grounded 4-prong outlet.
•
Do not remove the ground prong.
• Do not use an adapter or an extension cord.
• Do not use a damaged power plug, power cord, or loose power outlet.
• Do not modify the power plug, cord, or outlet.
• Do not put a fuse in a neutral or ground circuit.
• Use a dedicated 120 Vac , 60-Hz, 20-Amp breaker for this Range. A time-delay fuse or
circuit breaker is recommended. Do not plug more than one appliance into this circuit.
• Do not connect the ground wire to plastic plumbing lines, gas lines, or hot water pipes.
• This range must be grounded . If the range malfunctions or breaks down, grounding
reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a safe path for the current. This range’s
power cord has a grounding plug, which must be firmly plugged into an outlet that is
properly installed and grounded according to local regulations. If you are not sure your
electrical outlet is properly grounded, have it checked by a licensed electrician.
• The range is supplied with a 4-pronged grounded plug. This cord must be plugged into
a mating, grounded 4-prong outlet that meets all local codes and ordinances. If codes
permit the use of a separate ground wire, we recommend that a qualified electrician
determine the proper path for this ground wire.
• Electrical service to the range must conform to local codes. Barring local codes,
it should meet the latest ANSI/NFPA No. 70 – Latest Revision (for the U.S.) or the
Canadian Electrical Code CSA C22.1 – Latest Revisions.
• The range owner shall ensure that the proper electrical service is provided for the
range.
