a qualified installer or service technician.• Be sure the oven is securely installed in a

cabinet that is firmly attached to the housestructure. Weight on the oven door couldcause the oven to tip and result in injury.Never allow anyone to climb, sit, stand orhang on the oven door.

• Make sure the cabinets and wall coveringsaround the oven can withstand thetemperatures (up to 200°F) generatedby the oven.

ElectricalRequirementsThis appliance must be supplied with theproper voltage and frequency, and connectedto an individual, properly grounded branchcircuit, protected by a circuit breaker or fusehaving amperage as noted on rating plate.(Rating Plate is located on oven side trim.)We recommend you have the electrical wiringand hookup of your oven connected by aqualified electrician. After installation, have theelectrician show you where your main ovendisconnect is located.Check with your local utilities for electricalcodes which apply in your area. Failure to wireyour oven according to governing codes couldresult in a hazardous condition. If there are nolocal codes, your oven must be wired and fusedto meet the requirements of the NationalElectrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70–LatestEdition. You can get a copy by writing:

National Fire Protection AssociationBatterymarch ParkQuincy, MA 02269

Effective January 1, 1996, the NationalElectrical Code requires that new, but notexisting, construction utilize a four-conductorconnection to an electric oven. When installingan electric oven in new construction, a mobilehome, recreational vehicle or an area wherelocal codes prohibit grounding through theneutral conductor, follow the instructions inthe section on NEW CONSTRUCTION ANDFOUR-CONDUCTOR BRANCH CIRCUITCONNECTION.You must use a three-wire, single-phase A.C.208Y/120 Volt or 240/120 Volt, 60 hertzelectrical system. If you connect to aluminumwiring, properly installed connectors approvedfor use with aluminum wiring must be used.

WARNING: The electricalpower to the oven supply linemust be shut off while line

connections are being made. Failureto do so could result in serious injuryor death.
