ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

INSTALLATION – ELECTRICALCONNECTIONSBecause of potential safety hazardsunder certain conditions, we stronglyrecommend against the use of anextension cord. However, if you stillelect to use an extension cord, it isabsolutely necessary that it is a ULlisted 3-wire grounding-type applianceextension cord and that the currentcarrying rating of the cord in amperesis equivalent to or greater than thebranch circuit rating. Such extensioncords are obtainable through your localappliance dealer.

IMPORTANT: (Please read carefully)FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, THISAPPLIANCE MUST BE PROPERLYGROUNDED.

An adequate electrical supply andoutlet must be used to operate theelectrical parts of your range.

• The power cord of this appliance isequipped with a three-prong (grounding)plug which must be used with a properlygrounded three-hole outlet with standard120 Volt, 60 cycle AC household current.

• When a standard two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to have it replaced with aproperly grounded three-prong wallreceptacle by a qualified electrician.

Do not under any circumstances cut orremove grounding prong from the rangecord. Failure to provide proper ground maycreate a hazardous condition.
