PRODUCT MODEL NUMBERS

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

To properly install your range, you must determine the type of electrical connection you will be using and follow the instructions provided for it here.

• Range must be connected to the proper electrical voltage and frequency as specified on the model/serial/rating plate. The model/ serial/rating plate is located behind the oven door on the top righthand side of the oven frame.
• This range is manufactured with the neutral terminal connected to the cabinet. Use a 3-wire, UL listed, 40- or 50-amp power supply cord (pigtail). See the following Range Rating chart. If local codes do not permit ground through the neutral, use a 4-wire power supply cord rated at 250 volts, 40- or 50-amps, and investigated for use with ranges.

Range Rating*

* The NEC calculated load is less than the total connected load listed on the model/serial/rating plate.
** If connecting to a 50-amp circuit, use a 50-amp rated cord with kit. For 50-amp rated cord kits, use kits that specify use with a nominal 13/8″ (3.5 cm) diameter connection opening.

• A circuit breaker is recommended.
