ELECTRICAL AND GROUNDING SAFETY
WARNING To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, personal injuries, and/or death, obey the
following precautions.
•
Plug into a grounded 3-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, power cord, or power
•
outlet in any way.
Do not put a fuse in a neutral or ground circuit.
•
•
Use a dedicated 120-volt, 60-Hz, 20-amp, AC, fused electrical circuit 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 Earth grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding
•
will reduce the risk of electrical shock by providing a path for the electric current. This range is
equipped with a cord having a grounding plug. The plug must be firmly plugged into an outlet
that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with the local codes and ordinances. If
you are unsure whether your electrical outlet is properly grounded, have it checked by a licensed
electrician.
•
The range is supplied with a 3-pronged grounded plug. This cord must be plugged into a mating,
grounded 3-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.
•
It is the personal responsibility of the range owner to provide the correct electrical service for this
range.
