b. MODELS REQUIRING POWER SUPPLY CORD KIT
RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRICAL SHOCK MAY OCCUR IF AN INCORRECT SIZE RANGE CORD KIT IS USED, THE INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS ARE NOT FOLLOWED OR STRAIN RELIEF BRACKET IS DISCARDED.
This appliance may be connected by means of a power supply cord. Only a power supply cord kit rated 120/240 volts, 40
amperes and marked for use with ranges shall be used.
•
Use only a 3-conductor or a 4-conductor UL-listed range cord. These cords must be provided with closed-loop terminals
on wire and a strain relief device properly installed.
•
A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended.
•
Local codes may permit the use of a UL-listed, 250 volt, 40 amp range power supply cord (pigtail) This cord contains three
No. 10 copper wires and matches a 3-wire receptacle of NEMA Type 10-50R. Connectors on the appliance end must be
provided at the point the power supply cord enters the appliance.
•
The range can be connected directly to the fused disconnected (or circuit breaker box) through flexible armored conduit.
Allow 2 to 3 feet of slack in the line so that it can be moved if servicing is ever necessary.
An UL-listed conduit connector must be provided at each end of the power supply cable (at the range and at the
o
junction box)
Wire sizes and connections must conform to the rating of the range (40 amp)
o
The wiring diagram is located on the back of the range in a bag.
For power cord installations only:
•
Disconnect power before servicing.
•
Use a new 40Amp power supply cord.
Assemble the strain relief in the hole. Insert the power cord through the strain relief and tighten. Allow enough slack to easily
attach the cord terminals to the terminal block. If tabs are present at the end of the winged strain relief, they can be removed
for better fit.
Important: Do not install the power cord without a strain relief. The strain relief bracket should be installed before
reinstalling the rear range wiring cover.
3-CONDUCTOR POWER CORD INSTALLATION
Use this method only if local codes permit connecting cabinet-ground conductor to neutral wire of power supply cord.
•
Remove the wire cover (on the back of range) by removing 3 screws using a Phillips screwdriver. The terminal block will
then be accessible.
•
Remove the knockout ring (1 3/8") located on bracket directly below the terminal block. To remove the knockout, use a
pair of pliers to bend the knockout ring away from the bracket and twist until ring is removed.
•
Assemble a U.L.-listed strain relief in the opening.
•
Insert the power supply cord through the strain relief, allowing enough slack to easily attach the wiring to the terminal
block.
•
Use only ring terminals to connect the power supply.
•
Use a ¼" nut driver and remove the hex washer head nuts from the terminal block.
•
Connect the outer wires to the outside terminals and the center wire to the center terminal. Securely tighten nuts for
proper electrical connection. Do not remove the ground strap.
•
Tighten the strain relief screws.
•
Re-install the wire cover with the 3 screws removed earlier. Make sure the wires do not become pinched between the wire
cover and main back.
WARNING:
Electrical Shock Hazard
•
Plug into a grounded outlet.
•
Failure to follow these instructions can
result in death, fire or electrical shock.
