Installation requirements
•
Do not, under any circumstances, cut, modify, remove, or otherwise defeat the
grounding (third) prong from the power cord. If the plug and the outlet do not
match or you have any doubt, have a qualified electrician install the proper
outlet.
The customer should have the wall receptacle and circuit checked by a
qualified electrician to make sure the receptacle is properly grounded.
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCIs) are not required or recommended for
gas range receptacles.
•
NEVER connect ground wire to plastic plumbing lines, gas lines, or water
pipes.
CAUTION
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

Usage situations where appliance power cord will be disconnected frequently
Do not use an adapter plug in these situations because disconnecting of the
power cord places undue strain on the adapter and leads to eventual failure
of the adapter ground terminal. Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle
is encountered, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer
to have it replaced with a three-prong (grounding) receptacle by a qualified
electrician before using the appliance.
Additional installation requirements for mobile homes
The installation of appliances designed for mobile home installation must conform
with the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standard, Title 24 CFR, Part
3280 (formerly the Federal Standard for Mobile Home Construction and Safety,
Title 24, HUD, Part 280) or, when such standard is not applicable, the Standard
for Manufactured Home Installations, latest edition (Manufactured Home Sites,
Communities and Set-Ups), ANSI A225.1, latest edition, or with local codes. In
Canada, mobile home installation must be in accordance with the current CAN/CSA
Z240/MH Mobile Home Installation Code.
