WARNING
Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is
too short, have a qualified electrician install an outlet near
the appliance.
To prevent electrical shock, the grounding prong on the

ceptacle and connected to a correctly polarized 240-
Volt circuit.
If there is any doubt as to whether the wall receptacle is
▶
properly grounded, have it checked by a qualified elec-
trician.
The range may be connected using an electric range
¡
cord, or using a flexible conduit electrical connection.
Use only cord kits rated 250 Volts, 50 Amperes (mini-
¡
mum), and labeled "For Use with Ranges".
It is recommended that only qualified persons add a
¡
power cord or make electrical connections to this appli-
ance.
Note: In Canada, the range is shipped from the factory
with the range cord already installed. Continue to install
the range into the cabinets.
