With the oven supported on a table or
platform in front of the cabinet opening,
connect the flexible conduit to the
electrical junction box as shown below.
Position the conduit in such a manner
that it will lie on top of the oven in
a natural loop when the oven is
installed. You will need to purchase
an appropriate strain relief clamp to
complete the connection of the conduit
to the junction box.
DO NOT shorten the flexible conduit.
The conduit strain relief clamp must be
securely attached to the junction box
and the flexible conduit must be securely
attached to the clamp. If the flexible
conduit will not fit within the clamp, do not
install the oven until a clamp of the proper
size is obtained.

Installation Instructions
Pre-Test Checklist
Remove all protective film, if present,
and any stickers.
Check that the bottom trim is installed
properly (see page 11).
Check to be sure that all wiring is
secure and not pinched or in contact
with moving parts.
Check to be sure the mounting screws
are installed and flush with the side trim
(see page 10).
Operation Checklist
Remove all items from the inside
of the oven.
NOTE TO ELECTRICIAN: The power
leads supplied with this appliance
are UL recognized for connections
to larger gauge household wiring.
The insulation of these leads is
rated at temperatures much higher
than the temperature rating of
household wiring. The current
carrying capacity of a conductor
is governed by the wire gauge and
also the temperature rating of the
insulation around the wire.
Check that conduit is securely
connected to the junction box.
Turn on the power to the oven. (Refer
to your Owner’s Manual.) Verify that
the bake and broil units, and all
cooking functions operate properly.
Check that the circuit breaker is not
tripped nor the house fuse blown.
NOTE: ALUMINUM WIRING
See your Owner’s Manual for
troubleshooting list.
A. WARNING: IMPROPER
CONNECTION OF ALUMINUM
HOUSE WIRING TO THE COPPER
LEADS CAN RESULT IN AN
ELECTRICAL HAZARD OR FIRE.
B. Splice copper wires to aluminum
wiring using special connectors
designed and UL approved for
joining copper to aluminum,
and follow the manufacturer’s
recommended connector
procedure closely.
NOTE: Wire used, location and
enclosure of splices, etc., must
conform to good wiring practice
and local codes.
