is protected by not less than l/4" flame retardant

30" min. clearance between the top of the cooking
platform and the bottom of an unprotected wood or
metal cabinet.
Injury Hazard
To eliminate the risk of burns or fire, avoid
installing cabinet storage above the cooking
surface. If cabinets are already installed, reduce
the hazard of reaching over a heated cooking
surface by installing a range hood. The range
hood should extend a minimum of 5 inches
out from the bottom front of the cabinets.
Reaching over a heated cooking surface could
result in a serious burn.
Mobile home installation
The installation of this range must conform to the
Manufactured Home Construction and Safety
Standards, 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 Homes Installations (Manufactured
Home Sites, Communities and Setups), ANSI
A225.1/NFPA 501A, or with local codes*.
When this range is installed in a mobile home, it must
be secured to the floor during transit. Any method of
securing the range is adequate as long as it conforms
to the standards listed above.
Four-wire power supply cable must be used in a
mobile home installation. The appliance wiring will
need to be revised. See four-wire electrical
connection, Panel B.

Electrical Shock Hazard
Electrically ground range.
Failure to follow this instruction could result in
death, fire or electrical shock.
Tools needed for

If codes permit and a separate grounding wire is
used, it is recommended that a qualified electrician
determine that the grounding path is adequate.
Do Not ground to a gas pipe.
Check with a qualified electrician if you are not sure
range is grounded.
Do Not have a fuse in the neutral or grounding
circuit.
Only a power supply cord kit rated at 250 volts, 40
amperes and investigated for use with ranges should
be used.
Do Not plug the "pigtail" power cord into a live wall
receptacle before the cord is permanently connected
to the terminal block.
