Warning
  • DO NOT ground to a gas pipe.

  • DO NOT have a fuse in the neutral or grounding circuit.

  • A UL-listed conduit connector must be provided at the junction box.

  • The appliance must be hard wired (direct wired) into an approved junction box. A plug and receptacle is not permitted on these products.

  • DO NOT shorten the flexible conduit. The conduit connector must be securely attached to the junction box and the flexible conduit must be securely attached to the conduit connector. If the flexible conduit will not fit within the connector, do not install the oven until a connector of the proper size is obtained.

Note
  • The power leads supplied with the appliance are UL, CSA recognized for connection 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 the conductor is governed by the wire gauge and the temperature rating of the insulation around the wire.

  • You will need to purchase an appropriate conduit connector to complete the connection of the conduit to the junction box.
