This appliance requires a single-phase, 3 wire, A.C 120/208 V or 120/240 V 60 Hz electrical system. Use only a 3-conductor or a 4-conductor UL - listed cord with closed-loop terminals, open-end spade lugs with upturned ends or similar termination. Do not install the power cord without a strain relief.Appliance rating Watts 240 VPower consumptionProtection circuit recommended7800 W (WCES6428*, WCEP6427*)5800 W (WCEP6423*)50 A (WCES6428*, WCEP6427*)40 A (WCEP6423*)Do Not ground to a gas pipe.Do Not have a fuse in the neutral or grounding circuit.A U.L.-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.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.

Making Electrical Connections

New branch-circuit installations (1996 NEC), mobile homes, recreational vehicles, or installations where local codes prohibit grounding through the neutral conductor require 4-wire branch-circuit connection.Improper connection of aluminum house wiring to copper leads can result in an electrical hazard or fire. Use only connectors designed for joining copper to aluminum and follow the manufacturer’s recommended procedure closely.Turn off the circuit breaker or remove fuses to the oven branch circuit.With the oven positioned directly in front of the cabinet opening, connect the flexible conduit to the electrical junction box. 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.If local codes permit connection of the frame grounding conductor to the neutral (white) wire, follow the instructions for a 3-wire circuit connection.If used in mobile homes or new construction, or a recreational vehicle, or local codes do not permit connection of the frame grounding conductor to the neutral (white) wire, follow the instructions for a 4-wire circuit connection.The middle (neutral or ground) wire, which is white, of a 3-wire power cord or a 3-wire conduit has to be connected to the middle post of the main terminal block. The remaining two wires of the power cord or conduit have to be connected to the outside posts of the main terminal connection block. Failure to do so can result in electrical shock, severe personal injury or death.Cable from home power supplyBlack wiresWhite wiresRed wiresGreen (or bare) ground wires4-wire flexible conduit from ovenConnect the oven ground (green) wire and neutral (white) wire to the branch circuit neutral (white or gray) wire, using a wire nut.Connect the oven red wire to the branch circuit red (L2) wire in accordance with local codes, using a wire nut.Connect the oven black wire to the branch circuit black (L1) wire in accordance with local codes, using a wire nut.Install the junction box cover.Only use a 4-conductor power-supply cord kit rated 120/240 volts, 50 amperes and marked for use with ranges with closed-loop connectors or open spade lugs with upturned ends. The white middle (neutral) wire of the power cord or 4-wire conduit has to be connected to the middle post of the main terminal block. The other two wires of the power cord or conduit have to be connected to the outside posts of the main terminal connection block. The 4th ground wire (green) must be connected to the frame of the oven with the ground screw.

Installing Oven and Assembling Oven Doors and Bottom Decorative Trim

Install the oven into the cabinet as follows:Use caution when lifting the oven and wear gloves to protect hands from any sharp edges.Use two or more people to lift or move the oven into the cabinet opening.Loop (do not tie) a 36” (91 cm) string around the conduit before the oven is slid into place. Lay the string over the top of the oven and use it to keep the conduit from falling behind the oven.Lift oven into cabinet cutout using the oven opening as a grip. Carefully push against the oven front frame. Do not push against outside edges.While sliding the oven back, pull the string so that the conduit lies on the top of the oven in a natural loop.When you are sure the conduit is out of the way, slide the oven 3/4 way back into the opening. Remove the string by pulling on one end of the loop.Secure the oven.Using the mounting holes a on the oven side trim as a guide, drill pilot holes for screws provided. (For securing the oven, use a minimum of 4 screws, one on each side in both the upper and lower ovens.)Secure the oven to the cabinet with screws provided. If the cabinet is particle board, you must use 3/4” particle board screws. These may be purchased at any hardware store.Firmly grasp both sides of the door at the top.With the door at the same angle as the removal position, seat the indentation c of the hinge arms a into the bottom edge of the hinge slots b. The notch in the hinge arms must be fully seated into the bottom edge of the slots.Open the door fully. If the door will not open fully, the indentation is not seated correctly in the bottom edge of the slots.Lock the hinge locks d, rotating them back toward the slots in the oven frame until they lock.Close the oven door.Bottom vent trimWhen you install the oven door, be careful not to bump the bottom vent trim.Keep oven vents unobstructed. Replace the bottom vent trim if it becomes bent or deformed. Never block the vent with plastic or heat-sensitive items.Bottom decorative trimAfter installing the oven in the cabinet, assemble bottom decorative trim with 2 screws b (4X10).
