Installation Instructions
For personal safety, do not use an extension cord with the range. Remove the house fuse or open the circuit
breaker before starting the installation.
The range must receive the proper voltage and frequency and connect to an individual, properly grounded
branch circuit protected by a circuit breaker or fuse having amperage as specified on the rating plate (left-side
door trim). The range's power hookup should be done by a qualified electrician. After installation, have the
electrician show you where to turn off power to the range. Consult local utilities for applicable codes. Failure
to wire your oven per these codes could create a safety hazard. If there are no such codes, your range must be
wired and fused per the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70–Latest Edition. For a copy, write: National

Effective Jan. 1, 1996, the National Electrical Code requires that new construction use a 4- conductor
connection to an electric range. When installing an electric range in new construction, follow Steps 2 and
3 for 4-wire connection.
• A 3-wire or 4-wire, single-phase A.C. 240 Volt, 60 hertz electrical system is required. If the home electrical
service does not meet the above specifications, have a licensed electrician install an approved outlet.
• Use only a 3-conductor or a 4-conductor UL-listed range cord. These cords may be provided with ring termi-
nals on wire and a strain relief device.
• DOP36M86D* requires a range cord rated at 40 amps with 125/250 minimum volt range.
• DOP48M86D* requires a range cord rated at 50 amps with 125/250 minimum volt range.
•
Because range terminals are inaccessible when the range is in position, flexible conduit/cord must be used.
Removing the Oven Door, cont.
ALL NEW BRANCH-CIRCUIT CONSTRUCTION, MOBILE HOMES, RECREATIONAL VEHICLES, AND
INSTALLATIONS WHERE LOCAL CODES PROHIBIT GROUNDING THROUGH NEUTRAL, REQUIRE
A 4-CONDUCTOR UL-LISTED RANGE CORD.
3. Lift the oven door to about a 15° angle from verti-
cal.
4. With both hands, grasp the door just below the
handle, and pull up slightly.
5. On the bottom-right edge of the door, pull out the
wire connector, and disconnect the wires.
6. Lift the door away from the oven.
