CAUTION: For personal safety, do not
use an extension cord with this appli-
ance. Remove house fuse or open cir-

We recommend you have the electrical wiring and
hookup of your range connected by a qualified electri-
cian. After installation, have the electrician show you
where your main range disconnect is located.
Check with your local utilities for electrical codes which
apply in your area. Failure to wire your oven according
to governing codes could result in a hazardous condi-
tion. If there are no local codes, your range must be
wired and fused to meet the requirements of the Cana-
dian Electrical Code, Part 1 Latest Edition.
This appliance must be supplied with the proper volt-

frame. (See below pictures).
Effective January 1, 1996, the National Electrical Code

nect to aluminum wiring, properly installed connectors
approved for use with aluminum wiring must be used.
If the electrical service provided does not meet the
above specifications, have a licensed electrician install
an approved outlet.
