Front PalletTo avoid damaging the oven vent, support the oven bottom from either side when moving to the installation site. Leave the unit attached to the pallet until it is at the cabinet cutout, ready to be lifted into place.

WARNING
MOVING HAZARD
To avoid risk of severe personal injury; this appliance requires two or more people while handling and moving. Use of appliance moving devices is recommended.

DANGER
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
To avoid risk of electrical shock, personal injury, or death; verify your appliance is grounded according to local codes or in their absence, with the National Electrical Code (NEC). ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition.
Electrical Code Standards
If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, a qualified electrical installer should confirm that the ground path and wire gauge comply with local codes. Check with a qualified electrical installer if you are unsure the oven is properly grounded. The oven must be connected to a grounded-metal, permanent wiring system. Ensure the electrical connection and wire size are adequate and comply with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition or CSA Standards C22.1-94, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 and C22.2 No. O-M91-latest edition, and all local codes. A copy of these code standards can be obtained from:

Quincy, MA 02169-7471
CSA International
OR 8501 East Pleasant Valley Road
Cleveland, OH 44131-5575
WARNING
- Follow the information in this manual precisely to avoid fire or electrical shock that may cause property damage, personal injury, or death.
- Save this manual for the local electrical inspector's use.
- Ensure the oven is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician.
- New branch-circuit installations (1996 NEC), mobile homes, RVs, 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 is an electrical or fire risk. Use only connectors designed for joining copper to aluminum, and follow the manufacturer's recommended procedure closely.
- Mounting screws must be used to keep the oven from falling out of the cabinet and causing property damage and serious injury.
CAUTION
- Cabinets and wall coverings around the oven must withstand the oven's heat (up to 194 °F [90 °C]); otherwise, discoloration, delamination, or melting may occur.
- DO NOT remove the spacers on the oven's side walls. The spacers center the oven in the cutout to prevent excess heat buildup that may result in heat damage or fire.
IMPORTANT NOTE
The installer shall ensure proper installation. Product failure due to improper installation is NOT covered under warranty.
WARNING
DO NOT let anyone climb, sit, stand, or hang on the oven door. The door could break free, causing property damage and personal injury.
WARNING
Electricity must be off while the electrical connections are made to prevent severe personal injury or death.
IMPORTANT NOTE
- Observe all governing ordinances.
- Do not block oven vents (bottom-front of the oven) or leave combustible or heat-sensitive items in front of them.
Installation requirements
Prepare to install the oven
Tools you will need

Phillips Screwdriver Drill

Included accessories

8 mounting screws (M4 L16) (6 screws for installation, 2 extras)

Install Handle
Needed Items

Junction Box Wire Nuts


^3/_4 " Conduit Connector
Checklist
Review these items to verify proper installation:
- Before installation, read this manual thoroughly to familiarize yourself with the installation process.
- Verify the cabinet dimensions are correct and the required electrical connections are present.
- To lift the oven, hang the install handles on the oven's sides.
- Move the oven into place in front of the cabinet cutout, leaving the bottom packaging on the oven to avoid floor damage.
- Detach the oven from the pallet, and carefully team-lift the oven into the cutout.
- Ensure the electrical conduit reaches to the connection point properly.
- Slide the unit fully into place, while routing the electrical conduit correctly.
- With a Phillips screwdriver and supplied screws, anchor the oven to the cabinetry.
- Ensure that all installation procedures are followed as instructed.
- All product literature and accessories are included with the oven.
Location requirements
IMPORTANT: Observe all governing ordinances.
- Specified cabinet-opening dimensions are minimums and must be followed.
- Cabinet recess must enclose all but the oven face.
- Grounded electrical supply is required. (See Electrical connection.)
- Locate the junction box no more than 3" (7.6 cm) below the support platform. Drill a minimum 1" (2.5 cm) diameter hole in the right- or left-rear corner of the platform for easy power-plug access to the junction box.
- The support platform must be solid, level, flush with base of the cabinet cutout, and able to support 287 lb (130 kg).
• Install the oven at least 12" (30 cm) from other appliances.
IMPORTANT: Consult your builder or cabinet supplier to ensure the materials used will not discolor, delaminate, or be otherwise damaged. This oven complies with UL and CSA International requirements and with the maximum allowable wood-cabinet temperature of 194 °F (90 °C).

Electrical Connection

text_image
Rating plateTo properly install your oven, select an electrical connection type, and follow the manual's corresponding directions.
Connect the oven to the electrical voltage and frequency shown on the rating plate. (See left for location.)
A circuit breaker is recommended.
This chart will help you decide the minimum recommended dedicated circuit protection:
| KW Rating (240 V) KW Rating (208 V) | Recommended Circuit Size (Dedicated) | |
| ≤4.8 KW ≤4.1 KW 20 Amp | ||
| 4.9 KW - 7.5 KW 4.3 KW | 6.2 KW 30 Amp | |
| 7.3 KW - 9.6 KW 6.3 KW | 8.3 KW 40 Amp | |
| 9.7 KW - 12.0 KW 8.4 KW | - 10.4 KW 50 Amp | |
- Connect directly to the circuit-breaker box (or fused disconnect) via the flexible, armored or nonmetallic sheathed, copper cable with grounding wire. (See Electrical connection, pg. 9).
- Connect the oven's flexible conduit directly to the junction box.
- Fuse both sides of the line.
- Do not cut the conduit. The conduit length lets the oven be pulled out for service without disconnecting the conduit.
- A UL-listed or CSA-approved conduit connector must be provided.
- If the house has aluminum wiring: Connect a section of solid copper wire to the ends of the conduit leads, and connect the aluminum wiring to the added section of copper wire using special connectors/tools designed and UL-listed for joining copper to aluminum.
- Follow the connector manufacturer's recommended procedure. Aluminum/copper connection must comply with local codes and industry-accepted wiring practices.
