Frequently Asked Questions - FCFE3062BK FRIGIDAIRE

How to install the anti-tip bracket?

The anti-tip bracket must be fixed to the wall or floor using the provided screws. Use the template to position the holes, drill pilot holes of 3 mm (1/8") in wood or 4 mm (5/32") in concrete, then screw in the bracket. Make sure the rear leveling leg of the range fits into the bracket after installation.

How to level the range?

Use a wrench to adjust the four leveling legs. Check with a spirit level. Leave at least 3 mm (1/8") gap between the bottom of the range and the leg to allow insertion into the anti-tip bracket.

What type of electrical connection is needed?

The appliance requires a 240 V supply with a 40 or 50 A circuit breaker. It can be connected with a power cord (3 or 4 wires) or by permanent wiring. Follow local codes and use a cord kit suitable for the power rating (see the rating plate).

How to connect a 4-wire power cord?

Disconnect the factory ground strap by removing the screw and ground plate. Connect the L1 (black), L2 (red), neutral (white) wires to the terminal block, and the green ground wire to the chassis with the ground screw. Install the cable clamp and replace the cover.

Can I use a 3-wire power cord?

Yes, for existing installations only. In this case, the factory ground strap (connecting neutral to chassis) must remain in place. Connect the L1, L2, and neutral wires to the terminal block. Make sure the cable clamp is properly installed.

Where is the rating plate located?

The rating plate is located on the front of the appliance, visible when the oven door is open. It indicates the model number, serial number, power rating, and voltage.

How to clean the range?

Refer to the Use and Care Guide for detailed instructions. In general, use a damp cloth and mild detergent for surfaces. Avoid abrasives. For deeper cleaning, you can remove the range by disconnecting power and pulling it slightly forward after lifting the front.

What to do if the range tips?

Check that the anti-tip bracket is properly installed and the rear leg is engaged. Do not operate the range without the bracket. If tipping persists, contact a qualified installer.

How to remove the range for servicing?

Disconnect the power supply. If the plug is inaccessible, slightly lift the front and pull the range just enough to unplug. Remove it completely for cleaning or maintenance. Watch out for the power cord.

What are the minimum clearance dimensions?

A minimum clearance of 76.2 cm (30") is required between the cooking surface and an unprotected cabinet. Reduced to 61 cm (24") if a fire-resistant panel is installed. Leave 0" clearance at the rear. Side cabinets must be at least 5" (127 mm) above the burners.

3. Anti-Tip Bracket Installation Instructions

A WARNING To reduce the risk of tipping of the range, the range should be secured to the floor by properly installed anti-tip bracket and screws packed with the range. Failure to install the anti-tip bracket will allow the range to tip over if excessive weight is placed on an open door or if a child climbs upon it. Serious injury might result from spilled hot liquids or from the range itself.

If range is ever moved to a different location, the anti-tip brackets must also be moved and installed with the range.

Instructions are provided for installation in wood or cement fastened to either the floor or wall. When installed to the wall, make sure that screws completely penetrate dry wall and are secured in wood or metal. When fastening to the floor or wall, be sure that screws do not penetrate electrical wiring or plumbing.

A. Locate the Bracket Using the Template - (Bracket may be located on either the left or right side of the range. Use the information below to locate the bracket if template is not available). Mark the floor or wall where left or right side of the range will be located. If rear of range is against the wall or no further than 1-13/16" (46 mm) from wall when installed, you may use the wall or floor mount method. If molding is installed and does not allow the bracket to fit flush against the wall, remove molding or mount bracket to the floor. For wall mount, locate the bracket by placing the back edge of the template against the rear wall and the side edge of template on the mark made referencing the side of the range. Place bracket on top of template and mark location of the screw holes in wall.

If rear of range is further than 1-13/16" (46 mm) from the wall when installed, attach bracket to the floor. For floor mount, locate the bracket by placing back edge of the template where the rear of the range will be located. Mark the location of the screw holes, shown in template.

TEMPLATE

B. Drill Pilot Holes and Fasten Bracket - Drill a 1/8" (3 mm) pilot hole where screws are to be located. If bracket is to be mounted to the wall, drill pilot hole at an approximate 20° downward angle. If bracket is to be mounted to masonry or ceramic floors, drill a 5/32" (4 mm) pilot hole 1-3/4" (44 mm) deep. The screws provided may be used in wood or concrete material. Use a 5/16" (8 mm) nut-driver or flat head screwdriver to secure the bracket in place.

3-Wire and 4-Wire Permanent Connection

This appliance may be connected by means of permanent wiring.

When installing permanent wiring, do not leave excess wire in range compartment. Excess wire in the range compartment may not allow the rear access cover to be replaced properly and could create a potential electrical hazard if wires become pinched. Connect only as instructed. When using flexible conduit or range cable use flex connector or range cable strain relief.

1. Strip insulation away from the ends of the permanent wiring for Line 1, Line 2, Neutral (also strip ground wire on 4-Wire Connections). Tighten all wire leads to the terminal block (Follow wire locations shown in Fig. 16). IMPORTANT NOTE: DO NOT LOOSEN the factory installed nut connections which secure the range wiring to the terminal block. Electrical failure or loss of electrical connection may occur if these nuts are loosened or removed.
2. (4-Wire Permanent Connection ONLY) Disconnect the ground strap. Remove the factory installed ground screw and plate to release the factory installed copper ground strap from frame of the appliance. Cut and discard the copper strap from the terminal block. Keep the ground screw and ground plate.
3. (4-Wire Permanent Connection ONLY) Connect the ground wire lead (Green) to the frame of the appliance using the ground screw & plate as shown in Fig. 17. Be sure to install using the same hole in the frame where the ground screw was originally installed.
4. Follow the manufacturer's installation instructions supplied with the strain relief and install.
5. Make sure all connections are tightened securely and replace the rear access cover.

NOTE: Non-terminated field wire compression connections must be set at 22 in./lbs. or greater. Always use 10 gauge wire or larger.
