DIRECT WIRE
⚠ WARNING: Electrical Shock Hazard
Disconnect power before servicing. Improper connection of aluminum house wiring and copper appliance leads can result in an electrical hazard or fire. If the home has aluminum wiring, only use connectors designed and UL listed for joining copper to aluminum and precisely follow the manufacturer's recommended procedure. Aluminum-to-Copper connections must conform with local codes.
- For Single Oven, use 10 gauge copper or aluminum wire.
- For Double Oven, use 8 gauge copper or aluminum wire.
- Electrically ground oven.
- Failure to do so could result in death, fire or electrical shock.
Be sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician. Ask your dealer to recommend a qualified technician or an authorized repair service.
This oven is manufactured with a neutral (white) power supply wire and a cabinet-connected green (or bare) ground wire twisted together.
After ensuring power is off, connect the flexible conduit from the oven to the junction box using a UL listed conduit connector. Refer to the following pages for wiring graphics and instructions. Your local codes and ordinances take precedence over these instructions. Complete electrical connections according to local codes and ordinances.
