Install Strain Relief
Place strain relief in knockout below terminal block.
1. In the knockout panel below the terminal block, remove
the knockout that fits the strain relief that comes with
your range cord.
2. Feed the range cord through the hole and the strain
relief up to terminal block. Allow for slack in the cord
between the strain relief and terminal block.
3. Once the cord length/slack has been adjusted, attach
the strain relief per instructions included with strain
relief.
Tip: The knockout panel (below the terminal block) can be
removed from the range to install the strain relief. Remove
the panel from range, install strain relief in panel and
reattach. DO NOT remove entire range back panel.
Preparation for Power Connection
For installations where grounding through the neutral
conductor is prohibited: (a) disconnect the link from the
neutral, (b) use grounding terminal or lead to ground unit,
(c) connect neutral terminal to lead branch circuit neutral in
the usual manner. When the appliance is to be connected
by means of a cord kit, use 4-conductor cord for this
purpose.
Use only cord kits rated 125/250 volts, 40 amperes
(minimum), and labeled “For Use with Ranges”. Strain relief
provided with the cord must be installed per instructions
included with the cord.
Four-wire Range Cord Connection
(Recommended Method)
1. Disconnect electrical power at breaker box. Remove
the terminal block cover to expose the terminal block.
2. Remove the top nut (has an attached locking washer)
from each post.
Note: DO NOT remove the second nut/washer on each
post; these must stay in place to anchor the internal
wiring attached to the terminal block.
3. Remove screw from the bottom end of the ground
strap.
9 WARNING
The strain relief provided with your range cord must
be properly installed. Strain reliefs vary. Carefully
read and follow the instructions included with your
strain relief.
9 WARNING
Risk of Electric Shock or Fire. Grounding through
the neutral conductor is prohibited for new branch-
circuit installations (1996 NEC), mobile homes, and
recreational vehicles, or in an area where local
codes prohibit grounding through the neutral
conductor.

9 WARNING
To prevent electrical shock, the grounding prong on
the range cord should not be cut or removed under
any circumstances. It must be plugged into a
matching grounding type receptacle and connected
to a correctly polarized 240-Volt circuit. If there is
any doubt as to whether the wall receptacle is
properly grounded, have it checked by a qualified
electrician.
