FOUR-CONDUCTOR BRANCH CIRCUIT CONNECTION
NOTE: If residence leads are aluminum conductors, see WARNING in Section 5, Electrical
Requirements.
When connecting to a four-conductor branch circuit, if local
codes permit:
A. Free the neutral (white) lead from being restrained to any
other wires. If necessary, cut the neutral (white) lead and
then re-strip it to expose the proper length of conductor.
B. Attach the appliance grounding lead (green or bare copper)
in accordance with local codes.
C. Connect the oven neutral (white) lead to the branch circuit
neutral (white or gray) in accordance with local codes, using
a wire nut.
D. Connect the oven red lead to the branch circuit red lead and
the oven black lead to the branch circuit black lead in ac cor-
dance with local codes, using wire nuts.
E. Install proper strain relief clamp.
F. Install junction box cover.

SLIDE OVEN INTO OPENING
A. Loop (do not tie) a 36" (91 cm) string around the conduit before the oven is slid into place.
This will keep the conduit from falling behind the oven.
B. Lift oven into cabinet cutout
using the oven opening as a
grip. Carefully push against
oven front frame. Do not push
against outside edges.
C. As you slide the oven back, pull
the string so that the conduit
will lie on top of the oven in a
natural loop. For a combination
oven, pull the conduit so that
it sits above the lower oven on
the left side (as viewed from
the front).
D. When you are sure the conduit
is out of the way, slide the oven
¾ way back into the opening.
Remove the string by pulling on
one end of the loop.

• Slide the oven the remaining way into
the opening so that the side flanges and
control panel are against the cabinet
frame. Make sure that the oven is
centered in the opening.
• Open the door, place a turntable tray in
the oven and make sure that the tray in
the unit is level.
• Drill pilot holes through the side flanges.
• Drive the color-matched screws into the
side flanges. It is recommended that the
screws be hand tightened.

INSTALL MOUNTING SCREWS (THERMAL OVENS)
WARNING
Mounting screws must be
used. Failure to do so could result in the oven
falling out of the cabinet, causing serious injury.
NOTE: During oven mounting step, ensure that
no damage is done to oven gasket which lines
the edge of oven cavity.
NOTE: Before drilling the pilot holes, make
sure the oven is pushed as far back into the
opening as it will go and is centered.
NOTE: If the cabinet is particle board, you
must use #8 x ¾" particle board screws. These
may be purchased at any hardware store.
A. Drill through the mounting holes (top and
bottom) of the side trim for the #8 mounting
screws provided.
B. Secure the oven cabinet with the screws
provided.
Some models have custom handles. Please follow the instructions with the handles for
proper installation.
