Electrical Grounding Instructions
This indoor gas cooking appliance is equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug for your
protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded three-
pronged receptacle.
Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it is the responsibility and obligation of
the customer to have it replaced with a properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle.
Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from the power cord.
Before connecting plug to the cord, disconnect the electrical supply.
Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and
dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after servicing.

certified technician or plumber. These instructions are for a professional. Gas installation
specifications and regulations may vary so please consult your local codes before proceeding.
