120-volt, 60 Hertz, properly grounded branch
circuit protected by a 15-amp or 20-amp circuit
breaker or time delay filse.
Extension Cord Cautions
Because of potential satiety hazards associated
with certnin conditions, we strongly reconllnend
against the use of an extension cord, However,
if you still elect to use an extension cord, it is
absolutely necessary that it be a Ui,-listed,
3-wire grounding-type appliance extension cord
and that the current carrying rating of the cord
ill amperes be equi\:dent to, or greamr than,
the branch circuit rating.

A word about GFCI's - GFCI's are not required or
recommended for gas range receptacles.
(;round Fault Circuit ]nterruptei_ ((;F(3's) are
devices that sense leakage of current ill a circuit
and autonmticallv switch off power when a
threshold leakage level is detected. These devices
nmst be inanually reset by the consulnei: The
National Electrical Code requires the use of GF(3's
in kitchen receptacles installed to serve countertop
SUlthces. Perfbi_nlance of tile range will not be
affected t operated on a GF(3-protected circuit but
occasional nuisance tripping of the GFC] breaker
is possible.
[] UsageSituations where Appliance
Power Cordwill be Disconnected
Infrequently.
An adapter Inay be used only on a 15-amp circuit.
Do not rise an adapter on a 20-amp circuit. _]/ei'e
local codes pemfit, a TEMPORARY CONNECTION
may be made to a properly grotmded two-prong
wall receptacle by the use ofa UiAisted adaptei;
a\_filable at most hardware stores. The laxger slot in
the adapter must be aligned with the lalger slot in
tile wall receptacle to provide proper polali_, ill the
connection of the power cord.

The power cord oI this appliance is equipped with
a three-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a
standard three-prong grotmding wall receptacle to
minimize the possibility ot electric shock hazard
fi'om this appliance.
The customer should have the wall receptacle and
circuit checked by a qualified electrician to Inake
sure the receptacle is properly grounded,
X_]_eI'e a standard two-prong wall receptacle is
encountered, it is the pei_onal responsibili V and
obligation of the custolner to have it replaced with
a properly grounded thx'ee-px'oxlg wall receptacle.

CAUTlON_Attaching the adapter
ground ternlinal m the wall receptacle cover
screw does not ground the appliance unless the
cover screw is inetal, and not insulated, and the
wall receptacle is grounded through the house
wiring. The customer should have the circuit
checked bv a qualified electrician to inake sure
the receptacle is properly grounded.
_l_en disconnecting the power cord flx_i/l the
adaptei; always hold the adapter with one hand.
If this is not done, the adapter ground temfinal is
very likely to break with repeated use. Should this
happen, DO NOT USE the appliance until a proper
ground has again been established.
