•A 120 volt, 60 Hz., AC only, 15-amp fused, electrical circuit is required. A time-
delay fuse or circuit breaker is also recommended. It is recommended that a
separate circuit serving only this range be provided.
•Electronic ignition systems operate within wide voltage limits, but proper
grounding and polarity are necessary. Check that the outlet provides 120-volt
power and is correctly grounded.
•This gas range is not required to be plugged into a GFCI (Ground-Fault Circuit
Interrupter) outlet. It is recommended that you not plug an electric spark
ignition gas range or any other major appliance into a GFCI wall outlet as it may
cause the GFCI to trip during normal cycling.

circuit. However, occasional nuisance tripping of the GFCI breaker is possible
due to the normal operating nature of electronic gas ranges.
•The wiring diagram is located on the back of the range in a clear plastic bag.
