Installation Instructions
30” French Door Built-in Wall Ovens
FOR YOUR SAFETY:
WARNING : Before beginning the installation, switch power off at the service panel
and lock the service disconnecting means to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When
the service disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such
as a tag, to the service panel.
Be sure the oven is securely installed in a cabinet that is firmly attached to the house structure.
Weight on the oven door could cause the oven to tip and result in injury. Never allow anyone to climb,
sit, stand or hang on the oven door.
Make sure the wall coverings, counters and cabinets around the oven can withstand the heat
(up to 200°F [93.3°C]) generated by the oven.

REMOVE PACKAGING MATERIALS
Failure to remove packaging materials could result in damage to the appliance. Remove all
packing parts from oven, racks and heating elements. Remove protective film and labels on
the outer door and control panel. Also, remove plastic on trims and panel, all tape around the
oven and any shipping screws securing the oven to the base pad. Open oven door and remove
literature pack and oven racks. Remove the bottom trim from the top of the oven. It will be
installed at the end of the installation process. The trim is wrapped separately and taped to the
top of the unit.
ATTENTION INSTALLER: All electric wall ovens must be hard-wired (direct-wired)
into an approved junction box. A plug and receptacle is NOT permitted on these products.

CUTOUT FOR INSTALLATION OVER A WARMING
DRAWER
NOTE: Install the oven only with specific models listed on the label located on top of the oven.
NOTE: Additional clearances between cutouts may be required. Check to be sure the oven
supports above the Warming Drawer location do not obstruct the required interior depth and
height.
When installing a Warming Drawer below a single or double oven, a separate 120V, 60 HZ,
properly grounded receptacle must be installed. Refer to installation instructions packed with
the Warming Drawer for specific installation requirements.

PREPARE THE OPENING
NOTE: If the cabinet does not have a solid bottom,
two braces or runners must be installed to support
the weight of the oven. For French Door ovens, the
runners and braces must support 220 lbs (98.8 kg).
NOTE: If marks, blemishes or the cutout opening are
visible above the installed oven, it may be necessary
to add wood shims under the runners and front trim
until the marks or opening are covered.
NOTE: If the cabinet does not have a front frame and
the sides are less than ¾” (1.9 cm) thick, shim both
sides equally to establish the cutout width.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
WARNING : This appliance must be properly grounded.
WARNING : To prevent fire or shock, do not use an extension cord with this
appliance.
WARNING : To prevent shock, remove house fuse or open circuit breaker before
beginning installation.
WARNING : Improper connection of aluminum house wiring to copper leads can
result in an electrical hazard or fire. Use only connectors designed for joining copper to aluminum and
follow the manufacturer’s recommended procedure closely.
We recommend you have the electrical wiring and hookup of your appliance connected by a qualified
electrician. After installation, have the electrician show you how to disconnect power from the
appliance.
You must use a single-phase, 120/208 VAC or 120/240 VAC, 60 Hertz electrical system. If you
connect to aluminum wiring, properly installed connectors approved for use with aluminum wiring must
be used.
Effective January 1, 1996, the National Elec trical Code requires that new construction (not existing)
utilize a four-conductor connection to an electric oven. When installing an electric oven in new
construction, a mobile home, recreational vehicle or an area where local codes prohibit grounding
through the neutral conductor, refer to the section on four-conductor branch circuit connections.
Check with your local utilities for electrical codes which apply in your area. Failure to wire your
oven according to governing codes could result in a hazardous condition. If there are no local
codes, your oven must be wired and fused to meet the National Electrical Code, NFPA No. 70 –
latest edition, available from the National Fire Protection Association.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS (CONT.)
This appliance must be supplied with the proper voltage and frequency and connected to an individual,
properly grounded branch circuit, protected by a circuit breaker or fuse. See the rating plate located on
the oven frame to determine the rating of the product.
Use the chart below to determine the minimum recommended dedicated circuit protection:
DO NOT shorten the flexible conduit. The conduit strain relief clamp must be securely attached to the
junction box and the flexible conduit must be securely attached to the clamp. If the flexible conduit will
not fit within the clamp, do not install the oven until a clamp of the proper size is obtained.
The 3 power leads supplied with this appliance are suitable for connection to heavier gauge household
wiring. The insulation of these 3 leads is rated for temperatures much higher than the temperature
rating of the household wiring. The current-carrying capacity of the conductor is governed by the wire
gauge and the temperature rating of the insulation around the wire.

MAKE ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
WARNING : Switch power off at the service panel and lock the service
disconnecting means to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When the service
disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag,
to the service panel.
Place oven on table or platform even with the cutout opening. For a French Door oven, the platform
must support 220 lbs. (98.8 kg). Connect the flexible conduit to the electrical junction box as shown
below*. Position the conduit in such a manner that it will lie behind the unit in a natural loop when
the oven is installed. You will need to purchase an appropriate strain relief clamp to complete the
connection of the conduit to the junction box.
* Ovens come equipped with a 40” long conduit. If a longer conduit is desired, there may be one
available for your model. To check availability or order parts, call 1.800.GE.CARES.
