InstallatIon Manual  
To reduce the risk of tipping the range, it must  
be secured by properly installed Anti-Tip bracket packed with  
the range.  
IMPoRtant notEs to thE InstallER  
Read all of the Installation Manual before installing the range.  
• Remove all packing material from the oven and drawer before  
connecting the electrical supply to the range.  
• This range must be electrically grounded in accordance with  
local codes, or in their absence, with the National Electrical  
Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70—latest edition in United States.  
• Observe all governing codes and ordinances.  
• Be sure to leave these instructions with the consumer.  
• The installation of ranges designed for manufactured (mobile)  
home installation must conform with Manufactured Home  
Construction and Safety Standard, title 24CFR, part 3280  
[Formerly the Federal Standard for Mobile Home Construction  
and Safety, title 24, HUD (part 280)] or when such standard  
is not applicable, the Standard for Manufactured Home  
Installation 1982 (Manufactured Home Sites, Communities  
and Setups), ANSI Z225. 1/NFPA 501A- latest edition, or with  
local codes in United States.  
IMPoRtant notEs to thE ConsuMER  
Keep this manual with your Operation Manual for future reference.  
• As when using any range generating heat, there are certain  
safety precautions you should follow. These are listed in the  
Operation Manual. Read all and follow carefully.  
• Be sure your range is installed and grounded properly by a  
qualified installer or service technician.  
• Make sure the wall coverings and the cabinets around the range  
can withstand the heat generated by the range.  
Before installing the range in an area covered with  
linoleum or any other synthetic floor covering, make sure  
the floor covering can withstand heat at least 90˚F (32.2˚C)  
above room temperature without shrinking, warping or  
discoloring. Do not install the range over carpeting unless

or loose drawer guides and dents inside the drawer or on the  
front side of the drawer. If there is any damage, do not operate  
the Microwave Drawer and contact your dealer or a SHARP  
AUTHORIZED SERVICER.  
Do not store items of interest to children in the cabinets  
above the range. Children could be seriously burned climbing  
on the range to reach items.  
• To eliminate the need to reach over the cooktop, cabinet storage  
space above the cooktop should be avoided.  
Do not use the oven as a storage space. This creates a  
potentially hazardous situation.

If the information in this manual is not followed  
exactly, a fire or electrical shock may result causing property damage,  
personal injury or death.  
Never use the range for warming or heating the room.

208/240 Volt ConneCtIon InstruCtIons  
ElECtRICal ConnECtIons  
The installer or consumer is responsible for connecting the power  
supply cord to the connection block located behind the back panel  
access cover.  
The range can be set for 208V or 240V. The voltage setting for your  
range is pre-set at 240V from the factory. Follow these steps to  
change the voltage setting.  
Locate the voltage switch on the lower back side of the range.  
Remove the screw and rotate the switch plate 180˚ as indicated  
in the Figure 4.  
This range may be connected by means of permanent “hard wiring”  
(flexible armored or nonmetallic shielded copper or aluminum cable),  
or by means of a power supply cord kit. Only a power supply cord kit  
rated at 240 volts or 208 volts and 50 amperes and marked for use  
with ranges shall be used. Cord must have either 3 or 4 conductors  
to match electric receptacle. The power cord kit is not included so  
must be purchased at an appliance store.  
Reinsert the switch plate and replace screw as indicated  
in Figure 5. The voltage setting is indicated by the visible  
marking.

For mobile homes, new installations, recreational vehicles or areas  
where local codes do not permit grounding through neutral, a 4 con-  
ductor power supply cord kit rated at 240 volts or 208 volts minimum,  
50 amperes and marked for use with ranges should be used.

Terminals on end of wires must be either closed loop or open-end  
spade lugs with upturned ends. Cord must have strain-relief clamp.

The range connection opening should be 1 /8-inches.  
Risk of fire or electrical shock exists if an  
incorrect size range cord kit is used, the installation instructions  
are not followed precisely or a strain relief clamp is not used.
