3 A DETERMINING WHEN TO USE THE PEDESTAL (30” DOUBLE OVENS ONLY)

WHEN TO USE THE PEDESTAL
When replacing an older GE Appliances 30” double wall oven with a new GE Appliances model.
Cutout height = 51-13/16” to 51-15/16”. This is our traditional cutout height.
WHEN NOT TO USE THE PEDESTAL
When replacing a 30” double wall oven from another manufacturer (ie. Whirlpool) with a new GE Appliances 30” double wall oven. Cutout height = 50-1/4”. You will need to verify that the existing cutout matches the 50-1/4” dimension.
If the new GE Appliances 30” double wall oven is being installed into new construction (ie. not a replacement), then the recommended installation is to use the Pedestal.
3 B PEDESTAL RAIL INSTALLATION (30” DOUBLE OVENS ONLY)

A. Position the pedestal rails with the top cutout toward the front of the opening and the flanges on the bottom, pointing toward the center. Locate each rail on the floor or cabinet runner, slightly inward from the side of the cabinet. Make sure the front of each rail is not protruding beyond the front of the cabinet opening.
B. Drill pilot holes and attach rails to runner or bottom of cabinet with provided hardware.

DOOR REMOVAL (RECOMMENDED FOR THERMAL OVENS)

WARNING
The door for the microwave oven on a combination oven should never be removed, unless by a certified technician.
NOTE: Door removal is not a requirement for installation of the product but is an added convenience.

To remove the door:
A. Open the oven door as far as it will go.
B. Remove hinge bracket, if equipped, from front frame and set aside. The hinge bracket must be replaced, if equipped, for proper door functionality when door is reinstalled.
C. Push both hinge locks down toward the door frame to the unlocked position. This may require a flat-blade screwdriver. DO NOT LIFT THE DOOR BY THE HANDLE!
D. Place hands on both sides of the door and close the oven door to the removal position (approximately 1”–2” [2.5 cm–5.1 cm] from the closed position).
E. Lift the door up and out until the hinge arms clear the slots. NOTE: The oven door is very heavy. Be sure you have a firm grip before lifting the oven door off the hinges. Use caution once the door is removed. Do not lay the door on its handle. This could cause dents or scratches.

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 Electrical 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.
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:

KW Rating 240V	KW Rating 208V	Recommended Circuit Size (Dedicated)
≤4.8 KW	≤4.1 KW	20 Amp
4.9 KW–7.2 KW	4.2 KW–6.2 KW	30 Amp
7.3 KW–9.6 KW	6.3 KW–8.3 KW	40 Amp
9.7 KW–12.0 KW	8.4 KW–10.4 KW	50 Amp

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 single oven, the platform must support 220 lbs. (99 kg); for a double or combination oven, the platform must support 400 lbs. (181 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**. Youwill need to purchase an appropriate strain relief clamp to complete the connection of the conduit to the junction box.

* Ovens come equipped with a 48” long conduit. If a longer conduit is desired, there may be one available for your model. To check availability or order parts, call GE Appliances at 1.800.GE.CARES.

THREE-CONDUCTOR BRANCH CIRCUIT CONNECTION

NOTE: If residence leads are aluminum conductors, see WARNING in Section 5, Electrical Requirements.
When connecting to a three-conductor branch circuit, if local codes permit:

A. Connect the oven ground conductor along with the neutral (white) lead to the branch circuit neutral (white or gray in color), using a wire nut.
B. Connect the oven red lead to the branch circuit red lead and the oven black lead to the branch circuit black lead in accordance with local codes, using wire nuts.
C. Install proper strain relief clamp.
D. Install junction box cover.

FOUR-CONDUCTOR BRANCH CIRCUIT CONNECTION

NOTE: If residence leads are aluminum conductors, see WARNING in Section 5, Electrical Requirements.
NOTE: If using a GFI breaker, the ground wire must be installed correctly to prevent breaker from tripping. Refer to latest edition of the NEC, NFPA No. 70, available from the National Fire Protection Association.
When connecting to a four-conductor branch circuit, if local codes permit:

A. Free the neutral (white) lead from being restrained to any other wires. If necessary, cut the neutral (white) lead and then re-strip it to expose the proper length of conductor.
B. Attach the appliance grounding lead (green or bare copper) in accordance with local codes.
C. Connect the oven neutral (white) lead to the branch circuit neutral (white or gray) in accordance with local codes, using a wire nut.
D. Connect the oven red lead to the branch circuit red lead and the oven black lead to the branch circuit black lead in ac cor dance with local codes, using wire nuts.
E. Install proper strain relief clamp.
F. Install junction box cover.

SLIDE OVEN INTO OPENING

A. Loop (do not tie) a 36” (91 cm) string around the conduit before the oven is slid into place.
This will keep the conduit from falling behind the oven.
B. Lift oven into cabinet cutout using the oven opening as a grip. Carefully push against oven front frame. Do not push against outside edges.
C. As you slide the oven back, pull the string so that the conduit will lie on top of the oven in a natural loop. For a combination oven, pull the conduit so that it sits above the lower oven on the left side (as viewed from the front).
D. When you are sure the conduit is out of the way, slide the oven ¾ way back into the opening. Remove the string by pulling on one end of the loop.

INSTALL MOUNTING SCREWS (THERMAL OVENS)

WARNING
Mounting screws must be used. Failure to do so could result in the oven falling out of the cabinet, causing serious injury.
NOTE: During oven mounting step, ensure that no damage is done to oven gasket which lines the edge of oven cavity.
NOTE: Before drilling the pilot holes, make sure the oven is pushed as far back into the opening as it will go and is centered.
NOTE: If the cabinet is particle board, you must use #8 x ¾” particle board screws. These may be purchased at any hardware store.
A. Drill through the mounting holes (top and bottom) of the side trim for the #8 mounting screws provided.
B. Secure the oven cabinet with the screws provided.

Some models have custom handles. Please follow the instructions with the handles for proper installation.

BOTTOM TRIM INSTALLATION

With oven installed, attach the bottom trim through its mounting holes in front vertical brace using two trim screws provided. Bottom trim lip must be placed under flange of bottom air duct.

IMPORTANT: If this unit is ever removed from the cabinet or the oven is ever pulled out for service, the bottom trim must be removed first or damage to the trim will occur.

OVEN RACK GUIDE INSTALLATION (IF APPLICABLE)

A. Locate included oven rack guide mouting hardware.
B. Place oven rack guides on cavity wall studs with metal posts towards back of cavity as shown.
C. Install guides using the 8 provided mounting nuts.
