KitchenAid 27" Combination Wall Oven with Even-Heat™ True Convection (lower oven) Installation Guide

To properly install your oven, you must determine the type of 
electrical connection you will be using and follow the instructions 
provided for it here.

■

Oven must be connected to the proper electrical voltage, 
amperage, and frequency as specified on the model/serial/
rating plate. See the following illustration.

■

Models rated from 7.3 to 9.6 kW at 240 volts (5.4 to 7.4 kW at 
208 volts) require a separate 40-amp circuit. Models rated at 
4.8 kW and below at 240 volts (3.6 kW and below at 
208 volts) require a separate 30-amp circuit.

■

A circuit breaker is recommended.

■

Connect directly to the fused disconnect (or circuit breaker 
box) through flexible, armored or nonmetallic sheathed, 
copper cable (with grounding wire). See “Make Electrical 
Connection” section. 

■

Flexible conduit from the oven should be connected directly 
to the junction box.

■

Do not cut the conduit. The length of conduit provided is for 
serviceability of the oven.

■

A UL listed or CSA approved conduit connector must be 
provided.

■

If the house has aluminum wiring, follow the procedure 
below:

1. Connect a section of solid copper wire to the ends of the 

flexible conduit leads.

2. Connect the aluminum wiring to the added section of 

copper wire using special connectors and/or tools 
designed and UL listed for joining copper to aluminum.

Follow the electrical connector manufacturer's recommended 
procedure. Aluminum/copper connection must conform with 
local codes and industry accepted wiring practices.

For power requirements, refer to the following table.

*Amperage values noted above are for information purposes 

only: The units are rated in watts.

1. Decide on the final location for the oven. Locate existing 

wiring to avoid drilling into or severing wiring during 
installation. 

2. To avoid floor damage, set the oven onto cardboard prior to 

installation. Do not use handle or any portion of the front 
frame for lifting.

3. Remember to remove bottom vent from the foam packing on 

top of oven.

4. Remove the shipping materials and tape from the oven.

5. Remove the hardware package from inside the bag 

containing literature.

6. Remove and set aside racks and other parts from inside the 

oven.

7. Move oven and cardboard close to the oven’s final location.

IMPORTANT: Use two hands to remove oven door.

1. Prior to removing the oven door, prepare a surface where you 

will place it. This surface should be flat and covered with a 
soft blanket, or use the corner posts from your packaging 
material.

2. Open the oven door.

3. Locate the oven door hinge locks in both corners of the oven 

door, and then rotate the hinge locks toward the oven door to 
the unlocked position. If the door hinge lock is not rotated 
fully (see illustration B), the door will not remove properly.
