Based on the serial number, it was manufactured in either 1970 or 1982, in August of whichever year. I think 1982 is more likely, as the toekick panel is white to match the rest of the cabinet, and previous to around 1971it was black. In 1970, most models had pushbutton surface unit controls, rather than knobs like yours.

It would have to be 1970 as it has two grounded convenience outlets. These were omitted after 1975.

Thanks Lawrence, I didn't catch that. Was 1970 the first year with matching toe panel?

It appears that the toe panel did change from black to white in 1970. My information doesn't include anything on the 40" ranges but does show the 30" version of this stove. For those (J339) models, in 1970 the surface unit controls changed from 5-heat pushbuttons to infinite heat rotary controls.

I ran into the same problem with a GE oven from 1966. I contacted GE and learned that Haier had purged all of the information associated with their vintage models following its acquisition.
