A. GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded. In the event
of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the
risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire
for the electric current. This appliance is equipped
with a cord having a grounding wire with a
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an
outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

WARNING

Improper grounding can result in a risk of electric
shock. Consult a qualified electrician if the
grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded, and either:

1. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use

only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade
grounding plug, and a 3-slot receptacle that will
accept the plug on the appliance. The marked
rating of the extension cord shall be equal to or
greater than the electrical rating of the
appliance, or

2. Do not use an extension cord. If the power

supply cord is too short, have a qualified
electrician or serviceman install an outlet near
the appliance.

NOTE:
1. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce

the risks resulting from becoming entangled in
or tripping over a longer cord.

2. Longer cord sets or extension cords are

available and may be used if care is exercised
in their use.

3. If a long cord or extension cord is used, (1) the

marked electrical rating of the cord set or
extension cord should be at least as great as
the electrical rating of the appliance, (2) the
extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire
cord, and (3) the longer cord should be
arranged so that it will not drape over the
countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on
by children or tripped over accidentally.

B. CIRCUITS

For safety purposes this oven must be plugged
into a 15 Amp circuit. No other electrical
appliances or lighting circuits should be on this
line. If in doubt, consult a licensed electrician.

C. VOLTAGE WARNING

The voltage used at the wall receptacle must be
the same as specified on the oven name plate
located on the back or on the side of the control
panel of the oven. Use of a higher voltage is
dangerous and may result in a fire or other type of
accident causing oven damage. Low voltage will
cause slow cooking. In case your microwave oven
does not perform normally in spite of proper
voltage, remove and reinsert the plug.

D. PLACEMENT OF THE OVEN

Your microwave oven can be placed easily in your
kitchen, family room, or anywhere else in your
home. Place the oven on a flat surface such as a
kitchen countertop or a specially designed
microwave oven cart. Do not place oven above a
gas or electric range. Free air flow around the
oven is important.

E. DO NOT BLOCK AIR VENTS

All air vents should be kept clear during cooking.
If air vents are covered during oven operation the
oven may overheat. In this case, a sensitive
thermal safety device automatically turns the oven
off. The oven will be inoperable until it has cooled
sufficiently.

F. RADIO INTERFERENCE

1. Microwave oven operation may interfere with

TV or radio reception.

2. When there is interference, it may be reduced

or eliminated by taking the following measures:

a. Clean the door and the sealing surfaces of

the oven.

b. Reorient the receiving antenna of radio or

television.

c. Relocate the microwave oven in relation to

the TV or radio.

d. Move the microwave oven away from the

receiver.

e. Plug the microwave oven into a different

outlet so that microwave oven and receiver
are on different branch circuits.
