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
electrical current. This appliance is equipped with a cord
that includes a grounding wire and a grounding plug.
The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded.
WARNING
WARNING
Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of
electric shock.
• Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet. Do not remove
the third (grounding) prong. Do not use an adaptor or
otherwise defeat the grounding plug.
• Consult a qualified electrician or service person if you
do not understand the grounding instructions or if you
are not sure if the appliance is properly grounded.
• We do not recommend using an extension cord with
this appliance. If the power-supply cord is too short,
have a qualified electrician or serviceman install an
outlet near the appliance. However, if it is necessary
to use an extension cord, read and follow the “Use of
Extension Cords” section below.
use of extension cords
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk
of your becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer
cord. Longer cord sets or extension cords are available
and you can use them if you exercise care. If you use a
long cord or extension cord:
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 it must be plugged into a 3-slot outlet.
3. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not
drape over the counter top or tabletop where it can be
pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally. If you
use an extension cord, the interior light may flicker and
the speed of the blower may vary when the microwave
oven is on. Cooking times may be longer too.

3 pronged outlet. Your oven should be the only
appliance connected to this circuit.
• Sharing a wall socket with other appliances, using
a power strip, or extending the power cord may
result in electric shock or fire.

electric shock or fire.
• Ensure that the voltage, frequency and current
provided match the product’s specifications.
Failing to do so may result in electric shock or fire.
Keep all packaging materials out of the reach of
children. Children may use them for play.
This appliance must be properly grounded. Read
and follow the specific “Grounding instructions”
found in the beginning of this Section. Do not ground
the appliance to a gas pipe, plastic water pipe, or
telephone line.
• This may result in electric shock, fire, an
explosion, or problems with the product
• Never plug the power cord into a socket that is
not grounded correctly and make sure that it is in
accordance with local and national codes.
Do not cut or remove the third (ground) prong from
the power cord under any circumstances.
Connect the oven to a 20A circuit. If you connect the
oven to a 15A circuit, make sure that circuit breaker
is operable.
Do not install this appliance in a humid, oily, or dusty
location, or in a location exposed to direct sunlight or
water (rain drops).
• This may result in electric shock or fire.
Plug the power plug into the wall socket firmly. Do
not use a damaged power plug, damaged power
cord, or loose wall socket.
• This may result in electric shock or fire.
Do not mount over a sink.
Do not pull or excessively bend the power cord.
Do not twist or tie the power cord.
Do not hook the power cord over a metal object,
place a heavy object on the power cord, insert the
power cord between objects, or push the power
cord into the space behind the appliance.
• This may result in electric shock or fire.
Do not pull the power cord when you unplug the
oven.
• Unplug the oven by pulling the plug only.
• Failing to do so may result in electric shock or fire.
When the power plug or power cord is damaged,
contact your nearest service center for a
replacement or repair.
CAUTION
INSTALLATION
CAUTIONS
Position the oven so that the plug is easily
accessible.
• Failing to do so may result in electric shock or fire
due to electric leakage.
Unplug the oven when it is not being used for long
periods of time or during a thunder/lightning storm.
• Failing to do so may result in electric shock or
fire.
WARNING
CRITICAL USAGE
WARNINGS
If the microwave appliance is flooded please contact
your nearest service center : Failing to do so may
result in electric shock or fire.
Read and follow the specific “Precautions to Avoid
Possible Exposure to Excessive Microwave Energy”,
found in the beginning of this Section.
If the microwave generates a strange noise, a
burning smell, or smoke, unplug it immediately and
contact your nearest service center.
• Failing to do so may result in electric shock or fire.
In the event of a gas leak (propane gas, LP gas,
etc.), ventilate the room immediately. Do not touch
the microwave, power cord, or plug.
• Do not use a ventilating fan.
• A spark may result in an explosion or fire.
Take care that the door or any of the other parts do
not come into contact with your body while cooking
or just after cooking.
• Failing to do so may result in burns.
In the event of a grease fire on the surface units
below the oven, smother the flaming pan on the
surface unit by covering the pan completely with a
lid, a cookie sheet or a flat tray.
Never leave surface units beneath your oven
unattended at high heat settings. Boil overs cause
smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite and
spread if the vent fan is operating. To minimize
automatic fan operation, use adequate sized
cookware and use high heat on surface units only
when necessary.
If materials inside the oven should ignite, keep the
oven door closed, turn the oven off, and disconnect
the power cord, or shut off power at the fuse or
circuit breaker panel. If the door is opened, the fire
may spread.
