PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE

MICROWAVE ENERGY

1.

Do not attempt to operate this microwave oven with
the door open.
An open door operation can result in
harmful exposure to microwave energy. It is important not
to defeat or tamper with the safety interlocks.

2.

Do not place any object between the oven front face
and the door. Do not
allow soil or cleaner residue to
accumulate on sealing surfaces.

3.

Do not operate the oven if it is damaged in any
way.
It is particularly important that the oven door
closes properly and that there is no damage to the:
-

Door (bent)

-

Hinges and or latches (broken or loosened)

-

Door seals or sealing surfaces (damaged or
cracked)

4.

The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by
anyone except a properly qualified service
technician.

This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides
a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This
appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding
plug. The plug must be inserted into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

WARNING:

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor

can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult with a qualified electrician or service

person if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the
plug provided with the appliance - if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician.
This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a grounding attachment plug
that looks like the plug illustrated at right. Make sure that the appliance is connected to an
outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No adaptor should be used with this
appliance.

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 should be equal to or greater than the electrical
rating of the appliance.

OR

2.

Do not use an extension cord. If the power cord is too
short, have a qualified electrician or serviceman install
an outlet near the appliance.

Please 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.

Extension cords may be used is 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.
