Grounding Instructions
Oven MUST be grounded. Grounding
reduces risk of electric shock by
providing an escape wire for the
electric current if an electrical short
occurs. This oven 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. See Installation Instructions.
Consult a qualified electrician or servicer if grounding
instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists
as to whether the oven is properly grounded.
Do not use an extension cord. If the product power cord
is too short, have a qualified electrician install a three-slot
receptacle. This oven should be plugged into a separate
60 hertz circuit with the electrical rating as shown in
specifications table. When the combination oven is on a
circuit with other equipment, an increase in cooking times
may be required and fuses can be blown.
Microwave operates on standard household current,
110-120V.

Interference Statement
(U.S.A Only)
This equipment generates and uses ISM frequency energy
and if not installed and used properly, that is in strict
accordance with the manufacturer's instructions, may
cause interference to radio and television reception. It has
been type tested and found to comply with limits for ISM
Equipment pursuant to part 18 of FCC Rules, which are
designed to provide reasonable protection against such
interference in a residential installation.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does
cause interference to radio or television reception, which
can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one
or more of the following:
• Reorient the receiving antenna of the radio or television.
• Relocate the microwave oven with respect to the receiver.
• Move the microwave oven away from the receiver.
• Plug the microwave oven into a different outlet so that the
microwave oven and the receiver are on different branch
circuits.
The manufacturer is not responsible for any radio or TV
interference caused by unauthorized modification to this
microwave oven. It is the responsibility of the user to correct
such interference.
Precautions to Avoid Possible
Exposure to Excessive
Microwave Energy
A. DO NOT attempt to operate this oven with the door open
since open door operation can result in harmful exposure
to microwave energy. It is important not to defeat or
tamper with the safety interlocks.
B. DO NOT place any object between the oven front
face and the door to allow soil or cleaner residue to
accumulate on sealing surfaces.
C. DO NOT operate the oven if it is damaged. It is
particularly important that oven door close properly and
that there is no damage to:
1. door (bent),
2. hinges and latches (broken or loosened),
3. door seals and sealing surfaces.
D. Oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone
except properly qualified service personnel.
Important Safety Instructions
Liquids such as water, coffee, or tea are able to be overheated
beyond the boiling point without appearing to be boiling due
to surface tension of the liquid. Visible bubbling or boiling
when the container is removed from the microwave oven is
not always present. THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT
LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN A SPOON
OR OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.
To reduce the risk of injury to persons:
1. DO NOT overheat the liquid.
2. Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it.
3. DO NOT use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.
4. After heating, allow the container to stand in the
microwave oven for a short time before removing the
container.
5. Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil
into the container.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
To avoid risk of electrical shock or death, this oven must be
grounded and plug must not be altered.
