WARNING
!
To avoid risk of electrical shock
or death, this oven must be
grounded and plug must not be
altered.
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.
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.
Unpacking Oven
Inspect oven for damage such as dents in door or inside oven cavity.
Report any dents or breakage to source of purchase immediately.
Do not attempt to use oven if damaged.
Remove all materials from oven interior.
If oven has been stored in extremely cold area, wait a few hours before
connecting power.
Radio Interference
Microwave operation may cause interference to radio, television, or a similar
oven. Reduce or eliminate interference by doing the following:
Clean door and sealing surfaces of oven according to instructions in
Care and Cleaning
section.
Place radio, television, etc. as far as possible from oven.
Use a properly installed antenna on radio, television, etc. to obtain
stronger signal reception.
Oven Placement
Do not install oven next to or above source of heat, such as pizza oven
or deep fat fryer. This could cause microwave oven to operate
improperly and could shorten life of electrical parts.
Allow enough room for air movement around oven.
Install oven on level countertop surface.
Outlet should be located so that plug is accessible when oven is in place.
AAllow at least 4 of clearance around top and sides of oven. Proper air flow around
oven cools electrical components. With restricted air flow, oven may not operate
properly and life of electrical parts is reduced.
BInstall combination oven so oven bottom is at least 3 feet (36 inches) above floor.
