WARNING
IMPROPER USE OF THE GROUNDING PLUG CAN RESULT
IN A RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK OR DEATH.
This oven 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 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. DO
NOT use a two-prong adapter.
Consult a qualified electrician or servicer if the 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 the appropriate drawing at left. When a microwave
oven is on a circuit with other appliances, an increase in cooking
times may be required and fuses can be blown.
DO NOT UNDER ANY
CIRCUMSTANCES CUT OR
REMOVE THE ROUND
GROUNDING PRONG FROM
THE PLUG OR BEND THE
POWER PRONGS TO FIT A
RECEPTACLE OTHER THAN
THE ONE SHOWN FOR YOUR
OVEN. SUCH ABUSE OF THE
PLUG CAN RESULT IN
ELECTRICAL SHOCKS OR
OVERHEATING.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
Installation
Unpacking Oven
Remove all materials from oven interior.
Inspect microwave oven for damage such as
dents in door or dents inside oven cavity.
Report any dents or breakage to source of
purchase immediately. Do not attempt to use oven
if damaged.
If oven has been stored in extremely cold area,
wait a few hours before plugging in.
Oven Placement
Do not install microwave oven next to or above
source of heat, such as an range or deep fat fryer.
This could cause microwave oven to operate
improperly and could shorten life of electrical
parts.
Allow air flow around oven. At least 1 inch of
clearance is required at top and sides of
microwave oven to provide proper ventilation.
With restricted air flow, oven does not operate
properly and life of electrical parts will shorten.

Microwave operation may cause interference to radio,
television, or similar equipment. Reduce or eliminate
interference by doing following:
Clean door according to door cleaning
instructions in Care and Cleaning section of
manual under General Cleaning.
Place radio, television, etc. as far as possible
from oven.
Use a properly installed antenna on radio,
television, etc. to obtain stronger signal reception.
