GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING - IMPROPER USE OF THE GROUNDING
PLUG CAN RESULT IN A RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK OR
DEATH.
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 electric current.
This appliance 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 serviceman if the grounding
instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists
as to whether the appliance 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 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.
120V-15AMP
Power Supply Cord
• A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping
over a longer cord.
Microwave Power
Models ME96T and MW96T deliver 800 watts and models FE116T and FW116T deliver 900 watts of
microwave cooking power to the oven cavity.
Radio Interference
Microwave oven operation may cause interference to radio, TV, or similar equipment. To reduce or eliminate
interference:
• Clean door and sealing surfaces of oven. See "Care and Cleaning" instructions on page 26.
• Place radio, TV, etc. away from oven.
• Use properly installed antenna on radio, TV, etc. to obtain stronger signal reception.
