Grounding Instructions
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.
Consult a qualified electrician or servicer if grounding
instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt
exists as to whether the equipment 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 drawing. Oven requires a 120 supply voltage.
When a microwave oven is on a circuit with other
equipment, an increase in cooking times may be
required and fuses can be blown.
To avoid the risk of electrical shock or death, do not
alter the plug.
WARNING
To avoid the risk of electrical shock or death, this
oven must be grounded.
