3 ELECTRICAL GROUNDING
INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. This oven is equipped with
a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. It must
be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and
local codes and ordinances. In the event of an electrical short
circuit, grounding reduces risk of electric shock by providing an
escape wire for the electric current.
WARNING - Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a
risk of electric shock.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
The oven is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug. DO NOT
UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES CUT OR REMOVE THE
GROUNDING PIN FROM
THE PLUG. DO NOT USE
EXTENSION CORD.
The Power Supply Cord and
plug must be connected to a
separate 120 Volt AC, 60 Hz,
15 Amp, or more branch circuit,
single grounded receptacle. The
receptacle should be located
inside the cabinet directly above
the Microwave Oven mounting
location as shown in Figure 2.
NOTES:
1. If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical
instructions, consult a qualified electrician or serviceperson.
2. Neither Electrolux nor the dealer can accept any liability for
damage to the oven or personal injury resulting from failure to
observe the correct electrical connection procedures.

RADIO OR TV INTERFERENCE
Should there be any interference caused by the microwave oven
to your radio or TV, check that the microwave oven is on a different
electrical circuit, relocate the radio or TV as far away from the oven
as feasible or check position and signal of receiving antenna.
4 HOOD EXHAUST DUCT
When the hood is vented to the outside, a hood exhaust duct is
required. All ductwork must be metal; absolutely do not use plastic
duct. Check that all connections are made securely. Please read
the following carefully:
Exhaust connection: The hood exhaust has been designed to
connect to a standard 3 Z\v" x 10" rectangular duct. If round duct is
required, a rectangular-to-round adapter must be used.
Rear exhaust: If a rear or horizontal exhaust is to be used, care
should be taken to align the exhaust with the space between the
studs, or wall should be prepared at the time it is constructed
by leaving enough space between wall studs to accommodate
exhaust.
Maximum duct length: For satisfactory air movement, the total
duct length of 3 Z\v" x 10" rectangular or 6" diameter round duct
should not exceed 140 feet.
Elbows, adapters, wall caps, roof caps, etc. present additional
resistance to air flow and are equivalent to a section of straight duct
which is longer than their actual physical size. When calculating
the total length, add the equivalent lengths of all transitions and
adapters plus the length of all straight duct sections. Figure 3
shows the approximate feet of equivalent length of some typical
ductwork parts. Use the values in parentheses for calculating air
flow resistance equivalent, which should total less than 140 feet.
