Safety
Important Grounding
Instructions
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
electrical current. This appliance is equipped with a
cord that includes a grounding wire and a grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is
properly installed and grounded. Plug the three-prong
power cord into a properly grounded outlet of standard
115-120 voltage, 60 Hz. Your oven should be the only
appliance on this circuit.
WARNING
Improper use of the grounding plug can result in
a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified
electrician or servicer if you do not understand
the grounding instructions or if you are not sure
if the appliance is properly grounded.
Use of Extension Cords
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the
risk of becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer
cord. Extension cords may be used if care is exercised
in their use. If a Extension cord is used:
1. The extension cord should be at least as great as
the electrical rating of the appliance.
2. The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-
wire cord and it must be plugged into a 3-slot
outlet.
3. If you use an extension cord, the interior light may
flicker and the blower may vary when the
microwave oven is on. Cooking times may be
longer, too.
WARNING
Do not cut or remove the third (ground) prong
from the power cord under any circumstances.
