IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
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
electric current.
This appliance is equipped with a power 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 service technician
if the grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded.
If the outlet is a standard 2-prong wall outlet, it is
your personal responsibility and obligation to
have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong
wall outlet.
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the
third (ground) prong from the power cord.
We do not recommend using an extension cord
with this appliance. If the power cord is too short,
have a qualified electrician or service technician
install an outlet near the appliance. (See EXTENSION
CORDS section.)
For best operation, plug this appliance into its
own electrical outlet to prevent flickering of lights,
blowing of fuse or tripping of circuit breaker.
WARNING!
WARNING: Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.
EXTENSION CORDS
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or
tripping over a longer cord.
Extension cords may be used if you are careful in using them.
If an extension cord is used—
The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating
of the appliance;
The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord and it must be plugged into a 3-slot outlet;
The extension cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop
where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
If you use an extension cord, the interior light may flicker and the blower sound may vary when the
microwave oven is on. Cooking times may be longer, too.
