Examine Your Oven
Unpack the oven, remove all packing material, and
examine the oven for any damage such as dents,
broken door latches or cracks in the door. Notify
dealer immediately if oven is damaged. DO NOT
install if the oven is damaged.
Placement of Your Oven
1. Oven must be placed on a flat, stable surface.
For proper operation, the oven must have
sufficient air flow. Allow 8 cm (3") of space on
both sides of the oven and 15 cm (6") of space
on top of the oven.
a. DO NOT block air vents. If they are blocked
during operation, the oven may overheat. If
the oven overheats, a thermal safety device
will turn the oven off. The oven will remain
inoperable until it has cooled.
b. DO NOT place the oven near a hot, damp
surface such as a gas or electric range, or
dishwasher.
c. DO NOT operate the oven when room
humidity is too high.
2. This oven was manufactured for household use
only.
3. This oven may be built into a wall cabinet, if
desired, by using the proper trim kit, which may
be purchased from a local dealer.
Follow all installation instructions packed with kit.
(Trim Kit Model No. ☛ see page 15)
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
cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug.
The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is
properly installed and grounded.
WARNING Improper use of the grounding plug
can result in a risk of electric shock.
Consult a qualified electrician or service person if the
grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if it is uncertain whether the appliance
is properly grounded or not.
If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a
three-wire extension cord that has a three blade
grounding plug, and a three-slot receptacle that will
accept the plug on the appliance. The marked rating
of the extension cord should be equal to, or greater
than, the electrical rating of the appliance.
Fan Motor Operation
After using the oven the fan motor rotates to cool the
electric components. This is perfectly normal, and
you can take the food out of the oven while the fan
operates.
Wiring Requirements
1. The oven must be on a SEPARATE CIRCUIT.
No other appliance should share the circuit with
the microwave oven. If it does, the branch circuit
fuse may blow or the circuit breaker may trip, or
the food may cook slower than recommended in
this manual.
2. The VOLTAGE used must be the same as
specified on this microwave oven (120 V, 60 Hz).
Using a higher voltage is dangerous and may
result in a fire or other accident causing oven
damage. Using a lower voltage will cause slow
cooking. Panasonic is NOT responsible for
damage resulting from the use of the oven with
other than specified voltage.
3. The oven must be plugged into at least a 15
AMP, 120 VOLT, 60 Hz GROUNDED OUTLET.
Where a standard two-prong outlet is
encountered, it is the personal responsibility and
obligation of the consumer
to have it replaced with
a properly grounded
three-prong outlet.
Ceramic Tray
1. DO NOT operate the oven without the Roller
Ring and Ceramic Tray in place.
2. Only use the Ceramic Tray specifically designed
for this oven. Do not substitute any other
Ceramic Tray.
3. If the Ceramic Tray is hot, allow it to cool before
cleaning or placing it in the water.
4. DO NOT cook directly on the Ceramic Tray.
Always place food in a microwave-safe dish, or
on a rack set in a microwave-safe dish.
5. If food or utensils on the Ceramic Tray touch the
oven walls, causing the turntable to stop moving,
the turntable will automatically rotate in the
opposite direction. This is normal.
6. The Ceramic Tray can turn in either direction.
Roller Ring
1. The Roller Ring and oven floor should be
cleaned frequently to prevent excessive noise.
2. The Roller Ring must always be used with the
Ceramic Tray.
3. Always replace the Roller Ring and Ceramic Tray
in their proper positions.
Oven Racks
Use these racks for Bake, Broil or Combination
cooking to elevate food for proper heating.
May also be used during Microwave cooking. Arcing
may occur if a metal container is used. If this occurs,
stop the cooking, change the container and re-start
the program.
