3-prong grounding
It is the personal responsibility and obligation of
the customer to have a properly grounded and
correctly polarized 3-prong wall receptacle
installed by a qualified electrician.
Consult a qualified electrician if the grounding
instructions are not completely understood, or if
doubt exists as to whether the appliance is
properly grounded.
It is not recommended to use an exten-
sion cord with your microwave oven, but if
you find it necessary to do so temporarily
(until a properly grounded and polarized
3-prong receptacle is installed), use only a
heavy duty CSA approved 3-wire grounding
type extension cord containing three 16-
gauge (minimum) copper wires. It must not
be longer than 3 m (10 feet) (cords longer than
3 m [I 0 feet] may affect the cooking perfor-
mance of your microwave oven). The plug on
the extension cord must fit into a 3-prong
grounding type wall receptacle (as shown on
this page) and the receptacle end of the
extension cord must accept the 3-prong
grounding plug of the microwave oven.
To test the oven, plug it into the
proper electrical outlet. Put about
250 mL (1 cup) of cold water in
a glass container in the oven.
Close the door. Make sure it latches. Follow
the directions on page 13 to set the oven to
cook for 2 minutes. When the time is up, the
water should be heated.

the household only and must not be used
for commercial purposes.
