Recommended grounding method
For your personal safety, this appliance must be
grounded. This appliance is equipped with a
power supply cord having a 3-prong grounding
plug. To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord
must be plugged into a mating 3-prong ground-
ing type wall receptacle which is correctly polar-
ized and grounded in accordance with the
National Electrical Code and local codes and
ordinances. If a mating wall receptacle is not avail-
able, it is the personal responsibility and
obligation of the customer to have a properly
polarized and grounded J-prong wall recep-
tacle installed by a qualified electrician.

Plug the oven into the proper
electrical outlet and put about one
cup (250 ml] of cold water in a glass container
in the oven. Close the door. Make sure it latches.
Follow the directions on page 10 to set the oven
to COOK for 2 minutes. When the time is up, the
water should be heated.
9. Alternate grounding method
If changing and properly grounding the wall
receptacle is impossible and where local codes
permit [consult your electrical inspector], a
temporary adapter may be plugged into the
existing 2-prong wall receptacle to mate with the
3-prong power supply cord. THIS, HOWEVER, IS
NOT RECOMMENDED.
If this is done, you must connect the grounding
eyelet on the adapter to the wall receptacle cov-
erplate screw and from this same screw, you must
connect a separate copper ground wire (No.16
minimum) to a grounded cold water pipe?
Do not ground t,o a gas supply pipe. Do not
connect to electrical supply until appliance is
permanently grounded.
*Cold water pipe must have metal continuity to
electrical ground and not be interrupted by plas-
tic, rubber or other electrically insulating connec-
tors (including water meter or pump] without
adding a jumper wire at these connections.
