MICROWAVE OVEN SAFETY
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
For all cord connected appliances:
The microwave oven 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. The microwave oven 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 serviceman if the
grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the
microwave oven is properly grounded.
Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply
cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or
serviceman install an outlet near the microwave
oven.
For a permanently connected
appliance:
The microwave oven must be connected to a
grounded, metallic, permanent wiring system, or an
equipment grounding conductor should be run with
the circui
t conductors and connected to the
equip
ment grounding terminal or lead on the
microwave oven.
