get at them, as they can be dangerous.
IMPORTANT:
Do not use the oven door handle to move the appliance,
such as to remove it from the packaging.

Electric shock hazard:
-Improper use of the grounding can result in electric
shock. Do not plug into an outlet until the appliance is
properly installed and grounded.
-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.

Instruction manual CM12610 Please keep this instruction manual for future reference
-Consult a qualified electrician or engineer if the
grounding instructions are not completely understood
or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly
grounded. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, only
use a 3-wire extension cord.
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks
resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a
longer cord.
If a long cord set or extension cord is used:
-The marked electrical rating of the cord set or 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.
-The long cord should be arranged so that it will not
drape over the counter top or tabletop where it can be
pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
