SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
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 can result in a risk of electric shock.
Consult a electrician or serviceman 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, use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounded plug,
and 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the appliance. The marked rating of the
extension cord shall be equal to or greater than the electrical rating of the appliance.
DANGER – Electric Shock Hazard
Touching some of the internal components can cause serious personal injury or death. Do not
disassemble this appliance.
WARNING – Electric Shock Hazard
Improper use of the grounding can result in electric shock. Do not plug into an outlet until
appliance is properly installed and grounded.
1. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming
entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
2. Longer cord sets or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised
in their use.
17. Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea are able to be overheated beyond the boiling
point without appearing to be boiling. Visible bubbling or boiling when the container is
removed from the microwave oven is not always present.
THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQUID SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN THE
CONTAINER IS DISTURBED OR A UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.
6

3. If a long cord or extension cord is used:
1) The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at
least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
2) The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.
3) The longer 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.
