DANGER
Electric Shock Hazard
Touching some of the interna 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.
To Reduce the Risk of Injury to Persons
Grounding Installation
CLEANING
Be sure to unplug the appliance from the
power supply.
1. Clean the cavity of the oven after using
with a slightly damp cloth.
2. Clean the accessories in the usual way
in soapy water.
3. The door frame and seal and
neighbouring parts must be cleaned
carefully with a damp cloth when they
are dirty.
1. A short power-supply cord is provided
to reduce the risks resulting from becoming
entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
2. If a long cord set 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.
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.
Consult a qualified 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.
2)The extension cord must be a grounding-
type 3-wire cord.
3)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.
4. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners
or sharp metal scrapers to clean the
oven door glass since they can
scratch the surface, which may
result in shattering of the glass.
5. Cleaning Tip---For easier cleaning of the
cavity walls that the food cooked can
touch:
Place half a lemon in a bowl, add 300ml
(1/2 pint) water and heat on 100%
microwave power for 10 minutes.
Wipe the oven clean using a soft, dry cloth.
