● Microwave oven must be connected to the proper electrical voltage and
frequency as specified on the model/serial number rating plate. The
model/serial number rating plate is located underneath the control panel,
along the oven vent.
● The microwave oven rated 120/240 volt, 20-amp, has 4 wires (L1, L2, N
and G) in the flex conduit and should be connected to a 20-amp
maximum rated circuit, overcurrent protected on both the L1 and L2
circuits.
● A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended.
