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.
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.
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:
i. The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be
at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
ii. The extension cord must be a grounding- type 3-wire cord.
iii. 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.
CAUTION
Personal Injury Hazard
It is hazardous for anyone other than a competent person to carry out any service or
repair operation that involves the removal of a cover which gives protection against
exposure to microwave energy.
