SAFETY
Important 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
electrical current. This appliance is equipped with a
cord that includes a grounding wire and a grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is
properly installed and grounded.
Plug the two-prong power cord into a properly
grounded outlet of standard 220 voltage, 60 Hz. Your
oven should be the only appliance on this circuit.
WARNING
Improperuse of thegrounding plugcanresult
ina riskof electric shock.Consult a qualified
electricianorservicerifyoudonot understand
thegroundinginstructionsor ifyouarenot
sure if the appliance is properly grounded.
Use of Extension Cords
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the
risk of becoming entangled in or tripping over a
longercord. Longercord setsor extension cordsare
available and may be used if care is exercised in
their use. 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 and it must be plugged into a 2-slot
outlet.
3. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will
notdrapeoverthecountertoportabletopwhereit
can be pulled on by children or tripped over
accidentally. If you use an extension cord, the
interior light may flicker and the blower may vary
when the microwave oven is on. Cooking times
may be longer, too.
WARNING
Do not cut or remove the third (ground)
prong from the power cord under any
circumstances.
