EN-07
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO
PERSONS GROUNDING INSTALLATION
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 qualied 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.
DANGER
Electric Shock Hazard:
Touching some of the internal components can
cause serious personal injury or death. Do not
disassemble this appliance.

EN-08
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. 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.

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.
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.
