PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
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 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 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 that has a 3-blade grounded plug, and 3-slot
receptacle that will accept the plug on the appliance. The marked
rating of the extension cord shall be equal to or greater than the
electrical rating of the appliance.
DANGER - Electric Shock Hazard:
Touching some of the internal 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.
1. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks
resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a
longer cord.

EN-7
2. Longer cord sets or extension cords are available and may be
used if care is exercised in their use.
3. 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-type3-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.
RADIO INTERFERENCE
1. Operation of the microwave oven may cause interference to
your radio, TV or similar equipment.
2. When there is interference, it may be reduced or eliminated
by taking the following measures:
(1). Clean door and sealing surface of the oven.
(2). Reorient the receiving antenna of radio or television.
(3). Relocate the microwave oven with respect to the
receiver.
(4). Move the microwave oven away from the receiver.
(5). Plug the microwave oven into a dierent outlet so that
