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 oven is equipped with a cord that has
a grounding wire with a grounding plug, which must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and
grounded. Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if uncertain about the ability to follow grounding
instructions or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.
X DO NOT use an extension cord. If the power cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or
serviceman install an outlet near the appliance.
WARNING: Improper grounding can result in risk of electric shock.
Power Cord Replacement or Removal
If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent, or a similarly
qualified person.
WARNING: If the oven is unplugged during service or maintenance, the user must be able to access and
see the plug at all times to ensure that the oven remains unplugged. The plug must remain near the oven
and cannot be placed behind another appliance or in another room.
Protective Earth (Ground) Symbol
This symbol identifies the terminal which is intended for connecting an external conductor for
protection against electric shock in case of a fault, or the terminal of a protective earth (ground)
electrode.
Equipotential Bonding Symbol
This symbol identifies the terminals which, when connected together, bring the various parts of an
equipment or of a system to the same potential, not necesarily being the earth (ground) potential, e.g.
for local bonding.

dough pizzas in as little as 90 seconds. The oven
is small and ventless, so it can be placed virtually
anywhere without type I or type II ventilation.
