INSTALLATION AND GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

(continued)

Wiring Requirements

The oven must be operated on a SEPARATE CIRCUIT. No other appliance should share the circuit with the microwave oven. If it does, the branch circuit fuse may blow or the circuit breaker may trip. The oven must be plugged into at least a 20 AMP, 120 VOLT, 60 Hz GROUNDED OUTLET. Where a standard two-prong outlet is encountered, it is the per- sonal responsibility and obligation of the consumer to have it replaced with a properly grounded three-prong outlet. The VOLTAGE used must be the same as specified on this microwave oven (120 V, 60 Hz). Using a higher voltage is dan- gerous and may result in a fire or oven damage. Using a lower voltage will cause slow cooking. Panasonic is NOT responsible for any damages resulting from the use of the oven with any voltage other than specified.

TV / 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:

(a)Place the radio, TV, etc. away from the microwave oven as far as possible.

(b)Use a properly installed antenna to obtain stronger signal reception.

(c)Clean door and sealing surfaces of the oven. (See Care and Cleaning of Your Microwave Oven)

The Hood

1.The vent fan in your oven will operate automatically under certain conditions. Caution is required to prevent the starting and spreading of accidental cooking fires while the vent fan is in operation.

2.Never leave surface units unattended at high heat setting. Boil over causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite and spread if vent fan is operating. To minimize automatic fan operation, use adequate sized utensils and use high heat settings only when necessary.

3.In the event of a grease fire, smother flaming pan on surface unit by covering pan completely with well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray.

4.Keep hood and grease filters clean, according to instructions on page 26, to maintain adequate venting and avoid grease fires.

5.To protect the automatic fan feature, always keep the filter clean (see page 26). Should the fan require repair, do not operate microwave oven until it has been repaired.

Indoor Venting

If this appliance is to be vented inside the kitchen, be sure the charcoal filter kit is installed in the unit before you operate. Additional replacement charcoal filter kits can be purchased from your local Panasonic dealer when needed (see page 25).

Fan Motor Operation

After using the oven repeatedly or for long time, the fan may operate to cool the electric components. This is perfectly normal, and you can take out the food from the oven while the fan operates.

NN-SD297 specifications

The Panasonic NN-SD297 countertop microwave oven is a testament to the brand's commitment to innovation, performance, and user-friendly design. This versatile appliance is aimed at individuals and families looking for efficient cooking solutions that enhance their kitchen experience.

One of the standout features of the NN-SD297 is its inverter technology. Unlike traditional microwave ovens that rely on a pulsing method to control power levels, inverter technology delivers a constant stream of cooking power. This means food can be cooked more evenly, allowing for precise defrosting and heating without the common issue of overcooked edges or cold centers. This is particularly beneficial for delicate foods such as fish, vegetables, and sauces, ensuring they maintain their flavor and texture while being heated or reheated.

The NN-SD297 also boasts a spacious 2.2 cubic feet capacity, making it large enough to accommodate a variety of dishes, from dinner plates to casserole dishes. It is equipped with a sleek, stainless steel finish that not only gives it a modern look but also enhances its durability. Additionally, a user-friendly interface with a clear, easy-to-read LED display makes programming the microwave straightforward, even for those less familiar with technology.

This model features a robust selection of cooking options, including a variety of preset buttons for popular dishes. With options for popcorn, pizza, and beverages, users can quickly choose the correct settings without second-guessing. The sensor cooking feature is another highlight, automatically adjusting power levels and cooking times based on the moisture released from foods, taking the guesswork out of cooking.

Safety is also a priority for Panasonic, and the NN-SD297 includes a child safety lock to prevent unintended use. This feature is essential for families with young children, providing peace of mind for parents.

In conclusion, the Panasonic NN-SD297 countertop microwave oven combines advanced inverter technology with a user-friendly design. Its ample capacity and array of cooking options make it a versatile addition to any kitchen. With its emphasis on even cooking, safety, and modern aesthetics, this microwave stands as a reliable appliance for daily cooking and reheating needs. The NN-SD297 is not just a microwave; it’s a culinary companion that enhances cooking precision and provides a seamless kitchen experience.
