GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

Examine Your Oven

Unpack oven, remove all packing material and examine the oven for any dam- age such as dents, broken door latches or cracks in the door. Notify dealer immediately if oven is damaged. DO NOT install if oven is damaged.

Placement of Oven

1.The oven must be placed on a flat, stable surface. Place the front surface of the door three inches or more from the counter top edge to avoid accidental tipping of the microwave oven during normal use. For proper operation, the oven must have sufficient air flow. Allow 3-inches (7.6 cm) of space on both sides of the oven and 1-inch (2.5 cm) of space on top of the oven.

(a)DO NOT block air vents. If they are blocked during operation, the oven may be overheated and damaged.

(b)DO NOT place oven near a hot, damp surface such as a gas or electric range, or dishwasher.

(c)DO NOT operate oven when room humidity is excessive.

2.This oven is manufactured for household use only. It is not approved or tested for mobile vehicle, marine, or commericial use.

Installation

1.DO NOT block air vents. If they are blocked during operation, the oven may overheat. If the oven overheats, a thermal safety device will turn the oven off. The oven will remain inoperable until it has cooled.

2.If the oven is designed for installation into a wall cabinet by using the proper trim kit available from a local Panasonic dealer, follow all instructions packed with the kit.

WARNING

Consult a qualified electrician or service person if the grounding instructions are not com- pletely 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 three wire extension cord that has a three-prong polarized grounding plug, and a three-slot receptacle that will accept the plug of the appliance. The marked rating of the extension cord should be equal to or greater than the electrical rating of the appliance.
