Installation and Grounding Instructions

Examine Your Oven

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

Placement of Your Oven

1.Oven must be placed on a flat, stable surface. For proper operation, the oven must have sufficient air flow. Allow 8 cm (3") of space on both sides of the oven and 15 cm (6") of space on top of the oven.

a.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.

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

c.DO NOT operate the oven when room humidity is too high.

2.This oven was manufactured for household use only.

3.This oven may be built into a wall cabinet, if desired, by using the proper trim kit, which may be purchased from a local dealer.

Follow all installation instructions packed with kit. (Trim Kit Model No. ☛ see page 15)

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 plug can result in a risk of electric shock.

Consult a qualified electrician or service person if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if it is uncertain whether the appliance is properly grounded or not.

If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a three-wire extension cord that has a three blade grounding plug, and a three-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the appliance. The marked rating of the extension cord should be equal to, or greater than, the electrical rating of the appliance.

Fan Motor Operation

After using the oven the fan motor rotates to cool the electric components. This is perfectly normal, and you can take the food out of the oven while the fan operates.

Wiring Requirements

1.The oven must be 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, or the food may cook slower than recommended in this manual.

2.The VOLTAGE used must be the same as specified on this microwave oven (120 V, 60 Hz). Using a higher voltage is dangerous and may result in a fire or other accident causing oven damage. Using a lower voltage will cause slow cooking. Panasonic is NOT responsible for damage resulting from the use of the oven with other than specified voltage.

3.The oven must be plugged into at least a 15 AMP, 120 VOLT, 60 Hz GROUNDED OUTLET. Where a standard two-prong outlet is

encountered, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the consumer

to have it replaced with a properly grounded three-prong outlet.

Ceramic Tray

1.DO NOT operate the oven without the Roller Ring and Ceramic Tray in place.

2.Only use the Ceramic Tray specifically designed for this oven. Do not substitute any other Ceramic Tray.

3.If the Ceramic Tray is hot, allow it to cool before cleaning or placing it in the water.

4.DO NOT cook directly on the Ceramic Tray. Always place food in a microwave-safe dish, or on a rack set in a microwave-safe dish.

5.If food or utensils on the Ceramic Tray touch the oven walls, causing the turntable to stop moving, the turntable will automatically rotate in the opposite direction. This is normal.

6.The Ceramic Tray can turn in either direction.

Roller Ring

1.The Roller Ring and oven floor should be cleaned frequently to prevent excessive noise.

2.The Roller Ring must always be used with the Ceramic Tray.

3.Always replace the Roller Ring and Ceramic Tray in their proper positions.

Oven Racks

Use these racks for Bake, Broil or Combination cooking to elevate food for proper heating.

May also be used during Microwave cooking. Arcing may occur if a metal container is used. If this occurs, stop the cooking, change the container and re-start the program.
