Earthing Instructions
This microwave oven must be earthed. In the event of an electrical short circuit, earthing reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This microwave oven is equipped with a cord having an earthing wire with an earthing plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and earthed. WARNING - Improper use of the earthing plug can result in a risk of electric shock.
Placement of Oven
1.The oven must be placed on a flat, stable surface more than 85 cm above the floor. For correct operation, the oven must have sufficient air flow.
Allow 15 cm of space on the top of the oven, 10 cm at back and 5 cm on both sides. If one side of the oven is placed flush to a wall, the other side or top must not be blocked.
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 oven near a hot or damp surface such as a gas stove, electric range or sink etc.
c)Do not operate oven when room humidity is too high.
2.The surfaces of top, back and left side of the oven become hot during operation. Do not allow the mains cable to come in contact with the surface of the oven.
3.This oven was manufactured for household use only.
4.This oven may be built into a wall cabinet, if desired. This microwave oven is designed and approved for use only with a genuine Panasonic trim kit for Model number listed in the operating instructions (page 30). Installation with any other trim kit may void the warranty.
Circuit
Your microwave oven should be operated on a separate 10 A circuit from other appliances. Failure to do this may cause the power board fuse to blow, and/or food to cook slower. Do not insert higher value fuse in the power board.
Fan Motor Operation
After using the oven, the fan may rotate to cool the electric components. This is perfectly normal, and you can take out the food from the oven while the fan operates.
