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 electrical current. This appliance is equipped with a cord that includes a grounding wire and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

WARNING WARNING

Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.

•Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet. Do not remove the third (grounding) prong. Do not use an adaptor or otherwise defeat the grounding plug.

•Consult a qualified electrician or service person if you do not understand the grounding instructions or if you are not sure if the appliance is properly grounded.

•We do not recommend using an extension cord with this appliance. If the power-supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or serviceman install an outlet near the appliance. However, if it is necessary to use an extension cord, read and follow the “Use of Extension Cords” section below.

Use of Extension Cords

A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk of your becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Longer cord sets or extension cords are available and you can use them if you exercise care. If you use a long cord or extension cord:

1.The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.

2.The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord and it must be plugged into a 3-slot outlet.

3.The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally. If you use an extension cord, the interior light may flicker and the speed of the blower may vary when the microwave oven is on. Cooking times may be longer too.
