IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

ADAPTER PLUGS

Usage situations where appliance’s power cord will be disconnected infrequently.

Safety

Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions,

we strongly recommend against the use of an adapter plug. However, if you still elect to use an adapter, where local codes permit, a TEMPORARY CONNECTION may be made to a properly grounded 2-prong wall receptacle by the use of a UL listed adapter which is available at most local hardware stores.

The larger slot in the adapter must be aligned with the larger slot in the wall receptacle to provide proper polarity in the connection of the power cord.

(Adapter plugs not permitted in Canada)

Align large prongs/slots

 

Ensure proper ground

TEMPORARY

and firm connection

before use.

Troubleshooting Tips

Consumer Support

CAUTION: Attaching the adapter ground terminal to the wall receptacle cover screw does not ground the appliance unless the cover screw is metal, and not insulated, and the wall receptacle is grounded through the house wiring.

You should have the circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the receptacle is properly grounded.

When disconnecting the power cord from the adapter, always hold the adapter with one hand. If this is not done, the adapter ground terminal is very likely to break with repeated use. Should this happen, DO NOT USE the appliance until a proper ground has again been established.

Usage situations where appliance’s power cord will be disconnected frequently.

Do not use an adapter plug in these situations because frequent disconnection of the power cord places undue strain on the adapter and leads to eventual failure of the adapter ground terminal. You should have the 2-prong wall receptacle replaced with a 3-prong (grounding) receptacle by a qualified electrician before using the appliance.

EXTENSION CORDS

A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

Extension cords may be used if you are careful in using them.

If an extension cord is used—

 

The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating

1

of the appliance;

 

 

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

2

 

The extension cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where

3

it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.

 

If you use an extension cord, the interior light may flicker and the blower sound may vary when the microwave oven is on. Cooking times may be longer, too.

READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.
