4.Electrical requirements

recommended.) It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only this appliance be provided.

5.GROUNDINGINSTRUCTIONS

Electrical Shock Hazard

Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electrical shock. DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, REMOVE THE POWER SUPPLY CORD GROUNDING PRONG.

6.For your personal safety, this appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electrical shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This appliance is equipped with a polarized 3-prong grounding plug. It must be plugged into a correctly polarized mating 3-prong grounding type wall receptacle, properly installed and grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances. If a mating wall recep- tacle is not available or if you are not sure if the wall receptacle is properly grounded and

polarized, have it checked by a qualified electrician.

It is the personal responsibility and obliga- tion of the customer to have a properly grounded and correctly polarized 3-prong wall receptacle installed by a qualified electrician.

Consult a qualified electrician if the ground- ing instructions are not completely under- stood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

It is not recommended to use an exten- sion cord with your microwave oven, but if you find it necessary to do so temporarily (until a properly grounded and polarized 3- prong receptacle is installed), use only a heavy duty UL listed 3-wire grounding

type extension cord containing three

16-gauge (minimum) copper wires. It must not be longer than 10 feet (cords longer than 10 feet may affect the cooking performance of your microwave oven). The plug on the extension cord must fit into a 3-prong ground- ing type wall receptacle (as shown on this page) and the receptacle end of the extension cord must accept the 3-prong grounding plug of the microwave oven.
