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.

5.For your personal safety, this appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding re- duces 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 polar- ized 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 electri

&prong grounding type wall receptacle

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 grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

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

 

To test the oven, plug it into

7.This microwave oven is designed for use in the household only and must not be used for commercial purposes.

Do not remove the door, control panel, or cabinet at any time. The unit is equipped with high voltage and should be serviced by an authorized Whirlpool service technician.
