Becauseof potentialsafetyhazards 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

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.

CmJtion: 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. YOLJshould have the circuit checked by a qualified electrician to malw sure the receptacle is properly grounded.

Donotuse an adapter plug in these situationsbecause disconnectingof the power cord places undue strain on the adapter and leads to eventual fiiilureoftheadaptergroundterminal.

Because of potential safety hazards undercertainconditions,we strongly recommend againstthe use of an extensioncord. However,if it is necessary to use an extensioncord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug, and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the appliance. The marked rating of the extension cord shall be equal to or greater than the electrical rating of the appliance (15amperes).

Such extension cords are obtainable through General Electric service. If you do use an extension ‘cord with your mkn-owaveoven$the interior light may fliclcerand the blower sound may vary when oven is in use. Cook times may be longer as well.
