PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY

(a)Do not attempt to operate this oven with the door open. Doing so can result in harmful

exposure to microwave energy. It is important not to defeat or tamper with the

safety interlocks.

(b)Do not place any object between the oven

front face and the door, or allow soil or cleanser residue to accumulate on

sealing surfaces.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

Observe all governing codes and ordinances. A 120-Volt, 60-Hz,AC-only, 20-amp fused

electrical supply is required. A time delay fuse is recommended. It is recommended that

a separate circuit, serving only this appliance, be provided.

(c)Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. It is particularly important that the oven door

closes properly and that there is no damage to the:

(1)Door (bent)

(2)Hinges and latches (broken or loosened)

(3)Door seals and sealing surfaces

(d)The oven should not be adjusted or repaired

by anyone except for a properly qualified service technician.

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet. Do not remove ground

prong. Do not use an adapter Do not use an extension

cord. Failure to follow these instructions can result in electrical shock, fire, or death.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

For all cord-connected appliances:

The microwave oven 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 electric current. The microwave oven is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

Ensure proper ground exists before use

AWARNING: Improper grounding can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or service technician if you do not understand the grounding instructions or if doubt exists whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or service technician install an outlet near the microwave oven.

For a permanently connected appliance:

This appliance has a short power supply cord to reduce the risk of anyone tripping over or becoming entangled in the cord. The microwave oven must be connected to a grounded, metallic, permanent wiring system, or an equipment

grounding conductor should be run with the circuit conductors and connected to the

equipment grounding terminal or lead on the microwave oven.
