Electrical Requirements

Electrical Shock HazardWARNING

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 death, fire, or electrical shock.

Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

Required:

A 120 Volt, 60 Hz, AC only, 15- or 20-amp electrical supply with a fuse or circuit breaker.

Recommended:

A time-delay fuse or time-delay circuit breaker.

A separate circuit serving only this microwave oven.

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.

WARNING: Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the microwave oven is properly grounded.

Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or serviceman install an outlet near the microwave oven.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

This device complies with Part 18 of the FCC Rules.

Settings

For information on setting the clock, timer, child lock, vent fan and cooktop light, and to view the list of options on the Settings & Info or Hints & Settings menu (depending on your model), see your Quick Reference Guide.

Features

Turntable

Turntable may be turned off (on some models) for manual cooking only. This is helpful when cooking with plates that are bigger than the turntable, or when cooking with plates that are side by side.

Turntable cannot be turned off during preset or sensor (on some models) functions.

Cooking Rack (on some models)

Use only for 2-level cooking. To avoid damage to the microwave oven, always remove rack after 2-level cooking. To avoid damage to the microwave oven due to soil buildup, clean rack supports often.

Grill Element (on some models)

The grill element has a 1,000-watt halogen bulb and a 500-watt quartz bulb. The halogen bulb glows very brightly, but the quartz bulb has a very faint glow that might not be visible.

Convection Element and Fan (on some models)

The convection element and fan are embedded in the wall of the microwave oven cavity, behind the metal screen.

Progress Bar

The progress bar is a visual picture of the estimated running time of sensor functions. It appears under “Sensing” in the display.

Interactive Touch Display

The LCD interactive touch display is designed to be easily navigable, guiding you through the menus, offering multiple selections, accepting your input and executing your commands. It also shows instructions, tips and graphics.

TRUCAPTURE® Ventilation System (on some models)

The vent fan comes on automatically during convection and grill cooking (on some moodels), and it also comes on if the cooktop below gets too hot.
