3WIRING REQUIREMENTS AND POWER SOURCE VOLTAGE SELECTION

Wiring Requirements

No other appliance should share the circuit with the microwave oven. If it does, the branch circuit fuse may overload and either cause the oven to heat slower than expected or blow the fuse.

the oven with other than specified voltage.

1.For Mode NE-1257

The oven must be on a SEPARATE, 20 Amp, 60 Hz-120V

GROUNDED CIRCUIT.

2.For Model NE-1757

a.This oven must be on a separate, 60 Hz GROUNDED CIRCUIT-minimum 15 amps.

b.The microwave ovens are built to operate on 2 different voltages (230 V or 208 V). Be sure that the voltage selector connector (on the back of the oven) is set for your power supply. Connecting oven to 230 volt line with 208 voltage setting is dangerous and may result in overheating of the electrical components thus shortening their life expectancy or possibly causing a fire or other accident. Connecting oven to 230 volt line with 208 voltage will lower the power output of the oven, resulting in slower heating of the food. Panasonic is NOT responsible for damage resulting from the use of the oven with other than specified voltage.

Power Source Voltage Selection

The microwave oven Models NE-1757 & NE-2157 are factory set for 208 V operation. For 230 V operation, the following selection MUST be made.

(Step 1) Unscrew the voltage selection panel cover which is located on the back of the oven. Do not remove any other parts from the oven.

(Step 2) Remove the while connector and plug the black connector into the socket.

(Step 3) Store the unused white connector in the rectangular opening.

(Step 4) Reattach the voltage adjustment panel cover to the cabinet.

For 230 V - Use black connector plug. For 208 V - Use white connector plug.

To go from 230 V to 208 V circuit follow steps 1-4 above, except at step 2, plug the white connector plug into the socket and store the black plug in the rectangular opening.

NE-1257CR, NE-1757CR, NE-2157CR specifications

The Panasonic NE-2157CR, NE-1257CR, and NE-1757CR are three professional commercial microwaves designed for robust food service operations. These models are widely appreciated for their versatility, efficiency, and user-friendliness, making them ideal for restaurants, cafes, and food trucks.

The NE-2157CR stands out with its powerful 1500 watts of cooking power, which ensures quick and uniform heating of various food items. It features a large 0.9 cubic feet internal capacity, allowing users to accommodate larger dishes. One of the key highlights of this model is its programmable memory with up to 20 customizable settings, which enables users to recall frequently used cooking times and power levels easily. The stainless steel exterior and interior ensure durability and ease of cleaning, while the touch control panel provides a simple interface for quick operation.

Next in the line is the Panasonic NE-1257CR, which offers a slightly lower power output at 1200 watts, making it a more compact option while still delivering impressive cooking results. With a capacity of 0.8 cubic feet, it is an excellent choice for smaller kitchens that require efficiency without sacrificing quality. Its easy-to-use interface allows for basic cooking functions, while the stainless steel construction guarantees longevity in busy environments.

Finally, the NE-1757CR is a middle ground between the two, featuring 1700 watts of cooking power and an internal capacity of 0.6 cubic feet. This model combines performance with a smaller footprint, making it a versatile choice for various commercial settings. Like its counterparts, the NE-1757CR includes programmable presets and a user-friendly control panel, offering consistent results with minimal effort.

All three models utilize Panasonic's advanced inverter technology, which provides consistent heat and eliminates cold spots. This technology allows for more precise temperature control and helps preserve the texture and moisture of food during cooking.

In summary, the Panasonic NE-2157CR, NE-1257CR, and NE-1757CR are all excellent options for commercial kitchens looking for reliable, efficient microwaves. With their robust construction, user-friendly controls, and advanced cooking technologies, these models cater to a wide range of food preparation needs, enhancing productivity in any food service operation.
