Installation and GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
Examine your Oven
Unpack oven, retain all packing material, and examine the oven for any damage such as dents, broken door latches or cracks in the door. Notify supplier immediately if unit is damaged. DO NOT install if unit is damaged.
Note: The appliance should be inspected for damage to the door seals and door seal areas and if these areas are damaged, the appliance should not be operated, until it has been repaired by a service technician trained by the manufacturer.
Removal of Protective Film
A protective film is used to prevent scratching of the outer case during transportation. Remove this film before installation or use.
Placement of the Oven
Oven must be placed on a flat, stable surface. For proper operation, the oven must have sufficient air flow. A gap of at least 2 inches must be available at the right, left sides and back wall of the oven. A minimum space of 8 inches must be left above the oven and the 2 exhaust vents at the rear.
There should be no gap between the table surface and the bottom of the oven. (See instructions “Sanitary Counter Top Seal” on page 23.) Do not place the oven in a hot or damp area, ie. near a stove, sink or directly above heat lamps on a serving line. There is a possibility of a small amount of interference with weak broadcast signals if the microwave oven is located too close to a radio or TV.
Air vents
This oven requires free airflow at the back for maximum cooling efficiency.
Do not block the air vents.
Maximum room temperature
Do not operate the oven when the room temperature is higher than 105˚F and/or the humidity is higher than 90%. Free airflow around the oven is important.
Outdoor use
Do not use this oven outdoors.
Shelves
Do not place the oven directly above or beside a gas or electric range, the oven may be damaged. It is dangerous to position this oven on a shelf which is so high that food and accessories cannot be safely inserted or removed by the user.
Stacking
DO NOT attempt to stack these ovens.
Grounding Instructions
This oven must be electrically 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 appliance 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 service person if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly connected.
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 appliance.
Wiring Requirements
No other appliance should share the circuit with the microwave convection oven. If it does, the branch circuit fuse may overload and either cause the oven to produce lower power output or blow the fuse.
1.This oven must be operated on a dedicated, separate 60 Hz GROUNDED CIRCUIT - minimum 20 amps.
2.This oven is built to operate only on a 208 V power supply. Using a power supply voltage higher than 208 V is dangerous and may result in overheating of the electrical components, thus shortening their life expectancy or possibly causing a fire or other incident.
Panasonic is NOT responsible for any damages resulting from the use of the oven with any voltage other than specified.
