INSTALLATION AND GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS (continued)

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 com- pletely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a three wire extension cord that has a three prong polarized grounding plug, and a three slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the appliance. The marked rating of the extension cord should be equal to or greater than the electrical rating of the appliance.

Grounding Instructions

THIS APPLIANCE 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. This 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.

Plug into properly installed and grounded 3 prong outlet.

DO NOT remove ground prong.

DO NOT use an adapter.

Power Supply

1.A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

2.Longer cord sets or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. Do not let cord hang over edge of a table or counter.

3.If a long cord or extension cord is used, (1) the marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, (2)

the extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord, and (3) the longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or table-

top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.

Wiring Requirements

The oven must be operated on a SEPARATE CIRCUIT. No other appliance should share the circuit with the microwave oven. If it does, the branch circuit fuse may blow or the cir- cuit breaker may trip. The oven must be plugged into at least a 20 AMP, 120 VOLT, 60 Hz GROUNDED OUTLET. Where a standard two-prong outlet is encountered, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the consumer to have it replaced with a properly grounded three-prong outlet. The VOLTAGE used must be the same as specified on this microwave oven (120 V, 60 Hz). Using a higher voltage is dangerous and may result in a fire or oven damage. Using a lower voltage will cause slow cooking. Panasonic is NOT responsible for any damages resulting from the use of the oven with any voltage other than specified.

TV / Radio Interference

1.Operation of the microwave oven may cause interference to your radio, TV or similar equipment.

2.When there is interference, it may be reduced or eliminated by taking the following measures:

(a)Place the radio, TV, etc. away from the microwave oven as far as possible.

(b)Use a properly installed antenna to obtain stronger signal reception.

(c)Clean door and sealing surfaces of the oven. (See Care and Cleaning of Your Microwave Oven)

This ensures that food is cooked evenly and thoroughly without hot spots or overcooking. The precise temperature control allows users to enjoy perfectly heated meals, making it ideal for delicate dishes like melting chocolate or defrosting meats.

In terms of capacity, the NN-S503 boasts a 1.2 cubic foot interior, while the NN-S553 takes it a step further with a slightly larger capacity, making them suitable for various cooking needs. These models also offer a range of wattage options, with the NN-S503 providing 1000 watts and the NN-S553 offering even more power for faster cooking. This efficiency saves time, allowing busy individuals and families to prepare meals more quickly without sacrificing quality.

Both models feature a sleek, modern design that fits seamlessly into any kitchen décor. The touch control panel is intuitive and easy to use, enabling users to quickly select cooking functions and settings. Additionally, the bright LED display provides clear visibility, making it easy to monitor cooking progress.

Another significant advantage of the NN-S503 and NN-S553 is the inclusion of pre-programmed cooking settings. These presets simplify meal preparation by automatically adjusting cooking time and power levels for a variety of foods, including popcorn, pizza, and vegetables. This feature caters to novice cooks, ensuring consistent results every time.

Speaking of convenience, both models come equipped with a keep-warm feature that maintains food temperature until it is ready to be served. This is particularly useful for busy households where meal times may vary.

Finally, the easy-to-clean interior ensures maintenance is hassle-free, allowing users to spend more time enjoying their meals and less time on cleanup. In summary, the Panasonic NN-S503 and NN-S553 microwave ovens are innovative, feature-rich appliances that enhance cooking experiences, making them worthy additions to any kitchen.
