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 is especially beneficial when cooking delicate foods such as fish or reheating leftovers, where precision is paramount.

The microwave offers a spacious 1.2 cubic feet capacity, accommodating large dishes with ease. With a 1200-watt power output, it delivers rapid cooking times, making meal preparation faster than ever. The NN-SD697S also features a smooth ceramic enamel interior that is not only easy to clean but also resists scratches and odors, maintaining the hygiene of the appliance over time.

The LED display and intuitive control panel enhance its user-friendliness, allowing for easy navigation through various settings. The model comes equipped with 14 preset auto-cook menus that take the guesswork out of cooking. Users can simply select the desired option for items such as popcorn, pizza, or vegetables, and the microwave automatically adjusts the power and cooking time for optimal results.

Another impressive feature of the NN-SD697S is its Turbo Defrost function, which quickly and efficiently thaws frozen food without cooking it. This is particularly useful for busy households, ensuring that meal prep is seamless and time-efficient.

Additionally, the microwave includes a keep warm function, which is perfect for holding meals at the right temperature until it’s time to serve, and a child safety lock to prevent accidental operation.

In summary, the Panasonic NN-SD697S is a versatile and reliable microwave that integrates advanced technology, capacity, and convenience into one appliance, making it an essential tool for any modern kitchen.
