Safety Information Operating Instructions IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING. WARNING! EXTENSION CORDS A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Extension cords may be used if you are careful in using them. If an extension cord is used- The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance; The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord and it must be plugged into a 3-slot outlet; The extension cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally. If you use an extension cord, the interior light may flicker and the blower sound may vary when the microwave oven is on. Cooking times may be longer, too. WARNING! PACEMAKERS All microwave ovens must meet Federal DHHS and FCC requirements. However, the operation of some pacemakers may be affected by microwaves. Cognizant of this problem, most pacemaker manufacturers have taken steps to minimize the susceptibility of their products to external interference, including microwaves. Most new pacemakers (1982 and later) are now protected from microwave interference. However, prior to using your microwave oven it is recommended that persons with pacemakers consult the manufacturer of the device for additional information and/or their physician to ensure their pacemaker will not be affected by microwaves. 10 Troubleshooting Tips Consumer Support
