Safety IMPORTANT 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 electrical current. This appliance is equipped with a cord that includes a grounding wire and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded. Plug the three-prong power cord into a properly grounded outlet of standard 115-120 voltage, 60 Hz. Your oven should be the only appliance on this circuit. WARNING Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or servicer if you do not understand the grounding instructions or if you are not sure if the appliance is properly grounded. Use of Extension Cords A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk of becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Longer cord sets or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. 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 it must be plugged into a 3-slot outlet. 3. The longer 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 accidentally. If you use an extension cord, the interior light may flicker and the blower may vary when the microwave oven is on. Cooking times may be longer, too. WARNING Do not cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord under any circumstances. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS 4

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
electrical current. This appliance is
equipped with a cord that includes a
grounding wire and a grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into an outlet that is
properly installed and grounded. Plug the
three-prong power cord into a properly
grounded outlet of standard 115-120
voltage, 60 Hz. Your oven should be the
only appliance on this circuit.
WARNING
Improper use of the grounding plug
can result in a risk of electric shock.
Consult a qualified electrician or
servicer if you do not understand
the grounding instructions or if you
are not sure if the appliance is
properly grounded.
Use of Extension Cords
A short power-supply cord is provided to
reduce the risk of becoming entangled in
or tripping over a longer cord. Longer cord
sets or extension cords are available and
may be used if care is exercised in their
use. 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 it must
be plugged into a 3-slot outlet.
3.
The longer 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
accidentally. If you use an extension
cord, the interior light may flicker and
the blower may vary when the
microwave oven is on. Cooking times
may be longer, too.
WARNING
Do not cut or remove the third
(ground) prong from the power cord
under any circumstances.
