Installation
Unpacking Oven
•
Inspect oven for damage such as dents in door or inside oven cavity.
•
Report any dents or breakage to source of purchase immediately.
Do not attempt to use oven if damaged.
•
Remove all materials from oven interior.
•
If oven has been stored in extremely cold area, wait a few hours before
connecting power.
Radio Interference
Microwave operation may cause interference to radio, television, or a similar
oven. Reduce or eliminate interference by doing the following:
•
Clean door and sealing surfaces of oven according to instructions in
Care and Cleaning section.
•
Place radio, television, etc. as far as possible from oven.
•
Use a properly installed antenna on radio, television, etc. to obtain
stronger signal reception.
Oven Placement
•
Do not install oven next to or above source of heat, such as pizza oven
or deep fat fryer. This could cause microwave oven to operate
improperly and could shorten life of electrical parts.
•
Do not block or obstruct oven filter. Allow access for cleaning.
•
Install oven on level countertop surface.
•
If provided, place warning label in a conspicuous place close to
microwave oven.
•
Outlet should be located so that plug is accessible when oven is in place.
A—For North American (UL/CSA) models, allow at least 2” (5.1 cm) of clearance around
top of oven. For International (50 Hz) models, allow at least 7” (17,8 cm) of
clearance around top of oven. Proper air flow around oven cools electrical
components. With restricted air flow, oven may not operate properly and life of
electrical parts is reduced.
B—Allow at least 2 9/16” (6,5 cm) between air discharge on back of oven and back
wall.
C—Allow at least 1 1/4” (3 cm) of clearance around sides of oven.
Oven Clearances
The switching operation of this microwave oven can cause voltage
fluctuations on the supply line. The operation of this oven under unfavorable
voltage supply conditions can have adverse effects. This device is intended
for the connection to a power supply system with a maximum permissible
system impedance Zmax of
1.1 Ohm
at the interface point of the user’s
supply. The user has to ensure that this device is connected only to a power
supply system which fulfills the requirement above. If necessary, the user can
ask the public power supply company for the system impedance at the
interface point.
WARNING
!
To avoid risk of electrical shock
or death, this oven must be
grounded and plug must not be
altered.
Earthing
Instructions
Oven MUST be
grounded.
Grounding reduces risk of electric
shock by providing an escape wire
for the electric current if an electrical
short occurs. This oven 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.
Consult a qualified electrician or
servicer if grounding instructions are
not completely understood, or if
doubt exists as to whether the oven
is properly grounded.
Do not use an extension cord.
If the product power cord is too
short, have a qualified electrician
install a three-slot receptacle. This
oven should be plugged into a
separate circuit with the electrical
rating as provided in product
specifications (available on Amana’s
wavelink website). When the
combination oven is on a circuit with
other equipment, an increase in
cooking times may be required and
fuses can be blown.
External Equipotential
Earthing Terminal
(export only)
Equipment has secondary earthing
terminal. Terminal provides external
earthing connection used in addition
to earthing prong on plug. Located
on outside of oven back, terminal is
marked with symbol shown below.
