WARNING
To avoid the risk of electrical shock or death, this
oven must be grounded.
To avoid the risk of electrical shock or death, do not
alter the plug.
This oven
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 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 oven power cord is
too short, have a qualified electrician install a three-slot
receptacle. This oven should be plugged into a
separate 60 hertz circuit with the electrical rating as
shown in the appropriate drawing. Models require a 120
supply voltage. When oven is on a circuit with another
appliance, an increase in cooking times may be
required and fuses can be blown.
Receptacle / Plug
120V–15AMP
Grounding Instructions
Installation
Power Supply Cord
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce
the risk of fire and the risk of becoming entangled in or
tripping over a longer cord.
Radio Interference
Microwave oven operation may cause interference to
radio, TV, or similar equipment. To reduce or eliminate
interference:
• Clean door and sealing surfaces of oven. See "Care
and Cleaning" section.

door or dents 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 plugging in.
Oven Placement
Locate oven on a flat surface. Do not place oven
above a gas or electric range. Allow free air flow
around oven. Keep all air vents clear. If air vents are
covered during operation, oven may overheat. If oven
overheats, a thermal safety device automatically turns
oven off. Oven will be inoperable until it has cooled.
Built-In Capability
To build-in, use only Amana RMCB2TK27 or
RMCW2TK27 trim kits. Trim kits will have a label
identifying which microwave oven models may be
used.
