INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
GROUNDING
INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. This oven is equipped with
a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. It must
be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and
local codes and ordinances. In the event of an electrical short
circuit, grounding reduces risk of electric shock by providing
an escape wire for the electric current.
WARNING
– Improper use of the grounding plug can result in
a risk of electric shock.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
The electrical requirements are a 120 volt 60 Hz, AC only, 15
amp. or more protected electrical supply. It is recommended
that a separate circuit serving only this appliance be provided.
The oven is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug. It must
be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed
and grounded. Should you only have a 2-prong outlet, have a
qualified electrician install a correct wall receptacle.
A 3-prong adapter may be purchased and used temporarily if
local codes allow. Follow package directions.
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce risk of
becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
EXTENSION CORD
If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire
extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot
receptacle that will accept the plug on the microwave oven.
The marked rating of the extension cord should be AC 115-
120 volt, 15 amp. or more.
Be careful not to drape the cord over the countertop or
table where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over
accidentally.
NOTES:
• If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical
instructions, consult a qualified electrician or service
person.
• Neither Bertazzoni nor the dealer can accept any liability
for damage to the oven or personal injury resulting
from failure to observe the correct electrical connection
procedures.
RADIO OR TV INTERFERENCE
Should there be any interference caused by the microwave
oven to your radio or TV, check that the microwave oven is
on a different electrical circuit, relocate the radio or TV as far
away from the oven as feasible or check position and signal
of receiving antenna.
