movement of air for proper operation. Do NOT block air
vents located by the top air grill and underneath the oven.
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 electric
current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having a
grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into a 120v, 15amp. outlet that is properly installed
and grounded.
Consult a qualified electrician or service technician if the
grounding instructions are not completely understood or if
doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly
grounded.
Where standard two-prong wall receptacle is encountered,
it is your personal reponsibility and obligation to have it
replaced with a properly grounded three-prong wall
receptacle.
Do not under any circumstance cut or remove the third
(ground) prong from the power cord. Do not use an adapter
plug with this appliance. See pages 1 and 2 of the
Installation Manual for acceptable extension cord
specifications.
Interference Note
Microwave ovens generate radio frequency energy during
operation and if not installed properly may cause
interference to radio and television reception. You can
determine if this unit is causing interference by turning it
on and off while the interference is occurring. If
interference occurs, it may be corrected by one or more of
the following measures:
◆
clean door and seal surfaces of the oven;
◆
reorient the television or radio receiving antenna;
◆
the oven with respect to the television or radio
receiver, and/or
◆
Plugthe oven into a different oulet so that it and the
television or radio receiver are on different circuits.
If the interference persists, you may want to consult an
experienced redio/television technician for additional
Installa tion R e c o m m e n d a tions
Cooking appliances installed under the microwave oven
may, under some heavy usage conditions, cause
temperatures high enough to overheat some internal parts
of the microwave oven.
To prevent overheating from taking place, the exhaust fan
is designed to automatically turn on at a low speed if
excessive temperatures occur. Should this happen, the fan
cannot be manually turned off, but it will automatically
turn off when the internal parts have cooled. The fan may
stay on for up to an hour after the range and microwave
oven controls have been turned off.
A u t o m a tic F a n P r otection f e a tur e
◆
Make sure all cokware used in your microwave oven is
suitale for microwaving. Most glass cooking dishes,
measuring cups, custard cups, pottery or china
dinnerware, which does not have metallic trim or glaze
with metallic sheen, can be used.
◆
If you are not sure if a dish is microwave-safe, use this
test: Place in teh oven the dish you are testing and a
glass measuring cup filled with one cup of water. Set the
measuring cup either in or next to the dish.
Microwave 1 minute at high. If the dish heats, it should
not be used for microwaving. If the dish remains cool
and only the water in the cup heats, then the dish is
microwave-safe.
◆
Paper towels, waxed paper and plastic wrap can be used
to cover dishes in order to retain moisture and prevent
spattering. Be sure to vent plastic wrap so steam can
escape.
