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
power cord having a grounding
wire with a grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into an outlet

that is properly installed and
grounded. (Fig. 1)

WARNING-Improper
use of the grounding plug can-result
in a risk of electric shock.

GROUND EXISTS

Fig. 1

BEFORE USE

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 a standard two-prong wall
receptacle is encountered, it is
your personal responsibility and
obligation to have it replaced with
a properly grounded three-prong
wall receptacle.

Do not under any 
cut or remove the third 
prong from the power cord.

Use of Adapter Plugs

Usage situations where
appliance’s power cord will
be disconnected infrequently.

Because of potential safety hazards
under certain conditions, we
strongly recommend against the
use of an adapter plug. However,
if you still elect to use an adapter,
where local codes permit, a
TEMPORARY 
may be made to a properly grounded

two-prong wall receptacle by the
use of a 

 listed adapter (Fig. 2)

which is available at most local
hardware stores.

TEMPORARY METHOD

FIRM 

Fig. 2

BEFORE USE

The larger slot in the adapter must
be aligned with the larger slot in
the wall receptacle to provide
proper polarity in the connection
of the power cord.

Caution:  Attaching the adapter
ground terminal to the wall
receptacle cover screw does not
ground the appliance unless the
cover screw is 

 and not

insulated, and the wall receptacle
is grounded through the house
wiring. You should have the circuit

checked by a qualified electrician
to make sure the receptacle is
properly grounded.

When disconnecting the power
cord from the adapter, always hold
the adapter with one hand. If this
is not done, the adapter ground
terminal is very likely to break with
repeated use. Should this happen,
DO NOT USE the appliance until
a proper ground has again been

Usage situations where
appliance’s power cord will
be disconnected frequently.
Do 

not use an adapter plug in these

situations because disconnecting of
the power cord places undue strain
on the adapter and leads to eventual
failure of the adapter ground

terminal. You should have the
two-prong wall receptacle replaced
with a three-prong (grounding)
receptacle by a qualified electrician
before using the appliance.

Use of 

 Cords

1. A short power-supply cord is

provided to reduce the risks
resulting from becoming entangled
in or tripping over a longer cord.

2. Longer cord sets or extension
cords are available and may be 

used

if care is exercised in their use.

3. 

 long cord or extension cord

is used, (1) the marked electrical
rating of the cord set or extension
cord should be at 

 as great as

the electrical rating of the appliance,
(2) the extension cord must be a
grounding-type 3-wire cord, and
(3) the longer cord should be
arranged so that it will not drape
over the countertop or 
where it can be pulled on by children
or tripped over accidentally.

If you do use an extension cord
with your microwave oven, 
the

interior light may flicker and the
blower sound may 

vary when oven

is in use. Cook times may be 
as well.
