GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This microwave must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces risk of electric shock
by providing an escape wire for errant electric current. Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding
instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded. 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 appliance. The marked rating of the extension cord shall be equal to or
greater than the electrical rating of the appliance.
WARNING
:
Improper use of the grounding plug can result in risk of electric shock.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
The electrical requirements for this microwave are: 120V, 60Hz, AC only, 20 amp.
It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only the microwave be provided.
The microwave is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall outlet that is
properly installed and grounded.
POWER CORD
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping
over a long cord.
Longer cord sets or extension cords are available and may be used if care is taken in using them.
If using a longer cord, the marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as
great as the electrical marking of the microwave itself and the extension cord must be a grounded-type 3-
wire cord. The longer cord should be arranged so it will not drape over the counter or tabletop.
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 circuit, relocated the radio or TV as far away from the oven as feasible or check position and
signal of receiving antenna.
