SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

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 serviceman if the grounding instructions 
are not completely understood or if doubt exists as to whether the oven is 
properly grounded. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 
3-wire extension cord that has a 3-pronged grounding plug, and a 3-slot 
receptacle that will accept the plug on the oven. The marked rating of the 
extension cord shall be equal to or greater than the electrical rating of the 
oven.

A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting 
from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

Longer cord sets or extension cords are available and may be used 
if care is exercised in their use.

If a long cord set or extension cord is used:

The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord 
should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the oven.

The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.

The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape 
over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by 
children or tripped over unintentionally.

WARNING

Handling the power cord on this oven, or cords 
associated with accessories sold with this oven, 
will expose you to lead, a chemical known to the 
state of California to cause cancer and birth 
defects or other reproductive harm. 

Wash your hands after handling.

WARNING

Electric Shock Hazard
Touching some of the internal components can 
cause serious personal injury or death. Do not 
disassemble this oven.
Improper grounding can result in electric shock. 
Do not plug into an outlet until the oven is 
properly installed and grounded.
