1.6 Cu. Ft. Over-the-Range Microwave

www.insigniaproducts.com

The microwave oven is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is 
properly installed and grounded. DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES CUT OR REMOVE THE GROUNDING PIN 
FROM THE PLUG. DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD.

If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or serviceman install an outlet near the appliance.

The power supply cord and plug must be connected to a separate 120 Volt AC, 60 Hz, 15 Amp, or more branch 
circuit, single grounded receptacle. The receptacle should be located inside the cabinet directly above the 
microwave oven mounting location as shown above.

ABOUT YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN

Read  this 

User Guide

 and always save it for reference.

A good microwave cookbook is a valuable asset. Check it for microwave cooking principles, techniques, hints, 
and recipes.

NEVER use the microwave oven without the turntable and support nor turn the turntable over so that a large 
dish could be placed in the microwave oven. The turntable will turn both clockwise and counterclockwise. 

ALWAYS have food in the microwave oven when it is on to absorb the microwave energy. 

When using the microwave oven at power levels below 100%, you may hear the magnetron cycling on and off. 

It is normal for the exterior of the microwave oven to be warm to the touch when cooking or reheating.

Condensation is a normal part of microwave cooking. Room humidity and the moisture in food will influence the 
amount of moisture that condenses in the microwave oven. Generally, covered foods will not cause as much 
condensation as uncovered ones. Ventilation openings must not be blocked. 

The microwave oven is for food preparation only. It should not be used to dry clothes or newspapers.

Your microwave oven is rated at1000 watts by using the IEC Test Procedure. In using recipes or package 
directions, check food a minute or two before the minimum time and add time accordingly.

Notes

• If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical instuctions, consult a 

qualified electrican or service person. 

• Insignia does not accept any liability for damage to the microwave oven or 

personal injury resulting from failure to observe the correct electrical connection 
procedures.
