GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In the
event of an electrical short circuit, grounding
reduces risk of electric shock by providing an
escape wire for the electric current. The
appliance 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.
WARNING
:
Improper use of the grounding
plug can result in a risk of electric shock.
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, and either:
1) 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, or 2)
Do not use an extension cord. If the power
supply cord is too short, have a qualified
electrician or a serviceman install an outlet
near the appliance.
Electrical Requirements
The electrical requirements are a 120 volt 60
Hz, AC only, 15 amp. It is recommended that
a separate circuit serving only the oven be
provided. The oven is equipped with a
3-prong grounding plug. It must be plugged
into a wall receptacle that is properly installed
and grounded.
Power Supply Cord
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.
If long cord or extension cord is used
˖
a) The marked electrical rating of the
cord set or extension cord should
be at least as great as the electrical
rating of the appliance.
b) The extension cord must be a
grounding-type 3-wire cord, and
The longer cord should be arranged
so that it will not drape over the
counter top or table top where it can
be pulled on by children or tripped
over unintentionally.

grounding or electrical instructions,
consult a qualified electrician or service
person.
