Do not operate this appliance if it has a damaged cord or a plug, if it is not working properly, or if it has been 
damaged or dropped.

17

Do not immerse the cord or plug in water. Keep the cord away from heated surfaces. Do not let the cord hang 
over the edge of a table or counter.

18

Use only thermometers which are specifically designed for use in microwave ovens.

19

Be certain the glass tray and roller rings are in place when you operate the oven.

20

This appliance should be serviced only by qualified service personnel. Contact the nearest authorized service 
facility for examination, repair, or adjustment.

21

When cleaning surfaces of the door and oven that come together on closing the door, use only mild, 
nonabrasive soaps, or detergents applied with a sponge or soft cloth.

22

VENTILATING HOODS:

a) Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently-Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on hood or filter.

b) When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.

23

Use care when cleaning the vent-hood filter. Corrosive cleaning agents, such as lye-based oven cleaners, may 
damage the filter.

24

To reduce the risk of fire and electric shock, install only above electric cooking equipment. If the 
over-the-cooktop microwave oven is intended to be used with either a gas or electric range, the following words 
or the equivalent shall be included: Suitable for use above both gas and electric cooking equipment.

Unpacking instructions

Carefully remove your microwave from the box. Save the box as it may make installation easier.

1

Remove all packing materials from inside the oven cavity. However, DO NOT REMOVE THE WAVEGUIDE COVER, 
which is located on the ceiling in the oven cavity. Make sure that you have all items from the Package contents 
on page 7. Read and save the instructions.

2

Remove the feature sticker from the outside of the door, if there is one.

3

Check the oven for any damage, such as misaligned or bent door, damaged door seals and sealing surfaces, 
broken or loose door hinges and latches, and dents inside the cavity or on the door. If there is any damage, do 
not operate the oven and contact your dealer.

See the 

Installation Guide

 for more information.

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 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.

Electrical requirements

The electrical requirements are a 120 volt 60Hz, AC only, 20 amp outlet. 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 a 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.

c) 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.

Notes:

• If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical instructions, consult a qualified electrician or service person. 
• Insignia does not accept any liability for damage to the oven or personal injury resulting from failure to observe the electrical 

connection procedures.
