Electrical Requirements
The electrical requirements are a 120 volt 60 Hz, AC only, 20 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.
Extension Cord
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 microwave
oven. The marked rating of the extension cord shall be equal to or greater than the
electrical rating of the appliance.
Notes: 1. If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical instructions, consult
a qualified electrician or service person.
2. Neither manufacturer nor the dealer can accept any liability for damage to the
oven or personal injury resulting from failure to observe the electrical connection
procedures.
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.

This section lists which utensils can be used in the microwave, which ones have limited

Recommended
·
Microwave browning dish
—
Use to brown the exterior of small items such as steaks,
chops, or pancakes. Follow the directions provided with your browning dish.
·
Microwaveable plastic wrap
—
Use to retain steam. Leave a small opening for some
steam to escape and avoid placing it directly on the food.
·
Paper towels and napkins
—
Use for short-term heating and covering; these absorb
excess moisture and prevent spattering. Do not use recycled paper towels, which may
contain metal and could ignite.
