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.
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 exten-
sion cord. If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or
serviceman install an outlet near the appliance.
Electrical Requirements
The electrical requirements are a 120 volt 60 Hz, AC only, 20 amp. It is recom-
mended 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.
Notes:
If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical instructions, consult a qualified electrician or service
person. Neither Sharp nor the dealer can accept any liability for damage to the oven or personal injury resulting
from failure to observe the electrical connection procedures.
