Electrical safety and cord handling
• Voltage:
Make sure that your outlet voltage and circuit frequency correspond
to the voltage stated on the appliance rating plate.
• Power outlet:
Connect the appliance to a properly earthed power outlet,
which must be readily accessible so that you can easily unplug it if necessary.
• Power cord
: Do not kink or damage the power cord. Do not let it hang over
the edge of a table or benchtop, and do not let it touch hot or sharp surfaces.
Make sure the cord does not run under the microwave oven. Run it so that
there will be no risk of anyone pulling it inadvertently or tripping over it.
• Electrical safety:
Do not insert any objects into the appliance.
• WARNING: Protect from moisture:
To reduce the risk of electrocution and
other electrical hazards, do not immerse the cord or plug in water, do not spill
liquids into the oven, and do not operate it with wet hands.

supply after use and before cleaning, servicing, maintenance, or moving the

gently out of the outlet.
• Safety switch
: The installation of a residual current device (safety switch) is
