PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE
MICROWAVE ENERGY
1.
DO NOT
attempt to operate this oven with the door open as open-door
operation can result in harmful exposure to microwave energy. It is
important not to defeat or tamper with the safety interlocks.
2.
DO NOT
place any object between the oven front face and the door
or allow soil or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.
3.
DO NOT
operate the oven if it is damaged. It is particularly important that
the oven door closes properly and that there is no damage to the following:
a. door (bent)
b. hinges and latches (broken or loosened)
c. door seals and sealing surfaces.
4. The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except properly
qualified service personnel.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit,
the grounding plug reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape
wire for 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. It is recommended that a separate
circuit serving only the oven be provided.
WARNING – Improper use of grounding can result in a risk of electric
shock. DO NOT cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the
power cord under any circumstances.
A short power cord is provided to reduce the risk of the user becoming entangled
in or tripping over a longer cord. Longer cord sets or extension cords are
available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If an extension cord
is used, the marked electrical rating of the cord should be at least as great as
the electrical rating of the appliance. The extension cord must be a grounding-
type 3-wire cord. The longer cord should be arranged so it does not drape over
the table top or counter when children can pull on it or trip over it.
