CAUTION
Injury due to electric shock
Touching the elements of the electrical circuits inside the microwave oven can lead to seri-
ous trauma and injury from electric shock. Do not take apart the microwave oven yourself.
Grounding the Microwave Oven
The microwave oven should be properly grounded. In case of any kind of short-circuit;
grounding reduces the risk of electric shock, as the current will flow through the ground
wire.
The microwave oven uses a power cord with ground wire and a grounded plug. The plug
should be connected to an electrical outlet that also has a ground contact.
WARNING: Connecting a grounded plug to an ungrounded outlet can lead to electric
shock.
Consult with a qualified electrician if you do not understand these grounding instructions or
if you are not sure that the microwave oven is properly grounded.
• In order to avoid confusion, the microwave oven is equipped with a short power cord.
• If an extension cord is necessary, only use a 3-wire extensions cord with ground contacts
on the power plug and outlet(s).
• The sectional markings on the microwave oven power cord should match those on the
extension cord.
• The extension cord should not hang off the edge of the table where children can pull on
it; it should be placed where it will not be walked on.
