GROUNDING
INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
Improper use of the
grounding plug can
result in a risk of
electric shock.
This appliance must be
grounded. In the event of an
electrical short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of
electric shock by providing an
escape wire for the electric
current.
This appliance is equipped
with a power cord having a
grounding wire with a
grounding plug. The plug
must be plugged into an
outlet that is properly installed
and grounded.
Consult a qualified electrician or
service technician if the grounding
instructions are not completely
understood, or if doubt exists as to
whether the appliance is properly
grounded.
If the outlet is a standard 2- prong
wall outlet, it is your personal
responsibility and obligation to have
it replaced with a properly grounded
3-prong wall outlet.
Do not
under any circumstances
cut or remove the third (ground)
prong from the power cord.
Do not
use an adapter plug with
this appliance.
Do not
use an extension cord with
this appliance. If the power cord is
too short, have a qualified
electrician or service technician
install an outlet near the appliance.
For best operation, plug this
appliance into its own electrical
outlet to prevent flickering of lights,
blowing of fuse or tripping of circuit
breaker.
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 op or
table top where it can be
pulled on by children or
tripped over unintentionally.
Use foil only as directed in
this manual. TV dinners may
be mivrowaved in foil trays
less than 3/4
”
high; remove
the top foil cover and return
the tray to the box. When
using foil in the microwave
oven, keep the foil at least 1
inch away from the sides of
the oven.
•
Plastic cookware designed
for microwave cooking is very
useful, but should be used
carefully. Even microwave
safe plastic may not be as
tolerant of overcooking
conditions as are glass or
ceramic materials and may
soften or char if subjected to
short periods of overcooking.
In longer exposures to
over-cooking, the food and
cookware could ignite.
Follow these guidelines:
1 Use microwave-safe plastics
only and use them in strict
compliance with the cookware
manufacturer
’
s
recommendations.
2
Do not
microwave empty
containers.
3
Do not
permit children to use
plastic cookware without
complete supervision.
