This appliance must be grounded.
In the event an electrical short
circuit, grounding reduces the risk
of electric shock by providing an
escape wire
the electric current.
This appliance is equipped with
power cord having a grounding
wire with grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into an
that is properly installed
grounded. (Fig. 1)
use of the grounding plug can-
result in a risk of electric shock.

BEFORE USE
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.
Where a standard two-prong wall
receptacle is encountered, it is your
personal responsibility and
obligation to have it replaced with
a properly grounded three-prong
wall receptacle.
Do not under any circumstances
cut or remove the third (ground)
prong from the power cord.
Use of Adapter Plugs
Usage situations where
appliance’s power cord will
be disconnected infrequently.
Because of potential safety hazards
under certain conditions, we
strongly recommend against the
use of an adapter plug. However,
if you
elect to use an adapter,
where local codes permit, a
TEMPORARY CONNECTION
may be made to a properly
grounded two-prong wall
receptacle
the use of a
listed

at most local hardware stores.

USE
The larger slot in the adapter must
be aligned with the larger slot in
the wall receptacle to provide
proper polarity in the connection
of the power cord.
Caution: Attaching the adapter
ground terminal to the wall
receptacle cover screw does not
ground the appliance unless the
cover screw is metal, and not
insulated, and the wall receptacle
is grounded through the house
wiring. You should have the circuit
checked by a qualified electrician
to make sure the receptacle is
properly grounded.
When disconnecting the power
cord from the adapter, always hold
the adapter with one hand. If this
is not done, the adapter ground
terminal is very likely to break
with repeated use. Should this
happen, DO NOT USE the
appliance until a proper ground has
again been established.
Usage situations where
appliance’s power cord will
be disconnected frequently.
Do not use an adapter
in these situations because
disconnecting of the power cord
places undue strain on the adapter
and
to eventual failure of the
adapter ground terminal. You
should have the two-prong wall
receptacle replaced with a
prong (grounding) receptacle by a
qualified electrician before using
the appliance.
Use of Extension Cords
This microwave oven has a
short
power-supply cord to reduce the
risks of becoming entangled in
or tripping over a longer cord.
Be very careful if you use an
extension cord. Do not drape it
over a countertop or table where
it can be pulled on by children
or tripped over accidentally.
We strongly recommend that
you do not use an extension cord.
However, if you do, it must be a
grounding type 3-wire cord. The
marked rating of the extension
cord must be equal to or greater
than the electrical rating of the
microwave oven ( 15 amperes).
If you use an extension cord, the
interior light may flicker and the
blower sound may vary when the
microwave oven is on. Cooking
times may be longer, too.
