A. GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
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 cord having a grounding wire with a
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an
outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
WARNING
Improper grounding can result in a risk of electric
shock. Consult a qualified electrician if the
grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded, and either:
1. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use
only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade
grounding plug, and a 3-slot receptacle that will
accept the plug on the appliance. The marked
rating of the extension cord shall be equal to or
greater than the electrical rating of the
appliance, or...
2. Do not use an extension cord. If the power
supply cord is too short, have a qualified
electrician or serviceman install an outlet near
the appliance.
NOT E :
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 a long cord or extension cord is used, (1) the
marked electrical rating of the cord set or
extension cord should be at least as great as
the electrical rating of the appliance, (2) the
extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire
cord, and (3) the longer cord should be
arranged so that it will not drape over the
countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on
by children or tripped over accidentally.

INSTALLATION
Ensure proper ground
exists before use
PRECAUTIONS
*
Be certain to place the front surface of the door
three inches away or more from the countertop
edge to avoid accidental tipping of the
appliance in normal usage.
*
For the most accurate programming of the
electronic units, touch the center of each pad
securely. Do not touch several pads at one time
or touch between pads. A beep sound should
be heard with each touch when a pad is
touched correctly.
*
Do not hit or strike the control with objects such
as silverware, utensils, etc. Breakage may
occur.
*
Be careful when taking the cooking utensils out
of the oven. Some dishes absorb heat from the
cooked food and may be hot.
*
Do not rinse cooking utensils by immediately
placing them into water just after cooking. This
may cause breakage. Allow the turntable to
cool.
*
Use only specific glass utensils. See cooking
utensils section in this manual.
*
Do not operate the oven empty. Either food or
water should always be in the oven during
operation to absorb microwave energy.
*
Do not use your microwave oven to dry
newspapers or clothes. They can catch fire.
*
Use only thermometers approved for
microwave oven cooking.
*
Be certain the turntable is in place when you
operate the oven.
*
Pierce the skin of potatoes, whole squash,
apples, or any fruit or vegetable which has a
skin covering before cooking.
*
Never use your microwave oven to cook eggs
in the shell. Pressure can build up inside the
shell causing it to burst.
*
Do not pop popcorn, except in a microwave-
safe container or commercial package
designed especially for microwave ovens.
Never try to pop popcorn in a paper bag not
designed for microwave oven use. Overcooking
may result in smoke and fire. Do not repop
unpopped kernels. Do not reuse popcorn bags.
