product an oil resistant cord like H05RN or H07RN
or equivalent must be used.
D A N G E R
To avoid electrical shock, this
appliance MUST be adequately
grounded in accordance with local
electrical codes or, in the absence of
local codes, with the current edition
of the National Electrical Code
ANSI/NFPA No. 70. In Canada, all
electrical connections are to be
made in accordance with CSA C22.1,
Canadian Electrical Code Part 1 or
local codes.
N O T E: 230V appliances must be connected
to an electrical circuit that is
protected by an external GFCI outlet.
Po w er C ord C on n ec tio n: The side connection
is recommended for all applications. If a bottom
connection is necessary for counter top units, user
will need to provide a cutout in the countertop to
allow the cord to hang freely without crimping.
The appliance must be installed by a qualified
ervice technician. The oven must be properly
s
grounded in accordance with the National Electrical
Code and applicable local codes.
Plug the unit into a properly grounded receptacle
ONLY, positioning the unit so that the plug is easily

If the unit is not equipped with flexible cord with
plug, an all-pole country approved disconnection
device which has a contact separation of at least 3mm
in all poles must be incorporated in the fixed wiring
for disconnection. When using a cord without a plug,
the green/yellow conductor shall be connected to the
terminal which is marked with the ground symbol. If
a plug is used, the socket outlet must be easily
accessible. If the power cord needs replacement, use
a similar one obtained from the distributor.
For 230V units: To prevent an electrical shock hazard
between the appliance and other appliances or metal
parts in close vicinity, an equalization-bonding stud
is provided. An equalization bonding lead must be
connected to this stud and the other appliances /
metal parts to provide sufficient protection
against potential difference. The terminal is
marked with the following symbol.
