Installation Instructions

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

For Your Safety

• Be sure your oven is installed properly by
a qualified installer or service technician.

• Be sure the oven is securely installed in a
cabinet that is firmly attached to the house
structure. Weight on the oven door could
cause the oven to tip and result in injury.

Never allow anyone to climb, sit, stand or
hang on the oven door.

• Make sure the cabinets and wall coverings
around the oven can withstand the

temperatures (up to 200°F) generated

by the oven.

WARNING: The electrical

power to the oven supply line
must be shut off while line

connections are being made. Failure

to do so could result in serious injury

or death.

Electrical
Requirements

This appliance must be supplied with the

proper voltage and frequency, and connected

to an individual, properly grounded branch
circuit, protected by a circuit breaker or fuse

having amperage as noted on rating plate.
(Rating plate is located on the inside wall of

the microwave oven.)
We recommend you have the electrical wiring

and hookup of your oven connected by a
qualified electrician. After installation, have the

electrician show you where your main oven
disconnect is located.

Check with your local utilities for electrical
codes which apply in your area. Failure to wire

your oven according to governing codes could

result in a hazardous condition. If there are no
local codes, your oven must be wired and fused

to meet the requirements of the National

Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-Latest
Edition. You can get a copy by writing:

National Fire Protection Association
Batterymarch Park

Quincy, MA 02269

Effective January 1, 1996, the National
Electrical Code requires that new, but not

existing, construction utilize a four-conductor
connection to an electric oven. When installing

an electric oven in new construction, a mobile

home, recreational vehicle or an area where
local codes prohibit grounding through the

neutral conductor, follow the instructions in

the section on NEW CONSTRUCTION AND

FOUR-CONDUCTOR BRANCH CIRCUIT

CONNECTION.
You must use a three-wire, single-phase A.C.

208Y/120 Volt or 240/120 Volt, 60 hertz
electrical system. If you connect to aluminum

wiring, properly installed connectors approved
for use with aluminum wiring must be used.
