FORPERsONALSAFETY,THISAPpLiANCE
MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED. The

power cord of this applianceis equippedwith
a three-prong(grounding) plug”which mates
with a standardthree-prong(grounding) wall
receptacle(Fig. 1) to minimizethe possibility
of.electric shpck hazardfrom this appliance.
Thecustomershouldhavethe wall receptacle
and circuit checked by a qualifiedelectrician
to make sure the receptacle is properly
grounded.

Wherea standard two-prong wall receptacle

is encountered, it is the personal responsi-

bilityandobligation of the customerto haveit
replaced with a properly grounded three­prongwall receptacle.

DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES,
CUT OR REMOVE THE THIRD (GROUND)
PRONGFROMTHEPOWERCORD.

A. IUSAGE S!TUA’I’IONS WHERE APPLl­ANCE’S POWER CORD WILL BE DIS-

CONNECTEDINFREQUENTLY

Because of potential safety hazards under

certain conditions, we strongly recommend

againstthe useof an adapterplug. However,
if youstill electto useanadapter,where local
codespermit,a TEMPORARYCONNECTION
may be made to a properly grounded two­prongwall receptaclebytheuseof a ULlisted
adapterwhich is availableat mostlocal hard-

ware stores (Fig. 2). The larger.slot in the
adaptermustbealignedwith the largerslotin
the wall receptacleto provide proper polarity

in the connectionof the powercord.
CAUTION:Attaching the adapterground ter-

minalto the wallreceptaclecover-screwdoes
not ground the appliance unless the cover
screwismetal,and not insulated,andthewa14

receptacle is”groun’dedthrough the house

wiring, The customer should havethe circuit

checked by a qualified”electrician to make
surethe receptacleis properlygrounded.

Whendisconnectingthe powercord frpm the
adapter, always hold the adapter with one
hand. If this is not done, the ada@erground

‘---

terminal is very likely to breakwith repeated -

use. Should this happen, ,DONOT USE the

appliance until a proper ground has again

beenestablished.

B. USAGE SITUATiOh@>WHERE APPLI- ‘

ANCE’S POWER CORD WILL BE DIS-

CONNECTEDFREQUENTLY.

Donot useanadapterplug in thesesituations
because disconnecting of the power cord
placesundue strain on the adapterand leads

to eventual failure of the adapter ground ter-

minal. The customer should have the two­prong wall receptacle replaced with a three­prong (grounding) receptacle by a qualified

electricianbeforeusingthe appliance.

18. Piastic Utensiis–Plastic utensils designed for mi­crowave cooking are very usefui, but should be used
carefully. Even microwave plastic may not be as toler­ant of overcooking conditions as are giass or ceramic
materials and may soften or char if subjected to short
periods of overcooking. in longer exposures to over­cooking, the food and utensils could ignite, For these
reasons: 1) Use microwave plastics -only “and use
them”

instrictcompliancewith the utensil manufac-

turer’s recommendations. 2) Do not subject empty
utensils to microwaving. 3) Do not permit children to
use plastic utensils without complete supervision.

papers. If overheated, they can catch fire.

6, Cooking Merwiis may become hot because of heat
transferred from the heated food. This is especially
true if plastic wrap has been ‘covering the top and

handle the utensil.

7. Sometimes, the oven sheif can become too hot to
touch. Be carefui touching the shelf during and after
cooking.

8, DO not use any thermometer in food you are
microwaving unless that thermometer is designed or
recommended for use in the microwave oven.
