13. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.

14. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.

15. When cleaning surfaces of door and oven that come together on closing the door, use only mild, non-abrasive soaps or detergents

applied with a sponge or soft cloth.

16. To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity: a. Do not overcook food. Carefully attend appliance if paper,

plastic, or other combustible materials are placed inside the

oven to facilitate cooking. Avoid using recycled paper prod-

ucts. Such products sometimes contain impurities which could ignite.

b. Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before

placing bag in oven.

c. If materials inside the oven should ignite, keep oven door

closed, turn oven off, and disconnect the power cord, or shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.

d. Do not use the oven for storage. e. Do not pop popcorn except in a microwave approved popcorn

popper or in a commercial package recommended especially for microwave ovens.

17. Do not operate the oven when empty.

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- ofthe grounding plug can result in

a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman ifthe grounding instructions are not

completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

Use of an extension cord is not recommended, but if it is absolutely necessary

to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade

grounding plug, and a3 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.

Where an electrical wall receptacle is encountered which will accept only a two-

prong plug, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the owner to

contact a qualified electrician and have the outlet replaced with a properly grounded and polarized receptacle for a three-prong, grounding plug.

Such receptacle must also meet local electrical codes, if applicable, and/or the National Electrical Code.

If local codes permit, a temporary connection may be made to a properly

grounded and polarized, two-hole outlet usingan adapter. Note, however, that

attaching the adapter grounding terminal to the outlet cover screw will not ground the oven unless the outlet itself is grounded through the house wiring.

Proper grounding and polarization for the use of a temporary adapter arethe personal responsibility and obligation of the owner

• IMPORTANT The above grounding instructions must be followed not only for your

personal protection against shock and fire hazards, but also to insure satisfactory operation of the electronic controls. In addition to proper grounding, a polarity check of the outlet should be made to insure that polarity is not reversed. Improper grounding or reversed polarity can damage the electronic control or cause it to operate erratically.

Installation

Remove all packing materials bothoutside and insidethe oven before using the oven. Theoven canbe set on anysturdy counter,shelf, table, room divideror rollingcart. The

ovenrequires free movement ofair for proper operation. DO NOT BLOCK AIR VENTS located acrossthe top and underneath the oven. Also, do not removethe feet from the

Interference Note

Microwave ovens generate radio frequency energy during operation, and if not installed properly may cause interference to radio and television reception. You can determine ifthis unit iscausing interference by turning it on and offwhile the

interference is occurring. If interference occurs it may be corrected by one or more of the following measures:

• reorient the receiving antenna;

• relocate the oven with respect to the receiver; and/or

• plug the oven into a different outlet so that it and the receiver are on different

circuits.

If the interference persists, you may want to consult an experienced radio/

television technician for additional suggestions.
