8PRODUCT OVERVIEW
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Location of Model Number
To request service information or replacement parts, the service center requires the complete model number of your microwave oven. The model number is on the oven back as shown in the illustration below.
Model number label
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
Electrical Requirements
The oven is designed to operate on a Standard 120 V/60 Hz household outlet. Be sure the circuit is at least 15 A or 20 A and the microwave oven is the only appliance on the circuit. It is not designed for 50 Hz or any circuit other than a 120 V/60 Hz circuit.
No other electrical appliances or lighting circuits should be on this line. If in doubt, consult a licensed electrician.
Voltage Warning
The voltage used at the wall receptacle must be the same as specified on the oven name plate located on the back or on the side of the control panel of the oven. Use of a higher voltage is dangerous and may result in a fire or other type of accident causing oven damage. Low voltage will cause slow cooking. If the microwave oven does not perform normally in spite of proper voltage, remove and reinsert the plug.
Placement of the Oven
The microwave oven can be placed easily in your kitchen, family room, or anywhere else in your home. Place the oven on a flat surface such as a kitchen countertop or a specially designed microwave oven cart. Do not place oven above a gas or electric range. Free airflow around the oven is important. Allow at least 4 inches of space at the top, sides, and back of the oven for proper ventilation.
Do Not Block Air Vents
All air vents should be kept clear during cooking. If air vents are covered during oven operation the oven may overheat. If this happens, a sensitive thermal safety device automatically turns the oven off. The oven will be inoperable until it has cooled sufficiently.
•Improper use of grounding can result in a risk of electric shock.
Consult a qualified electrician or service person if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.
1.Use of an extension cord is not recommended. If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or service person install an outlet near the appliance.
2.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 must be equal to or greater than the electrical rating of the appliance.
NOTE
•A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
•Longer cord sets or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.
•If a long cord or extension cord is used, (1) the marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord must 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 not be draped over a counter or table where children could pull on it, or located where it could present a trip hazard.
See the separate Installation Instructions for directions on placing the cord properly.
Ensure proper ground exists before use
Keep the electrical power cord dry and do not pinch or crush it in any way.
