ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION

For all cord connected appliances:

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 — Improper use of the grounding can result in the risk of electric shock.

Consult a qualified electrician or Serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood or if
doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or
serviceman install an outlet near the appliance.

For a permanently connected appliance:

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be connected to a grounded, metallic, permanent wiring system, or an equipment ground­ing conductor should be run with the circuit conductors and connected to the equipment grounding terminal or
lead on the appliance.

POWER SUPPLY: CIRCUIT BREAKERS

If the oven is connected to a ground fault detection device, it is required that the GFP or GFEP will allow a
minimum of 30 milliamps ground current without interrupting the circuit.

In case of Radio or Television Interference

This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy and if not installed and operated
correctly, in strict accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions, may cause harmful
interference to authorized radio communication services.
It has been type tested and found to comply with the limits for Part 18.307 conducted emissions for non­consumer equipment and Part 18.305 radiated emissions, which are designed to provide reasonable protection
against such interference. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined
by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try and correct the interference by one or more
of the following measures:

1) Re-orientate the receiving antenna.

2) Relocate the microwave with respect to the receiver.

3) Plug the microwave into a different outlet so that the receiver and microwave are on different branch circuits.

If necessary the user should consult the dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for additional
suggestions.

Note: Modifications should only be carried out by the manufacturer or authorized representative to ensure
continuing conformance.

PRECAUTIONS TO BE OBSERVED

1. Read this manual before using your oven.

2. As with all electrical appliances, it is wise to have the electrical connections

inspected periodically.

3. The oven interior and door seals should be cleaned frequently, following the

instructions described in the CLEANING section.

4. There is no need to switch off your oven after each function but remember to switch

off at the end of the day or period of operation.

5. Microwave energy should not be used to dry linen or warm plates.

6. As with any cooking appliance, care should be taken to avoid combustion of the

items within the oven.

If smoke is observed:

z Switch off
z Isolate from the electrical supply
z Keep the door closed to stifle any flames

7. Ensure food is placed in the centre of the oven cavity for best results.

8. When using the microwave only function, cover the food to prevent splashing the

walls of the cavity.

9. Food in combustible plastic or paper containers should only be used in microwave

only function and checked frequently to avoid the possibility of ignition.

10. Items should be unwrapped when using convection and combination functions.

11. Eggs and whole hard-boiled eggs should not be heated using the microwave or

combination function as they may explode.

12. Food with a skin, e.g. potatoes, apples, sausages, etc. should be pierced before

heating.

13. Food should not be heated in a completely sealed container as the build-up of

steam may cause it to explode.

14. Excess fat should be removed during ‘roasting’ and before lifting heavy containers

from the oven.

15. In the event of glass breaking or shattering within the oven, ensure that food is

totally free of glass particles. If in doubt, dispose of any food that was in the oven at

the time of the breakage.
