GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
DANGER
Electric Shock Hazard
Touching some of the internal
components can cause serious
personal injury or death. Do not
disassemble this appliance.
WARNING
Electric Shock Hazard
Improper use of the grounding
can result in electric shock. Do
not plug into an outlet until
appliance is properly installed
and grounded.
Three-pronged
(grounding) plug
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 grounding wire with a grounding plug.
The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is
properly installed and grounded.
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. If it is necessary to use an
extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that
has a 3-pronged grounding plug, and a 3-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.
1. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in
5
or tripping over a longer cord.
2. Longer cord sets or extension cords are available and may be used if cared is exercised in
their use.
3. If a long cord sets or extension cord is used:
1) The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension marked electrical rating of the cord
set or extension cord should 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 be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop
where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
Radio Interference
1. Operation of the microwave oven may cause interference to your radio, TV
or similar equipment.
2. When there is interference, it may be reduced or eliminated by taking the
following measures:
1) Clean door and sealing surface of the oven
2) Reorient the receiving antenna of radio or television.
3) Relocate the microwave oven with respect to the receiver.
4) Move the microwave oven away from the receiver.
5) Plug the microwave oven into a different outlet so that microwave oven
and receiver are on different branch circuits.
UTENSILS
CAUTION
Personal Injury Hazard
Tightly-closed utensils
could explode. Closed
containers should be opened
and plastic pouches should be
pierced before cooking.
See the instructions on "Materials you can use in
microwave oven or to be avoided in microwave oven."
There may be certain non-metallic utensils that are not
safe to use for microwaving. If in doubt, you can test the
utensil in question following the procedure below.
Utensil Test:
1. Fill a microwave-safe container with 1 cup of cold
water (250ml) along with the utensil in question.
2. Cook on maximum power for 1 minute.
3. Carefully feel the utensil. If the empty utensil is
warm, do not use it for microwave cooking.
4. Do not exceed 1 minute cooking time.
