a minimum of 36 inches from the floor, do not install closer than 2 inches on the sides wall, top and at the
rear of the oven for air circulation.

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 electrical 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 A RISK OF ELECTRIC
SHOCK.

Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood,
or it doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded, and either;

1) 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-socket 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, or

2) 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.
