IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
!
!
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR
INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
1. Use this unit only in the manner intended by the
manufacturer. If you have questions, contact the
manufacturer at the address or telephone number listed
in the warranty.
2. Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off at
service panel and lock service disconnecting means
to prevent power from being switched on accidentally.
When the service disconnecting means cannot be
locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device,
such as a tag, to the service panel.
3. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by
qualifi ed personnel in accordance with all applicable
codes and standards, including fi re-rated construction
codes and standards.
4. Suffi cient air is needed for proper combustion and
exhausting of gases through the fl ue (chimney) of fuel
burning equipment to prevent backdrafting. Follow the
heating equipment manufacturer’s guidelines and safety
standards such as those published by the National Fire
Protection Association (NFPA) and the American Society
for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers
(ASHRAE) and the local code authorities.
5. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage
electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
6. Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
7. Do not use this unit with any other solid-state speed
control device.
8. To reduce the risk of fi re, use only metal ductwork.

1. GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
!
This appliance requires a three-prong grounded outlet. 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 power cord having
a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded. No
adapter should be used with this appliance. Plug the three-prong power cord into a properly grounded outlet of standard
115-120 voltage, 60 Hz. Your oven should be the only appliance on this circuit.
Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it is very important to have
it replaced with a properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle, installed by a qualifi ed
electrician.
MD0003
WARNING
Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualifi ed
electrician 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 qualifi ed electrician install an outlet near the appliance, in accordance
with all applicable codes and standards. Do not cut, deform or remove the third (ground) prong
from the power cord under any circumstances. Connect the unit only to a 20 A dedicated circuit.
2. ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
Product rating is 120 volts AC, 60 Hertz, 13.5 amps and 1.5 kilowatts. This product must be connected to a supply circuit
of the proper voltage and frequency. Wire size must conform to the requirements of the National Electrical Code or the
prevailing local code for this power rating. The power supply cord and plug should be brought to a separate 20-ampere
branch circuit single grounded outlet. The outlet box should be located in the cabinet above the microwave oven. The
outlet box and supply circuit should be installed by a qualifi ed electrician and conform to the National Electrical Code or
the prevailing local code.

3. HOOD EXHAUST (CONT’D)
Outside ventilation requires a HOOD EXHAUST DUCT. Read the following carefully.
NOTE: It is important that venting be installed using the most direct route and with as few elbows as possible. This ensures
The hood exhaust has been designed to mate with a standard 3¼” x 10” rectangular duct.
If a round duct is required, a rectangular-to-round transition adapter must be used. Do not use less than a 6”
For satisfactory air movement, the total duct length of 3¼” x 10” rectangular or 6” diameter round duct should not
clear venting of exhaust and helps prevent blockages. Also, ensure damper swings freely and nothing is
blocking the ducts.
EXHAUST CONNECTION:
diameter duct.
MAXIMUM DUCT LENGTH:
exceed 140 equivalent feet.
ELBOWS, TRANSITIONS, WALL AND ROOF CAPS, ETC.
These duct pieces present additional resistance to airfl ow and are equivalent to a section of straight duct which
is longer than their actual physical size. When calculating the total duct length, add the equivalent lengths of all
transitions and adapters plus the length of all straight duct sections. The chart below shows you how to calculate
total equivalent ductwork length using the approximate feet of equivalent length of some typical ducts.
