ROUNDING

I

NSTRUCTIONS

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 power 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 plug can result in a risk of

electric shock.

Consult a qualified electrician or servicer if you do not

understand the grounding instructions or if you are not

sure if the appliance is properly grounded.

Do not use an extension cord with this appliance. If

the power cord is too short, have a qualified electrician

or service technician install an outlet neat the

appliance.

WARNING

Do not cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the

power cord under any circumstances.

NOTE

Connect the oven only to a 20A or over dedicated circuit.

THE VENT FAN

The fan will operate automatically under certain conditions (see

page 19).Take care to prevent the starting and spreading of

accidental cooking fires while the vent fan is in use.

• Clean the underside of the microwave often. Do not allow grease to

build up on the microwave or the fan filters.

• In the event of a grease fire on the surface units below the microwave

oven, smother a flaming pan on the surface unit by covering the pan

completely with a lid, a cookie sheet or a flat tray.

• Use care when cleaning the vent fan filters. Corrosive cleaning

agents, such as lye-based oven cleaners, may damage the filters.

• Do not prepare flaming foods under the microwave when the fan is

operating.

• Never leave surface units beneath your microwave oven unattended

at high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers

that may ignite and spread if the microwave vent fan is operating. To

minimize automatic fan operation, use adequate sized cookware and

use high heat on surface units only when necessary.
