ROUNDING
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short cir-
cuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape
wire for the electrical current. This appliance is equipped with a cord hav-
ing a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged
into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
WARNING:
risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if you do
not understand the grounding instructions or if you are not sure if the appli-
ance is properly grounded.
Use of Extension Cords
A short power-supply cord is provid-

becoming entangled in or tripping

WARNING:
prong from the power cord under any circumstances.
Preferred method of grounding
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.
Using an adapter
Due to potential safety hazards, we strongly recommend against the use of an
adapter plug. However, if you still elect to use an adapter, where local codes
may permit, a TEMPORARY CONNECTION may be made to a properly
grounded 2-prong wall receptacle by the use of a UL-listed adapter, which is
available at most hardware stores.

2. The extension cord must be a
grounding-type 3-wire cord and it must
be plugged into a 3-slot outlet.
3. The longer cord should be arranged
so that it will not drape over the counter
top or tabletop where it can be pulled
on by children or tripped over uninten-
tionally.
If you use an extension cord, the interi-
or light may flicker and the blower may
vary when the microwave oven is on.
Cooking times may be longer, too.
