GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. Grounding reduces
risk of electric shock by providing a safe pathway for
electric current in the event of a short circuit.
If this oven 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. See
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.
Consult a qualified electrician if grounding instructions
are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to
whether the oven is properly grounded.
Do not use an extension cord. If the product power cord
is too short, have a qualified electrician install a three–
slot receptacle. This oven should be plugged into a
separate 60 Hertz circuit with the electrical rating as
shown in specifications table. When the oven is on a
circuit with other equipment, an increase in cooking
times may be required and fuses can be blown.
The model stated on the front cover is rated at 120V AC,
60 Hz and uses a NEMA 5-15 plug to connect to a
dedicated 120 V microwave circuit.
WARNING - Improper use of grounding can result in a
risk of electric shock.
TV / Radio Interference
This appliance generates and uses ISM frequency
energy. If not installed and used properly, in strict
accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions, it may
cause interference to radio and television reception. It
has been type tested and found to comply with limits for
ISM equipment pursuant to part 18 of FCC rules, which

determine if it causes interference. Try the following to
correct the interference:

television.
▯ Relocate the microwave oven with respect to the
receiver.
▯ Move the microwave oven away from the receiver.

The manufacturer is not responsible for any radio or TV
interference caused by unauthorized modification to this
microwave oven. It is the responsibility of the user to
correct such interference.
