  This can result in harmful exposure to microwave energy.

• It is important not to break or tamper with the safety interlocks.

• Do not place any object between the oven front face and the door or allow soil or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.

• Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. It is particularly important that the oven door closes properly and that there is no damage to the:

• Door (bent or broken)

• Hinges and latches (broken or loosened)

• Door seals and sealing surfaces (dirty or eroding)

• The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except properly qualified service personnel.

• If the oven is not maintained in a good state of cleanliness, its surface could be degraded and affect the lifespan of the oven and lead to a dangerous situation.

• Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in the manual. Do not use corrosive chemicals or vapors in this appliance. This type of oven is specifically designed to heat, cook, or defrost food. It is not designed for  industrial or laboratory use.

• Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.

• Heavily soiled seal: If the seal is very dirty or eroded, the appliance door will no longer close properly during operation. The fronts of adjacent units could also be damaged. Always keep the seal clean.

• This appliance can be used by children if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved.

• Children shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision. Keep the appliance and its cord out of reach of children without supervision.

• If the electrical cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or a similarly qualified professional in order to avoid a hazard.

• Do not immerse cord or plug in water.

• Keep cord away from heated surface.

• Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.

BEFORE INSTALLATION

BEFORE INSTALLATION
Gather the required tools before starting installation. Read and follow the instructions provided with any tools listed here.
TOOLS AND PARTS NEEDED

• Phillips-head screwdriver
• 1/8” drill bit and drill
• Measuring tape

PARTS PROVIDED

• Phillips-head screws (2)

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD

• Before you plug in an electrical cord or turn on power supply, make sure all controls are in the OFF position.

• This appliance must be grounded. Connect only to properly grounded outlet.

• Improper grounding may result in electrical shock. Consult a qualified electrician if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

• Do not cut or remove the ground prong. It must be plugged into a matching grounding type receptacle to avoid electrical shock. If there is any doubt if the wall receptacle is properly grounded, check with a qualified electrician.

• Before installing, turn power OFF at the service panel. Lock service panel to prevent power from being turned on accidentally.

• Be sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician.
  Installation, electrical connections, and grounding must comply with all applicable codes. 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 cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug.
  The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

WARNING
WARNING: Improper use of the grounding can result in a risk of electric shock.

• If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-prong grounded plug and a 3-slot 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.

• Only a qualified electrician who takes the appropriate regulations into account may install the socket or replace the connecting cable. If the plug is no longer accessible following installation, an all-pole isolating switch must be  present on the installation side with a contact gap of at least 1/8” (3 mm). Contact protection must be ensured by the professional who installs the unit.

• Touching some of the internal components can cause serious personal injury or death. Do not disassemble this appliance. Improper use of the grounding can result in electrical shock. Do not plug into an outlet until appliance is  properly installed and grounded.

• A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
  WARNING
  WARNING: We do not recommend using an extension cord and if used on this appliance, it will void warranty. If you are going to use an extension cord, make sure the wire gauge and length are correct for use with a microwave.  The use of an extension cord can cause voltage drop, fire hazard, and can cause permanent damage to the microwave if used.

• Longer cord sets or extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use. If a long cord or extension cord is used:

• The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.

• The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.

• The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

• A 3-prong grounded outlet
• 120VAC, 60Hz, NEMA 5-20 plug
• 20-amp electrical supply with a fuse or a circuit breaker

ELECTRIC INSTALLATION

• 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 rating.

• The outlet box and supply circuit should be installed by a qualified electrician and conform to the National Electrical Code or the prevailing local code.

• The voltage used must be the same as specified on this microwave oven. Using a higher voltage is dangerous and may result in a fire or oven damage. Using a lower voltage will cause slow cooking.

• The manufacturer is not responsible for any damages resulting from the use of the oven with any voltage other than specified.
