GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
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. The Drawer Microwave 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 in accordance with the National
Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances.
WARNING: Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of
electric shock. Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is too
short, have a qualified electrician or serviceman install an outlet near the
appliance.

- To reduce the risk of tipping of the drawer, the Anti-Tip block must be properly installed located 14-13/16″ above the floor on which the appliance will sit. The 6″ Anti-Tip block must be provided by the installer. See Figure 9. The Anti-Tip block prevents serious injury that might result from spilled hot liquids.
- If the Drawer Microwave is ever moved to a different location, the Anti-Tip block must also be moved and installed. When installed to the wall, make sure that the screws completely penetrate the dry wall and are secured in wood or metal so that the block is totally stable. When fastening, be sure that the screws do not penetrate electrical wiring or plumbing.
