GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
The microwave oven must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, the
3-prong grounding plug reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for
the electric current. The microwave oven is equipped with a power cord consisting of a
grounding wire with a 3-prong grounding plug. The 3-prong plug must be plugged into a
3-prong outlet receptacle that is properly installed and grounded.

WARNING: Improper use of the grounding plug and/or outlet can result in a risk of electric
shock. Consult a qualifi ed electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not
completely understood, if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded,
or either:
• If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that has
a 3-blade grounding 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.
• If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualifi ed electrician or serviceman
install an outlet near the appliance, or DO NOT use an extension cord.
WARNING: DO NOT cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord under any
circumstances.
