GROUNDING INSTALLATION

DANGER

Electric Shock Hazard

Touching some of the internal

components can cause

serious personal injury or

death. Do not disassemble

this appliance.

WARNING

Electric Shock Hazard

Improper use of the grounding

can result in electric shock.

Do not plug into an outlet until

appliance is properly installed

and grounded.

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.

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.

Consult a qualified electrician

or serviceman if the grounding

instructions are not completely

understood or if doubt exists

as to whether the appliance is

properly grounded.

If it is necessary to use an

extension cord, use only a 3-

wire extension cord.

1. A short power-supply cord

is provided to reduce the

risks resulting from

becoming entangled in or

tripping over a longer cord.

2. If a long cord set or

extension cord is used:

1) The marked electrical

rating of the cord set or

extension cord should be

at least as great as the

electrical rating of the

appliance.

2) The extension cord must

be a grounding-type 3-wire

cord.

3) The long 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

unintentionally.

CLEANING

Be sure to unplug the appliance from the power supply.

1. Clean the cavity of the oven after using with a slightly

damp cloth.

2. Clean the accessories in the usual way in soapy water.

3. The door frame and seal and neighbouring parts must be

cleaned carefully with a damp cloth when they are dirty.

4. 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.

5. Cleaning Tip---For easier cleaning of the cavity walls that

the food cooked can touch: Place half a lemon in a bowl,

add 300ml (1/2 pint) water and heat on 100% microwave

power for 10 minutes. Wipe the oven clean using a soft,

dry cloth.
