providing an escape wire for the electric current if an electrical short occurs. 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 or servicer 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.
