INSTALLATION Oven Clearances A—For North American (UL/CSA) models, allow at least 2” (5.1 cm) of clearance around top of oven. For International (50 Hz) models, allow at least 7” (17.8 cm) of clearance around top of oven. Proper air flow around oven cools electrical components.
INSTALLATION Radio Interference Microwave operation may cause interference to radio, television, or a similar oven. Reduce or eliminate interference by doing the following: • Clean door and sealing surfaces of oven according to instructions in Care and Cleaning section. • Place radio, television, etc. as far as possible from oven. •...
INSTALLATION Earthing Instructions Oven MUST be grounded. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded. 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.
SAFETY – MICROWAVE SERVICE Microwave Ovens produce voltage up to -5000 volts DC! Microwave Oven Capacitors can store high voltage even with oven unplugged! Always discharge capacitors whenever checking high voltage components! Always disconnect the power supply before servicing! NEVER perform high voltage tests! Wear appropriate eye and hand protection! Follow safety precautions in Product and Service literature! Test oven operation after repairs are completed!
SAFETY - DISCHARGING CAPACITORS ALWAYS DISCHARGE CAPACITORS BY SHORTING TERMINALS USING AN INSULATED TOOL(s) CAPACITORS CAN HOLD HIGH VOLTAGE EVEN WHEN POWER TO OVEN IS DISCONNECTED!
