GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a short circuit,
the electrical connection reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric
current. The appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding conductor and a grounding plug.
The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded. WARNING: Improper
use of the grounding plug may result in a risk of electric shock.
ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATION

• It is recommended that a separate circuit be provided for oven use only.
• The oven comes equipped with a grounded 3 prong plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle
that is properly installed and grounded.
POWER CORD
1. A short power cord is provided to reduce the risk of entanglement or tripping over long cords.
2. Longer cords or extension cords are available and may be used provided that the necessary
precautions are taken.
3. If a longer cable or extension cord is used:
• The electrical specification of the cord or extension cord must be at least equal to that of the

• The extension cord should be a grounded 3-conductor cord and the longer cord should be arranged
so that it does not hang over the counter or countertop where it could be pulled on by children or
