Installation and Grounding Instructions

Examine Your Oven
Unpack oven, remove all packing material, and examine the oven
for any damages such as dents, broken door latches or cracks in
the door. Notify dealer immediately if oven is damaged. DO NOT
install if oven is damaged.

Placement of Oven

1. Oven must be placed on a flat, stable surface. For proper
operation, the oven must have sufficient air flow. Allow 8 cm (3")
of space on both sides of the oven and 2.5 cm (1") of space on
top of oven.
a. DO NOT block air vents.
If they are blocked during operation, the oven may be
overheated and damaged.
When using any cloth over the oven, the air intake and
exhaust should not be blocked.
Allow proper space on back and both sides of oven.
b. DO NOT place oven near a hot damp surface such as a gas
or electric range, or dishwasher.
c. DO NOT operate oven when room humidity is too high.
2. This oven was manufactured for household use only.
Installation for Trim Kit
1. This oven is designed for installation into a wall cabinet by
using the proper trim kit (NN-TK529WAPH) available from a
local Panasonic dealer. Follow all installation instructions
packed with the kit.
2. DO NOT block air vents. If they are blocked during
operation, the oven may overheat. If the oven overheats, a
thermal safety device will turn the oven off. The oven will
remain inoperable until it has cooled.
3. This oven was manufactured for household use only.
Grounding Instructions
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.
WARNING
—Improper use of the grounding plug
can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician
or service person 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 three wire extension cord that has a three blade grounding
plug, and a three slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the
appliance. The marked rating of the extension cord should be
equal to, or greater than, the electrical rating of the appliance.
Wiring Requirements
1. The oven must be operated on a SEPARATE CIRCUIT. No
other appliance should share the circuit with the microwave
oven. If it does, the branch circuit fuse may blow or the circuit
breaker may trip, or the food may take longer to cook than the
times recommended in this manual.
2. The VOLTAGE used must be the same as specified on this
microwave oven (120 V, 60 Hz). Using a higher voltage is
dangerous and may result in a fire or another accident causing
oven damage. Using a lower voltage will cause slow cooking.
Panasonic is NOT responsible for any damages resulting from
the use of the oven with any voltage other than specified.
3. The oven must be plugged into at least a 15 AMP, 120 VOLT,
60 Hz GROUNDED OUTLET. Where a standard two-prong
outlet is encountered, it is the personal
responsibility and obligation of the
consumer to have it replaced with a
properly grounded three-prong
outlet.

Glass Tray

1. DO NOT operate the oven without the Roller Ring and the
Glass Tray in place.
2. Only use the Glass Tray specifically designed for this oven. Do
not substitute any other glass tray.
3. If the Glass Tray is hot, allow to cool before cleaning or placing
in water.
4. DO NOT cook directly on the Glass Tray. Always place food in
a microwave-safe dish, or on a rack set in a microwave-safe
dish.
5. If the food or utensil on the Glass Tray touches oven walls,
causing the tray to stop moving, the tray will automatically rotate
in the opposite direction. This is normal.
6. The Glass Tray can turn in either direction.
Roller Ring
1. The Roller Ring and oven floor should be cleaned frequently to
prevent excessive noise.
2. The Roller Ring must always be used for cooking along with the
Glass Tray.
3. Always replace the Roller Ring and the Glass Tray in their
proper positions.
