Installation

Unpacking Equipment

• Inspect equipment for damage such as dents in door
or dents inside oven cavity.
• Report any dents or breakage to source of purchase
immediately. Do not attempt to use oven if damaged.
• Remove all materials from oven interior.
• If oven has been stored in extremely cold area, wait a
few hours before connecting power.

Equipment Placement

• Allow at least 7 inches/ 17.8 centemeters of clearance
around top and sides of equipment. Proper air flow
around equipment cools electrical components. With
restricted air flow, oven may not operate properly and
life of electrical parts is reduced.
• Allow at least 2- 9 / inches/ 6.5 centimeters between
16
back of oven and rear wall.
• Do not install equipment next to or above source of
heat, such as pizza oven or deep fat fryer. This could
cause microwave oven to operate improperly and
could shorten life of electrical parts.
• Do not block or obstruct oven filter.
• Allow access for cleaning.

Radio Interference

Microwave operation may cause interference to radio,
television, or similar equipment. 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.
• Use a properly installed antenna on radio, television,
etc. to obtain stronger signal reception.

External Equipotential Earthing Terminal

Equipment has secondary earthing terminal. Terminal
provides external earthing connection used in addition to
earthing prong on plug. Located on outside of oven
back, terminal is marked with symbol shown below.

Earthing Instructions

NOTE: Do not under any circumstances cut or remove
earthing prong from the plug or bend power
prongs to fit receptacle other than one shown for
your equipment. Such abuse of the plug can
result in electrical shock or overheating.
!
Improper use of earthing plug can result in a risk of
electrical shock or death.
This equipment MUST be earthed. In the event of an
electrical short circuit, earthing reduces risk of electric
shock by providing an escape wire for electric current.
This oven is equipped with a cord having earthing wire
with a earthing plug. Plug must be plugged into an outlet
that is properly installed and earthed. DO NOT use a two-
prong adapter.
Consult a qualified electrician or servicer if earthing
instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt
exists as to whether the equipment is properly earthed.
Do not use an extension cord. If product power cord is
too short, have a qualified electrician install an
appropriate receptacle. This equipment should be
plugged into a separate 50 Hz circuit with the appropriate
electrical rating as shown in the drawings. When an oven
is on a circuit with other equipment, an increase in
cooking times may be required and fuses can be blown.
