precautions included in the following sections.
• This appliance should be serviced only by qualified service personnel. Contact nearest
Authorized Servicer for examination, repair, or adjustment.
Unpacking and examining your microwave
Open the bottom of the carton, bend the carton flaps back, and tilt the microwave oven over to rest on the plastic
foam pad. Lift the carton off the microwave oven and remove all packing materials, including the User Guide,
Installation Guide, templates (2), charcoal filter, and turntable (with ring). SAVE THE CARTON AS IT MAY MAKE
INSTALLATION EASIER.
• Remove the feature sticker from the outside of the door, if there is one.
• DO NOT REMOVE THE WAVEGUIDE COVER.
• Read and SAVE the User Guide and Installation Guide.
Grounding instructions
This appliance must be grounded. This microwave oven is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a
grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and grounded in accordance
with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances. In the event of an electrical short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.
Electrical requirements
Check the Installation Instructions for proper location for the power supply.
The electrical requirements are a 120 volt AC, 60 Hz, 15 amp. or more protected electrical supply. It is recommended
that a separate circuit serving only the microwave oven be provided.
• To reduce the risk of fire in the microwave oven cavity:
• Do not overcook food. Carefully attend the appliance when paper, plastic, or other combustible materials
are placed inside the microwave oven to facilitate cooking.
• Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before placing the bag in the microwave oven.
• If materials inside the microwave oven ignite, keep the microwave oven door closed, turn the microwave
oven off, and disconnect the power cord or shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.
• Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils, or food in the
cavity when not in use.
• Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea are able to be overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing to be
boiling. Visible bubbling or boiling when the container is removed from the microwave oven is not always
present. THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN A SPOON OR OTHER
UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.
To reduce the risk of injury to persons: • Do not overheat the liquid.
• Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it.
• Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks. Use a wide-mouthed container.
• After heating, allow the container to stand in the microwave oven for at least for 20 seconds before
removing the container.
• Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil into the container.
• Clean the ventilation openings and grease filters frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on
ventilation openings, louver, or grease filters.
• Use care when cleaning the louver and the grease filters. Corrosive cleaning agents, such as lye-based oven
cleaners, may damage the louver and the grease filters.
• When flaming food under the hood, turn the fan on.
• This appliance is suitable for use above both gas and electric cooking equipment 36” wide or less.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Warning
Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.
Check the microwave oven for any damage, such as misaligned or bent door, damaged door seals and sealing
surfaces, broken or loose door hinges and latches, and dents inside the cavity or on the door. If there is any damage,
do not operate the microwave oven and contact your dealer or
repair center. See Installation Instructions for more details.
