A. 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.

B. CIRCUITS

For safety purposes this oven must be plugged into a 15
or 20 Amp circuit. No other electrical appliances or
lighting circuits should be on this line. If in doubt, consult
a licensed electrician.

C. VOLTAGE

The voltage used at the wall receptacle must be the same
as specified on the oven name plate located inside oven
door. Use of a higher voltage is dangerous
and may result in a fire or other type of accident causing
oven damage. Low voltage will cause slow cooking. In
case your microwave oven does not perform normally in
spite of proper voltage, remove and reinsert the plug.

D. PLACEMENT OF THE OVEN

Your microwave oven can be placed easily in your kitchen,
family room, or anywhere else in your home. Place the oven
on a flat surface such as a kitchen countertop or a specially
designed microwave oven cart. Do not place oven above a
gas or electric range. Free air flow around the oven is
important.

E. DO NOT BLOCK AIR VENTS

All air vents should be kept clear during cooking. If air
vents are covered during oven operation the oven may
overheat. In this case, a sensitive thermal safety device
automatically turns the oven off. The oven will be
inoperable until it has cooled sufficiently.

F. RADIO INTERFERENCE

1. Microwave oven operation may interfere with TV or

radio reception.

2. When there is interference, it may be reduced or

eliminated by taking the following measures:

a. Clean the door and the sealing surfaces of the oven.
b. Reorient the receiving antenna of radio or television.
c. Relocate the microwave oven in relation to the TV or radio.
d. Move the microwave oven away from the receiver.
e. Plug the microwave oven into a different outlet so that

microwave oven and receiver are on different branch
circuits.

G. UNPACKING OVEN

• Inspect oven for damage such as dents in door or

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.

H. BUILT-IN CAPABILITY

To build-in, use only Amana FTK127 or FTK130 trim kits.
The trim kit will specify which Amana Wall Ovens the
ACM2160 can be built above.
