7. For your personal safety, this appliance
must be grounded. In the event of an elec­
trical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk
of electric shock by providing an escape
wire for the electric current. This appliance is
CORD
equipped with a polarized 3-prong ground­
ing plug. It must be plugged into a correct
polarized
mating 3-prong grounding type
wall receptacle, properly installed and
grounded in accordance with the National
Electrical Code and local codes and ordi­
nances. If a mating wall receptacle is not
available or if you are not sure if the wall re­
ceptacle is properly grounded and polar­
ized, have it checked by a qualified
electrician.
It is the personal responsibility and obligation
of the customer to have a properly grounded
and correctly polarized 3-prong wall recep­
tacle installed by a qualified electrician.
Consult a qualified electrician if the ground­
ing instructions are not completely under­
stood, or if doubt exists as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded.
It is NOT recommended to use an extension
cord with your oven, but if you find it neces­
sary to do so temporarily (until a properly
grounded and poloraized 3-prong recep­
tacle is installed), use only a heavy duty UL
listed 3-wire grounding type extension cord
containing three 16-gauge (minimum) cop­
per wires. It must not be longer than 10 feet
(cords longerthanlO feet may affect the cook­
ing performance of your oven). The plug on
the extension cord must fit into a 3-prong
grounding type wall receptacle (as shown on
this page) and the receptacle end of the
extension cord must accept the 3-prong
grounding plug of the oven.
'8. To test the microwave oven, plug it
into the proper eleotrical outlet. Put
about one cup (250 ml) of room temperature
water in a glass container on the removable
tray in the oven. Close the door. Make sure it
latches. Follow the directions on page 11 to set
the oven to COOK forili minutes. When the timer
is up, the water should be warm.
9. This convection microwave oven is
designed for use in the household only and
must not be used for commercial purposes.
DO NOT remove the outer case, door, or con­
trol panel at any time. The unit is equipped with
high voltage and should not be serviced unless
by an authorized Whirlpool trained service
technician.
