 INSTALLATION OF YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN
• When positioning the microwave oven, it should be set on a flat, steady surface.
• Do not block air vents. If they are blocked during operation, the oven may overheat and
eventually cause oven failure.

radio, antenna, or antenna wire. Position the oven as far from them as possible.
• Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
• Keep the oven away from hot air, steam or splashing liquids when choosing a place to locate it,
otherwise, the unit’s operation may be adversely affected, causing it to break down.
• Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical
consumption.
• Plug the appliance into an exclusive properly installed-grounded wall outlet. Do not under any
circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Any questions
concerning power and or grounding should be directed toward a certified electrician or an
authorized Avanti Products service center.
• DO NOT place anything on the top of the oven.
• Keep the oven at least 5 inches away from both sidewalls and away from rear wall to ensure the
proper ventilation.
