DANGERWARNINGUtensils3CAUTIONThis appliance must be grounded. In the event of an elec-trical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electricshock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.This appliance is equipped with a cord having a groundingwire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged intoan outlet that is properly installed and grounded.Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the ground-ing instructions are not completely understood or if doubtexists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-pronged grounding plug,and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on theappliance.1. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.2. Longer cord sets or extension cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.3. If a long cord sets or extension cord is used: 1)The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. 2)The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord, and 3)The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.See next page for further instructions “Materials youcan use in microwave oven or to be avoided in micro-wave oven.”There may be certain non-metallic utensilsthat are not safe to use for microwaving.
