Getting Started
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 risk of electric shock by providing an
escape wire for the electric current.
WARNING – Improper use of the grounding plug can
result in a risk of electric shock.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
Check Installation Instructions for proper location for the
power supply.
The electrical requirements are a 120 volt 60 Hz, AC
only, 15 amp. or more protected electrical supply. It is
recommended that a separate circuit serving only this
appliance be provided.
The microwave oven is equipped with a 3-prong grounding
plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is
properly installed and grounded. DO NOT UNDER ANY
CIRCUMSTANCES CUT OR REMOVE THE GROUNDING
PIN FROM THE PLUG.
Grounding Instructions
EXTENSION CORD
If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a
3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug
and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the
microwave oven. The marked rating of the extension cord
should be AC 115-120 volt, 15 amp. or more.
Be careful not to drape the cord over the countertop or
table where it can be pulled on by children or tripped
over accidentally.
Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is
too short, have a qualified electrician or serviceman install
an outlet near the appliance.
Note:
1. If you have any questions about the grounding or
electrical instructions, consult a qualified electrician or
service person.
2. Neither Viking Range, LLC nor the dealer can accept
any liability for damage to the microwave oven or
personal injury resulting from failure to observe the
correct electrical connection procedures.
RADIO OR TV INTERFERENCE
Should there be any interference caused by the microwave
oven to your radio or TV, check that the microwave oven
is on a different electrical circuit, relocate the radio or TV
as far away from the microwave oven as feasible or check
position and signal of receiving antenna.
