Electrical Requirements  
WARNING  
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS  
For all cord connected appliances:  
The microwave oven 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. The microwave oven 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.  
Electrical Shock Hazard  
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.  
Do not remove ground prong.  
Do not use an adapter.  
WARNING: Improper use of the grounding plug can  
result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified  
electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are  
not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether  
the microwave oven is properly grounded.  
Do not use an extension cord.  
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,  
fire, or electrical shock.  
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 microwave oven.  
Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

remove filter. To reinstall, place the filter into its slotted area – wire  
mesh side up, replace vent grille, and secure with screws.

of the microwave oven, and is replaceable. Remove bulb cover  
screws, and open the bulb cover. Replace bulb, close bulb cover,  
and secure with screws.

at the top front of the microwave oven, under the bulb cover, and  
is replaceable. Remove two screws on the vent grille, tilt the grille  
forward, and lift it out. Remove bulb cover screw, open bulb cover  
and replace bulb. Close bulb cover, and secure with screw.  
Replace vent grille, and secure with screws.  
To avoid damage to the microwave oven caused by arcing due to soil

Recommended Solutions  
Microwave oven will  
not operate  
Check the following:  
Household fuse or circuit breaker - If a household fuse has blown or a circuit breaker has tripped, replace the  
fuse or reset the circuit breaker. If the problem continues, call an electrician.  
Magnetron - Try to heat 1 cup (250 mL) of cold water for 2 minutes at 100% cooking power. If water does not  
heat, try the steps in the bullets below. If microwave oven still does not operate, call for service.  
Door - Firmly close door. On some models, if a packaging spacer is attached to inside of the door, remove it,  
then firmly close door.  
If a message about the door appears in the display, the door has been closed for 5 minutes or more without the  
microwave oven being started. This occurs to avoid unintended starting of the microwave oven. Open and close  
the door, then start the cycle.  
Control - Make sure control is set properly. Make sure Control Lock is off. Make sure Demo Mode (on some  
models) is off.  
Arcing in the  
microwave oven  
Check the following:  
Soil buildup - Soil buildup on cavity walls, microwave inlet cover, cooking rack supports, and area where the  
door touches the frame can cause arcing. See “General Cleaning” in “Microwave Oven Care” section.  
Turntable alternates  
rotation directions  
This is normal and depends on motor rotation at the beginning of the cycle.  
Display shows  
messages  
A flashing “:” or “PF” means there has been a power failure. Reset the clock.  
A letter followed by a number is an error indicator. Call for assistance.  
Fan running during  
cooktop usage  
This is normal. The microwave oven’s cooling fan (on some models), which is separate from the vent fan,  
automatically comes on during microwave oven operation to cool the microwave oven. It may also  
automatically come on and cycle on and off to cool the microwave oven’s controls while the cooktop below is  
being used.  
Radio, TV or cordless  
phone interference  
Check the following:  
Proximity - Move the receiver away from the microwave oven, or adjust the radio or TV antenna.  
Soil - Make sure the microwave oven door and sealing surfaces are clean.  
Frequency - Some 2.4 GHz-based cordless phones and home wireless networks may experience static or noise  
while microwave oven is on. Use a corded phone, a different frequency cordless phone or avoid using these  
items during microwave oven operation.
