Installation Instructions
Unpacking
Electrical Requirements
1. Empty the microwave oven of any packing materials.
2. Clean the inside with a soft, damp cloth.
3. Check for damage, such as:
WARNING
■
■
■
a door that is not lined up correctly
damage around the door, or
dents on the interior or exterior of the microwave oven.
If there is any damage, do not operate the microwave oven until
a designated service technician has checked it and made any
needed repairs.
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Location Requirements
WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
Use two or more people to move and install
microwave oven.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
Required:
IMPORTANT: The control side of the microwave oven is the heavy
side. Handle the microwave oven gently. The weight of the
microwave oven is over 35 lbs (15.9 kg).
■
A 120 Volt, 60 Hz, AC only, 15- or 20-amp electrical supply
with a fuse or circuit breaker.
Recommended:
■
Place the microwave oven on a cart, counter, table or shelf that
is strong enough to hold the microwave oven and the food and
utensils you place inside it.
■
A time-delay fuse or time-delay circuit breaker.
■
A separate circuit serving only this microwave oven.
■
The microwave oven should be at a temperature above 50°F
(10°C) for proper operation.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
■
For all cord connected appliances:
NOTE: Some models can be built into a wall or cabinet by using
one of the trim kits listed in the “Assistance or Service” section.
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.
■
Do not block the exhaust vents or air intake openings. Allow
a few inches of space at the back and side of the microwave
oven where the exhaust vents are located. Blocking the
exhaust vents could cause damage to the microwave oven, as
well as poor cooking results.
■
Make sure the microwave oven legs are in place to ensure
proper airflow. If vents are blocked, a sensitive thermal device
may automatically turn the microwave oven off. The
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.
microwave oven should work properly once it has cooled.
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.

Microwave Oven Care
General Cleaning
IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and
the microwave oven is cool. Always follow label instructions on
cleaning products.
■
Door and exterior: mild soap and water, or glass cleaner
applied to paper towel.
■
■
Control panel: sponge or soft cloth and water.
To avoid damage to the microwave oven caused by arcing due to
soil buildup, keep cavity, microwave inlet cover, cooking rack
supports, and area where the door touches the frame clean.
Stainless steel (on some models): mild soap and water, then
rinse with clean water and dry with soft cloth, or use stainless
steel cleaner.
Clean with mild soap, water and a soft cloth or sponge, or as
indicated below.
■
■
Turntable: mild soap and water or dishwasher.
Convection rack: mild soap, water and washcloth. Dishwasher
cleaning is not recommended.
Troubleshooting
First try the solutions suggested here or visit our website and reference FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)
to possibly avoid the cost of a service call.
Microwave oven will not operate
Check the following:
Turntable alternates rotation directions
■
This is normal and depends on motor rotation at the beginning
of the cycle.
■
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.
Odor and smoke coming from microwave oven during
convection cooking
■
Magnetron
■
This is normal for the first few convection cycles. The odor will
dissipate with repeated use.
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.
Radio, TV or cordless phone interference
Check the following:
■
Door
■
■
■
Proximity
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.
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
■
Control
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.
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.
