IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This product requires a three-prong grounded outlet. 
The installer must perform a ground continuity check 
on the power outlet box before beginning the 
installation to insure that the outlet box is properly 
grounded. If not properly grounded, or if the outlet 
box does not meet electrical requirements noted 
(under ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS), a qualified 
electrician should be employed to correct any 
deficiencies.
CAUTION: For personal 
safety, remove house fuse or 
open circuit breaker before 
beginning installation to 
avoid severe or fatal shock 
injury.
CAUTION: For personal safety, the mounting 
surface must be capable of supporting the 
cabinet load, in addition to the added weight of 
this 59 pound product, plus additional oven loads 
of up to 50 pounds or a total weight of 109 
pounds.
CAUTION: For personal safety, this product 
cannot be installed in cabinet arrangements such 
as an island or a peninsula. It must be mounted to 
BOTH a top cabinet AND a wall.
NOTE: For easier installation and personal 
safety, it is recommended that two people install 
this product.
IMPORTANT–PLEASE READ CAREFULLY. FOR 
PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE 
PROPERLY GROUNDED TO AVOID SEVERE OR 
FATAL SHOCK.
The power cord of this 
appliance is equipped 
with a three-prong 
(grounding) plug which 
mates with a standard 
three-prong (grounding) 
wall receptacle to 
minimize the possibility 
of electric shock hazard 
from this appliance.
You should have the wall receptacle and circuit 
checked by a qualified electrician to make sure 
the receptacle is properly grounded. 
Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is 
encountered, it is very important to have it 
replaced with a properly grounded three-prong 
wall receptacle, installed by a qualified 
electrician.
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT, 
DEFORM OR REMOVE ANY OF THE PRONGS 
FROM THE POWER CORD. DO NOT USE WITH 
AN EXTENSION CORD.
