(c) DO NOT operate oven when room humidity is excessive.2. This oven is manufactured for counter top household use only, installed 36inches (916 mm) or higher above floor level. It is not intended for built-in oper-ation and is not approved or tested for mobile vehicle, marine, or commercialuse.InstallationDO NOT block air vents. If they are blocked during operation, the oven mayoverheat. If the oven overheats, a thermal safety device will turn the oven off.The oven will remain inoperable until it has cooled.IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS(continued)Roller Ring1. The Roller Ring and oven floor should be cleaned frequently to preventexcessive noise.2. Always replace the Roller Ring and the Glass Tray in their proper positions.3. The Roller Ring must always be used for cooking along with the Glass Tray.Browning Dish:1. Always place the browning dish in the center of the glass tray and ensure itdoes not touch the door or wall of the oven cavity. Failure to do so, maycause arcing which will damage the cavity.2. Only use the browning dish directly upon the glass tray. Never use wire rackwith browning dish. 3. Preheat browning dish only by using Preheat Feature designed into this oven. 4.

5—IMPROPER USE OF THE GROUNDING PLUGCAN RESULT IN A RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. Consult a qualified electrician or service person if the grounding instructions are not com-pletely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded. If itis necessary to use an extension cord, use only a three wire extension cord that has athree prong polarized grounding plug, and a three slot receptacle that will accept the plugon the appliance. The marked rating of the extension cord should be equal to or greaterthan the electrical rating of the appliance.Grounding InstructionsTHIS APPLIANCE 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 electriccurrent. This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a groundingplug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.• Plug into properly installed and grounded 3 prong outlet.• DO NOT remove ground prong.• DO NOT use an adapter.Power Supply1. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becomingentangled in or tripping over a longer cord.2. Longer cord sets or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercisedin their use. Do not let cord hang over edge of a table or counter.3. If a long cord or extension cord is used, (1) the marked electrical rating of the cord setor 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 cordshould be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or table-top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.Wiring RequirementsThe oven must be operated on a SEPARATE CIRCUIT. No other appliance should sharethe circuit with the microwave oven. If it does, the branch circuit fuse may blow or the cir-cuit breaker may trip. The oven must be plugged into at least a 20 AMP, 120 VOLT, 60 HzGROUNDED OUTLET. Where a standard two-prong outlet is encountered, it is thepersonal responsibility and obligation of the consumer to have it replaced with a properlygrounded three-prong outlet. The VOLTAGE used must be the same as specified on thismicrowave oven (120 V, 60 Hz). Using a higher voltage is dangerous and may result in afire or oven damage. Using a lower voltage will cause slow cooking. Panasonic is NOTresponsible for any damages resulting from the use of the oven with any voltage otherthan specified.TV / Radio Interference1. Operation of the microwave oven may cause interference to your radio, TV or similarequipment.2. When there is interference, it may be reduced or eliminated by taking the followingmeasures:(a) Place the radio, TV, etc. away from the microwave oven as far as possible.   (b) Use a properly installed antenna to obtain stronger signal reception.(c) Clean door and sealing surfaces of the oven. (See Care and Cleaning of Your    Microwave Oven)WARNINGINSTALLATION AND GROUNDINGINSTRUCTIONS      (continued)IP1619_38W30AP_00_080110  2008.1.10  13:52  Page 7
6Follow These Safety Precautions When Cooking in Your Oven.IMPORTANTProper cooking depends upon the power, the time setting and quantity offood. If you use a smaller portion than recommended but cook at the timefor the recommended portion, fire could result. 1) HOME CANNING / STERILIZING / DRYING FOODS /SMALL QUANTITIES OF FOODS• DO NOT use your oven for home canning. Your oven cannot maintain the foodat the proper canning temperature. The food may be contaminated and thenspoil.• DO NOT use the microwave oven to sterilize objects (baby bottles, etc.). It isdifficult to keep the oven at the high temperature needed for sterilization.• DO NOT dry meats, herbs, fruits or vegetables in your oven. Small quantitiesof food or foods with low moisture content can dry out, scorch or catch on fire ifoverheated.2) POPCORNPopcorn may be popped in a microwave oven corn popper. Microwave pop-corn which pops in its own package is also available. Follow popcorn manu-facturers’ directions and use a brand suitable for the cooking power of yourmicrowave oven. CAUTION: When using pre-packaged microwave popcorn, you can followrecommended package instructions or use the popcorn pad (refer to page 13).Otherwise, the popcorn may not pop adequately or may ignite and cause afire. Never leave oven unattended when popping popcorn.  Allow the popcornbag to cool before opening, always open the bag facing away from your faceand body to prevent steam burns.3) DEEP FAT FRYING• DO NOT deep fat fry in your microwave oven. Cooking oils may burst into flamesand may cause damage to the oven and perhaps result in burns. Microwave utensilsmay not withstand the temperature of the hot oil, and can shatter or melt.4) FOODS WITH NONPOROUS SKINS• DO NOT COOK/REHEAT WHOLE EGGS, WITH OR WITHOUT THE SHELL.Steam buildup in whole eggs may cause them to explode, and possibly damage theoven or cause injury. Reheating SLICED hard-boiled eggs and cooking SCRAMBLEDeggs is safe.• Potatoes, apples, whole squash and sausages are examples of foods with non-porous skins. These types of foods must be pierced before microwave cooking toprevent them from exploding.CAUTION: Cooking dry or old potatoes can cause fire.Safety PrecautionsIP1619_38W30AP_00_080110  2008.1.10  13:52  Page 8
75) GLASS TRAY / COOKING CONTAINERS / FOIL• Cooking containers get hot during microwaving. Heat is transferred from theHOT food to the container and the Glass Tray. Use pot holders when removingcontainers from the oven or when removing lids or plastic wrap covers fromcooking containers, to avoid burns.• The Glass Tray will get hot during cooking. It should be allowed to cool beforehandling or before paper products, such as paper plates or microwave popcornbags, are placed in the oven for microwave cooking.• When using foil in the oven, allow at least 1-inch (2.5 cm) of space betweenfoil and interior oven walls or door.• Dishes with metallic trim should not be used, as arcing may occur.6) PAPER TOWELS / CLOTHS• DO NOT use paper towels or cloths which contain a synthetic fiber woven intothem. The synthetic fiber may cause the towel to ignite. Use paper towelingunder supervision.7) BROWNING DISHES / OVEN COOKING BAGS• Browning dishes or grills are designed for microwave cooking only. Always fol-low instructions provided by the manufacturer. DO NOT preheat browning dishmore than 6 minutes.• If an oven cooking bag is used for microwave cooking, prepare according topackage directions. DO NOT use a wire twist-tie to close bag, instead useplastic ties, cotton string or a strip cut from the open end of the bag.8) THERMOMETERS• DO NOT use a conventional meat thermometer in your oven. Arcing mayoccur.  Microwave-safe thermometers are available for both meat and candy.9) BABY FORMULA / BABY FOOD• DO NOT heat baby formula or baby food in the microwave oven. The glass jaror surface of the food may appear warm while the interior can be so hot as toburn the infant’s mouth and esophagus.10) REHEATING PASTRY PRODUCTS• When reheating pastry products, check temperatures of any fillings before eat-ing. Some foods have fillings which heat faster and can be extremely hot, whilethe surface remains warm to the touch (ex. Jelly Donuts).11) GENERAL OVEN USAGE GUIDELINES• DO NOT use the oven for any purpose other than the preparation of food.Safety Precautions (continued)IP1619_38W30AP_00_080110  2008.1.10  13:52  Page 9
