Grounding Instructions This 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 electric current. This appliance 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. WARNINGimproper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or service person if the grounding instructions are not completely understood or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a three wire extension cord that has a three blade grounding plug, and a three slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the appliance. The marked rating of the extension cord should be equal to or greater than the electrical rating of the appliance. Power Supply 1. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. 2. Longer cord sets or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. 3. If a long cord or extension cord is used, (a) the marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, (b) the extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord, and

(c) the longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally. Wiring Requirements 1. The oven must be on a SEPARATE CIRCUIT. No other appliance should share the circuit with the microwave oven. If it does, the branch circuit fuse may blow, the circuit breaker may trip, or the food may cook slower than the times recommended in this manual. 2. The VOLTAGE used must be the same as specified on this microwave oven (120 V, 60 Hz). Using a higher voltage is dangerous and may result in a fire or other incident causing oven damage.

Exhibit 7

&8 ACLAPUO1 Follow These Safety Precautions When Cooking in Your Oven IMPORTANT Proper cooking depends upon the power, the time set and the quantity of food. If you use a smaller portion than recommended and cook at the time for the recommended portion, fire could result. 1) HOME CANNING / DRYING FOODS / SMALL QUANTITIES OF FOODS DO NOT use your oven for home canning, your oven cannot maintain the food at the proper canning temperature. Improperly canned food may spoil and be dangerous to consume,

* DO NOT dry meats, herbs, fruits or vegetables in your oven, Small quantities of food or foods with low moisture content can dry out, scorch or catch on fire if overheated. 2) POPCORN Popcorn may be popped in a microwave oven corn popper. Microwave popcorn which pops in its own package is also available. Follow popcorn manufacturers directions and use a brand suitable for the wattage of your microwave oven. CAUTION:

When using pre-packaged microwave popcorn, follow recommended package instructions. Check package weight before using the Popcorn pad (see Popcorn Pad section). Set the oven for the weight of the popcorn package. if these instructions are not followed, the popcorn may not pop adequately or may ignite and cause a fire. Never leave oven unattended when popping popcorn. Allow the popcorn bag to cool before opening, always open the bag away from your face and body to prevent steam burns. 3) DEEP FAT FRYING

+ DO NOT attempt to deep fat fry in your microwave oven, Cooking oils may burst into flames and may cause damage to the oven and perhaps result in burns, Microwave utensils may not be able to withstand the temperature of the hot oil, and could shatter or melt. 4) FOODS WITH NONPOROUS SKINS Potatoes, apples, whole eggs, egg yolks, whole squash and sausages are examples of foods with nonporous skins. These types of foods must be pierced before microwave cooking to prevent their bursting.

* Use fresh potatoes for deve and epok until just done, 5) LIQUIDS Heated liquids can erupt if not mixed with air, DO NOT heat liquids in your microwave oven without first stirring. Overheated liquids will erupt. 6) GLASS TRAY / COOKING UTENSILS / FOIL Cooking utensils get hot during microwaving. Heat is transferred from the HOT food to the container and the Glass Tray. Use potholders when removing utensils from the oven or when removing lids or plastic wrap covers from cooking utensils to avoid burns.

* The Glass Tray will get hot during cooking. It should be allowed to cool before handling or before paper products, such as paper plates or microwave popcorn bags, are placed in the oven for microwave cooking.

* When using foil, skewers, warming rack or utensils made of metal in the oven, allow at least 1-inch (2.5 cm) of space between meta! material and interior oven walls. If arcing occurs (sparking), remove metal material (skewers, etc.) and/or transfer to a non-metallic container. Dishes with metallic trim should not be used, as arcing may occur,

+ If an entree is heated in a foil tray, maintain at least 1-inch

(2.5 cm) spacing from the oven walls. 7) PAPER TOWELS / CLOTHS DO NOT use paper towels or cloths which contain a synthetic fiber woven into them. The synthetic fiber may cause the towel to ignite.
