When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions
should be followed, including the following:
WARNING - To reduce the risk of burns, electric shock,
fire, injury to persons or exposure to excessive microwave
energy:
1. Read all instructions before using the appliance.
2. Read and follow the specific "PRECAUTIONS
TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE
MICROWAVE ENERGY" on page 4.
3. This appliance must be grounded. Connect only
to properly grounded outlet. See "GROUNDING
INSTRUCTIONS" on page 4.
4. Install or locate this appliance only in accordance with
the provided installation instructions.
5. Some products such as whole eggs and sealed
containers–for example, closed glass jars are able to
explode and should not be heated in this oven.
6. Use this appliance only for its intended use as described
in this manual. Do not use corrosive chemicals or vapors
in this appliance. This type of oven is specifically
designed to heat, cook or dry food. It is not designed
for industrial or laboratory use.
7. As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary
when used by children.
8. Do not operate this appliance if it has a damaged cord
or plug, if it is not working properly, or if it has been
damaged or dropped.
9. This appliance should be serviced only by qualified
service personnel. Contact nearest Authorized Servicer
for examination, repair or adjustment.
10. Do not cover or block any openings on the appliance.
11. Do not store this appliance outdoors. Do not use this
product near water—for example, near a kitchen sink,
in a wet basement, near a swimming pool, or similar
locations.
12. Do not immerse cord or plug in water.
13. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
14. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.
15. When cleaning surfaces of door and oven that come
together upon closing the door, use only mild, non-
abrasive soaps or detergents applied with a sponge
or soft cloth.
16. To reduce the risk of fire in the microwave oven cavity:
a. Do not overcook food. Carefully attend to appliance
when paper, plastic or other combustible materials
are placed inside the microwave oven to facilitate
cooking.
b. Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags
before placing bag in microwave oven.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
c. If materials inside the microwave oven should
ignite, keep microwave oven door closed, turn
microwave oven off and disconnect the power
cord or shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker
panel.
d. Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do not
leave paper products, cooking utensils or food in
the cavity when not in use.
17. Liquids, such as water, coffee or tea are able to be
overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing
to be boiling due to surface tension of the liquid. Visible
bubbling or boiling when the container is removed from
the microwave oven is not always present. THIS COULD
RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING
OVER WHEN A SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS
INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.
To reduce the risk of injury to persons:
a. Do not overheat the liquid.
b. Stir the liquid both before and halfway through
heating it.
c. Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow
necks. Use a wide-mouthed container.
d. After heating, allow the container to stand in the
microwave oven at least for 20 seconds before
removing the container.
e. Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other
utensil into the container.
18. Do not use this microwave oven to heat corrosive
chemicals (for example, sulfides and chlorides). Vapors
from such corrosive chemicals may interact with the
contact and springs of the safety interlock switches
thereby rendering them inoperable.
19. Never heat oil or fat for deep frying as you cannot
control the temperature and doing so may lead to
overheating and fire.
20. Do not operate the oven without the glass tray in place.
Be sure it is properly sitting on the rotating base.
21. Use care when cleaning the vent hood filters. Corrosive
cleaning agents such as lye-based oven cleaners may
damage the filters.
22. Clean the ventilating hood frequently. Do not allow
grease to accumulate on the hood or the filters.
23. Suitable for use above both gas and electric cooking
equipment up to 30 inches wide.
24. Do not use this oven for commercial purposes. It is
designed for household use only.
25. When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.
Keep the area under the hood properly ventilated at
all times. Turn off cooking equipment if you see flames
or a fire occurs.
