Original Instructions

To avoid risk of re in the oven cavity:

A. DO NOT overcook food. Carefully attend oven when

paper, plastic, or other combustible materials are placed inside the oven, due to the possibility of ignition.

B. Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before

placing bag in oven.

C. If materials inside the oven ignite, keep oven door

WARNING

⚠

CAUTION

⚠

WARNING

⚠

Liquids such as water, co󰀨ee, 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:

i. DO NOT overheat the liquid. ii. Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it. iii. DO NOT use straight-sided containers with narrow necks. iv. After heating, allow the container to stand in the

microwave oven for a short time before removing the container.

v. Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil

into the container.

To avoid personal injury or property damage, observe the following:

1. DO NOT deep fat fry in oven. Fat could overheat and be hazardous to handle.

2. DO NOT cook or reheat eggs in shell or with an unbroken yolk using microwave energy. Pressure may build up and erupt. Pierce yolk with fork or knife before cooking.

3. Pierce skin of potatoes, tomatoes, and similar foods before cooking with microwave energy. When skin is pierced, steam escapes evenly.

4. DO NOT operate equipment without load or food in oven cavity.

5. Use only popcorn in packages designed and labeled for microwave use. Popping time varies depending on oven wattage. DO NOT continue to heat after popping has stopped. Popcorn will scorch or burn. DO NOT leave oven unattended.

6. DO NOT use regular cooking thermometers in oven. Most cooking thermometers contain mercury and may cause an electrical arc, malfunction, or damage to oven.

7. DO NOT use metal utensils in oven.

8. DO NOT use aluminum foil in oven

9. Never use paper, plastic, or other combustible materials

10. When cooking with paper, plastic, or other combustible

Grounding and Installation

Grounding/Earthing Instructions

WARNING

⚠

Oven MUST be grounded. Grounding reduces risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current if an electrical short occurs. This 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. Consult a qualied electrician or servicer if grounding instructions are not completely understood,

or if doubt exists as to whether the oven is properly grounded. Do not use an extension cord.

If the product power cord is too short, have a qualied electrician install a three-slot receptacle. This oven should be plugged into a separate circuit with the electrical rating as provided in product specications (available at www.acpsolutions.com) and

the oven’s serial plate / rating label. When the oven is on a circuit with other equipment, an increase in cooking times may be required and fuses can be blown.

EXTERNAL EQUIPOTENTIAL EARTHING TERMINAL (export only)

Equipment has secondary earthing terminal. Terminal provides external earthing connection used in addition to earthing prong on plug. Located on outside of oven back, terminal is marked with symbol shown at right

Installation

Unpacking Oven

• Inspect oven for damage such as dents in door or inside oven cavity.

• Report any dents or breakage to source of purchase immediately.

Do not attempt to use oven if damaged.

• Remove all packing materials from oven interior.

• If oven has been stored in extremely cold area, wait a few hours before connecting power.

To avoid risk of electrical shock or death, this oven must be grounded and plug must not be altered.

WARNING

⚠

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install oven. Failure to do so can result in back or other injury

Radio Interference

• Microwave operation may cause interference to radio, television. Reduce or eliminate interference by doing the following:

• Clean door and sealing surfaces of oven according to instructions in “Care and Cleaning” section.

Oven Placement

• Do not install oven next to or above source of heat, such as pizza oven or deep fat fryer. This could cause oven to operate improperly and could shorten life of electrical parts.

• Do not block or obstruct oven lters. Allow access for cleaning.

• Install oven on level counter-top surface.

OVEN CLEARANCES

A. Allow at least 2” (5.1 cm) of clearance around top of oven. Proper air ow around

oven cools electrical components. With restricted air ow, oven may not operate

properly and life of electrical parts is reduced.

B. General market models: There is not an installation clearance requirement for the

back of the oven. HDC21RB2, MCHDC21, HDC21DQ only: Allow at least 1” (2.54 cm) of clearance

around back of oven. C. Allow at least 1” (2.54 cm) of clearance around sides of oven. D. Install oven so oven bottom is at least 3 feet (91.5 cm) above oor.
