Important Safety Information
READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE |
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS |
This equipment generates and uses ISM frequencies and if not installed and used properly in strict accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions,
it may cause interference to radio and television reception. It has been type-tested and found to comply with limits for ISM Equipment pursuant to Part 18 of FCC Rules, which are designed
to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in particular installations. If this equipment does cause interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning
the equipment off and on, the interference can be corrected by one or more of the following methods:
•Reorient the receiving antenna of radio or television.
•Move the microwave oven away from the receiver.
•Plug the microwave into a different outlet so that microwave and receiver are on different branch circuits.
The manufacturer is not responsible for any radio or TV interference caused by unauthorized
modification of this appliance. It is the responsibility of the user to correct such interference.
AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY
•Do not attempt to operate the appliance with the door open as this can result in harmful exposure to microwave energy. Do not tamper with or attempt to defeat the safety locks.
•Do not place any object between the front face and the door or allow soil or cleaner residue to accumulate on the sealing surfaces.
•Do not operate the appliance if it is damaged. The door must close properly and there must be no damage to the hinges, latches, door, door seals or sealing surfaces.
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electrical shock by providing an escape wire for the electrical current.
This appliance is equipped with a cord that has a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The power cord must be plugged into an outlet that is properly grounded. If the outlet is a standard 2-prong wall outlet, it is your responsibility to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
The serial rating plate indicates the voltage and frequency the appliance is designed for.
WARNING - Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or service agent if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD
Do not connect your appliance to extension cords or together with another appliance in the same wall outlet. Do not splice the power cord. Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third ground prong from the power cord.
If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similar qualified person in order to avoid hazard.
SAFETY REQUIREMENTS
Ensure that component parts are replaced with like components and that servicing is done by factory authorized service personnel, to minimize the risk of possible ignition due to incorrect parts or improper service.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
Do not cover or block any ventilation openings in this appliance.

Important Safety Information
READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAFETY REQUIREMENTS |
SAFETY - SUPERHEATED LIQUID |
This appliance is specifically designed to heat, cook or dry food. It is not designed for industrial or laboratory use.
Do not store or use this appliance outdoors. Do not use this appliance near water.
Do not overcook food. Carefully watch the appliance when it is in use.
Remove wire twist-ties before placing items in the appliance.
Do not use the appliance for storage purposes. Do not leave items inside the appliance when not in use.
Do not heat oil or fat for deep frying as it is difficult to control the temperature of oil in a microwave.
Pierce foods with thick skins such as potatoes, squash and apples before cooking.
Some items such as whole eggs or sealed containers have the possibility of exploding when heated and should not be placed in this appliance.
Cooking utensils may become hot because of heat transferred from heated food. Pot holders may be required.
Only use thermometers which are specifically designed for use in microwaves.
Do not operate any heating or cooking appliance beneath this appliance.
Ensure that the glass tray and rollers are in the correct position before use to avoid possible spills.
Do not operate this appliance when it is empty as this will increase the heat around the magnetron and can damage the appliance or cause a fire.
If items inside the appliance should ignite, keep the door closed, turn the appliance off and disconnect the power cord.
Liquids are able to be overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing to be boiling due to the surface tension of the liquid. Visible
bubbling will not always be present when the liquid is removed from the appliance. This could result
in very hot liquids suddenly boiling over when a utensil or other item such as a tea bag is inserted into the liquid.
To reduce the risk of injury:
•Do not overheat liquids. Do not heat any liquid for more than 2 minutes per cup.
•Stir liquids before and halfway through heating.
•Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks as this can cause a build up of steam.
•Superheated liquid can begin to spontaneously boil when removed from the microwave.
After heating, allow the liquid to stand in the microwave for 30 seconds before removing.
•Use extreme care when inserting a utensil or other item into hot liquids.
The contents of milk bottles and baby food jars should be stirred or shaken and the temperature checked before serving in order to avoid burns.
Do not defrost frozen beverages, especially carbonated beverages, in this appliance as they could explode.
Hot foods and steam can cause burns. Be careful when opening any container than has been heated in the appliance. Direct the opening away from hands and face to avoid burns.
SAFETY - ARCING
Arcing refers to sparks inside the microwave while it is in operation. Arcing is caused by:
•Metal or foil inside the appliance.
•Recycled paper towels being used inside the appliance, as these can contain small pieces of metal.
If arcing is present, stop operation and remove any metal or paper towels from the appliance.

COOKING TECHNIQUES |
•Remove all packing materials from the inside and outside of the appliance. Do not remove the cardboard mica sheet covering the magnetron.
•Check the appliance for damage before using, such as a misaligned or bent door, damaged door seals, broken or loose door hinges or latches, or dents inside the cavity or on the door. If there is any damage to the appliance, do not use it, return it to its point of purchase or contact consumer care.
•The appliance must be placed on a fl at, stable surface that is able to hold its weight and
the heaviest food likely to be placed in the appliance.
•Do not use this appliance where heat, moisture or high humidity are generated.
•Do not clean this appliance with or use near combustible materials.
•Allow 20 cm of space above the appliance, 10 cm at the back of the appliance and 5 cm on both sides for proper air fl ow around the appliance. Do not block any ventilation openings on the appliance.
•Do not operate the appliance without the glass tray, roller support and shaft in their correct positions.
To achieve the best results when cooking in this appliance, follow the suggestions below.
STIRRING
Stir foods while cooking to distribute heat evenly. Food at the outside of the dish absorbs more energy and will heat more quickly so stir from the outside of the dish toward the center.
ARRANGEMENT
Arrange unevenly shaped foods thicker, meatier parts toward the outside of the turntable so they receive more heat. To prevent overcooking, place delicate items toward the center of the turntable.
SHIELDING
Delicate foods can be shielded with narrow strips of aluminum foil to prevent overcooking. Use only small amounts of foil as this can cause arcing and damage to the appliance.
TURNING
Turn food over midway through cooking to expose all parts to the microwave energy. This is important with large items and meat.
STANDING
Foods cooked in a microwave build up internal heat and continue to cook for a few minutes after heating stops. Let foods stand to complete cooking, especially meats and liquids. All liquids should be allowed to stand for a few minutes after cooking and should be shaken or stirred before consuming.
ADDING MOISTURE
Microwave energy is attracted to water molecules. Food that is uneven in moisture content should be covered and allowed to stand after cooking to allow the heat to disperse evenly. Add a small amount of water to dry food to help it cook.

Plastic: Only use if labeled “microwave safe”.
Microwavable Plastic Wrap: Used to retain steam. Leave a small opening to avoid a build up of steam. Do not place directly on food.
Glass and Ceramic Bowls and Dishes: Use for heating or cooking.
Paper Plates and Cups: Use for short term heating at low temperatures. Do not use recycled paper as they can contain metal and could ignite.
Paper Towels and Napkins: Use for short term heating and covering. They can absorb excess moisture and prevent splattering. Do not use recycled paper towels as they can contain metal and could ignite.
Wax Paper: Use as a cover to prevent splattering.
Thermometers: Only use those that are labeled “microwave safe” and follow all directions. Check the food in several places. Conventional thermometers can be used once the food has been removed from the microwave.
NOT RECOMMENDED
Glass Jars and Bottles: Regular glass is too thin to be used in a microwave. It can shatter and cause damage or injury.
Paper Bags: These are a fire hazard and could ignite. The only exception is popcorn bags, which are designed for microwave use.
Styrofoam Plates and Cups: These can melt and leave an unhealthy residue on food.
Plastic Storage and Food Containers: These can melt and ignite.
Metal Utensils: These can cause arcing and damage to the appliance. Remove all metal before operation.
