MICROWAVE HOOD COMBINATION SAFETY

Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety

messages.

This is the safety alert symbol. This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING."

These words mean:

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately

follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow instructions.

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

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:

[] Read all instructions before using the microwave oven. [] Read and follow the specific "PRECAUTIONS TO

AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY" found in this section.

[] The microwave oven must be grounded. Connect only

to properly grounded outlet. See "GROUNDING

INSTRUCTIONS" found in this section and in the

provided Installation Instructions.

[] Install or locate the microwave oven only in

accordance with the provided Installation Instructions.

[] Some products such as whole eggs in the shell and

sealed containers - for example, closed glass jars - are able to explode and should not be heated in the

microwave oven.

[] Use the microwave oven only for its intended use as

described in this manual. Do not use corrosive chemicals or vapors in the microwave oven. This type of oven is specifically designed to heat, cook, or dry

food. It is not designed for industrial or laboratory use.

[] As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary

when used by children.

[] Do not operate the microwave oven if it has a

damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly, or if it has been damaged or dropped.

[] The microwave oven should be serviced only by

qualified service personnel. Call an authorized service company for examination, repair, or adjustment.

[] See door surface cleaning instructions in the

"Microwave Oven Care" section.

[] To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:

- Do not overcook food. Carefully attend the microwave oven when paper, plastic, or other combustible materials are placed

inside the oven to facilitate cooking.

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

placing bags in oven.

- If materials inside the oven ignite, keep oven door closed, turn

oven off, and disconnect the power cord, or shut off power at

the fuse or circuit breaker panel.

- Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do not leave

paper products, cooking utensils, or food in the cavity when not in use.

[] Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea are able to be overheated

beyond the boiling point without appearing to be boiling. 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 THE CONTAINER IS DISTURBED OR A SPOON OR OTHER

UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE MQUID. To reduce the risk of injury to persons:

- Do not overheat the liquid.

- Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it.

- Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.

- After heating, allow the container to stand in the microwave

oven for a short time before removing the container.

- Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil into the container.

[] Oversized foods or oversized metal utensils should not be

inserted in the microwave oven as they may create a fire or risk of electric shock.

[] Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can burn off the

pad and touch electrical parts involving a risk of electric shock.

SAVE THESE iNSTRUCTiONS

iMPORTANT SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS

[] Suitable for use above both gas and electric cooking

equipment.

[] Intended to be used above ranges with maximum width of

36" (91.44 cm).

[] Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently - Grease should not

be allowed to accumulate on hood or filter.

[] Do not use paper products when appliance is operated in

the "PAN BROWN" mode (on models with this feature).

[] Do not store any materials, other than manufacturer's

recommended accessories, in this oven when not in use.

[] Do not store anything directly on top of the microwave

oven when the microwave oven is in operation.

[] When flambeing foods under the hood, turn the fan on.

[] Use care when cleaning the vent-hood filter. Corrosive

cleaning agents, such as lye-based oven cleaners, may damage the filter.

[] Do not cover or block any openings on the microwave oven. [] Do not store this microwave oven outdoors. Do not use the

microwave oven near water - for example, near a kitchen

sink, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, or similar

locations.

[] Do not immerse cord or plug in water. [] Keep cord away from heated surfaces.

[] Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter. [] Do not mount over a sink.

[] Do not cover racks or any other part of the oven with metal

foil. This will cause overheating of the oven.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY

(a) Do not attempt to operate this oven with the door open (c) Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. It is particularly

since open-door operation can result in harmful exposure to microwave energy. It is important not to defeat or tamper with the safety interlocks.

(b) Do not place any object between the oven front face and

the door or allow soil or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.

important that the oven door close properly and that there is no damage to the:

(1) Door (bent), (2) Hinges and latches (broken or loosened), (3) Door seals and sealing surfaces.

(d) The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone

except properly qualified service personnel.

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet. Do not remove ground prong.

Do not use an adapter. Do not use an extension cord.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,

fire, or electrical shock.

Observe all governing codes and ordinances. Required: [] A 120 Volt, 60 Hz, AC only, 15- or 20-amp electrical supply

with a fuse or circuit breaker.

Recommended:

[] A time-delay fuse or time-delay circuit breaker. [] A separate circuit serving only this appliance.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

[] For all cord connected appliances:

The microwave oven 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. The microwave 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.

WARNING: Improper use of the grounding plug can

result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are

not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the microwave oven is properly grounded.

Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or serviceman install

an outlet near the microwave oven.
