SAFETY AND WARNINGS
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS!
●
User servicing: do not repair or replace any part of
the appliance unless specifically recommended in
the manual. All other servicing should be referred to
a qualified technician.
●
Do not use water on grease fires. Smother the
fire or flame or use a dry chemical or foam type
extinguisher.
●
Use only dry oven mitts or potholders. Moist or
damp potholders on hot surfaces could result in
burns from steam. Do not let potholders touch hot
areas or heating elements. Do not use a towel or a
bulky cloth for a potholder. It could catch fire.
●
Do not heat unopened food containers. They can
build up pressure that may cause the container to
burst and result in injury.
●
Safe food handling: leave food in the oven for as
short a time as possible before and after cooking.
This is to avoid contamination by organisms which
may cause food poisoning. Take particular care
during warm weather.
●
Always keep oven vents unobstructed.
●
Do not operate your appliance by means of an
external timer or separate remote control system.
●
Caution: hot air can blow from the vent at the base
of the oven as part of the oven’ cooling system.
●
Placement of oven shelves: always position shelves
in the desired location while the oven is cool (before
preheating). If a shelf must be removed while the
oven is hot, do not let the oven mitts or potholder
contact hot heating elements in the
oven or the base of the oven.

SAFETY AND WARNINGS
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS!
●
Do not clean the oven seal or use any oven-cleaning
products on it. It is essential for a good seal, which
ensures that the oven operates efficiently. Care
should be taken not to rub, damage or move it.
●
Do not use oven cleaners, harsh/abrasive cleaning
agents, waxes, or polishes. No commercial oven
cleaner, oven liner, or protective coating of any kind
should be used in or around any part of the oven. Do
not use harsh/abrasive cleaners, scourers or sharp
metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since
they scratch
the surface, which may result in the glass shattering.
●
Clean only the parts listed in this manual.
●
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean any part of the
oven.
●
Do not store things children might want above the
oven. Children could be burned or injured while
climbing on the oven to retrieve items.
●
Do not install or operate the appliance if it is
damaged or not working properly. If you receive a
damaged product, contact your dealer or installer
immediately.
●
Use only bakeware approved for oven use. Follow
the bakeware manufacturer’s instructions.
●
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic
Enforcement Act requires businesses to warn
customers of potential exposure to substances which
are known by the State of California to cause cancer
or reproductive harm. Small amounts of harmful
chemicals are given off in the oven’ self-cleaning
cycle from insulation and food decomposition.
Significant exposure to these substances can cause
cancer and reproductive harm. Venting with a hood
or open window, and wiping out excess food spills
prior to self cleaning the oven reduces exposure.

cavity:
●
Do not overcook food. Carefully attend appliance
when paper, plastic or other combustible materials
are placed inside the microwave oven to facilitate
cooking.
●
Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags
before placing bag in microwave oven.

SAFETY AND WARNINGS
INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW
About microwave cooking
●
Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards outside of dish.
●
Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of time indicated and add more
as needed. Food severely overcooked can smoke or ignite.
●
Cover foods while cooking. Check recipe or cookbook for suggestions: paper towels,
wax paper, microwave plastic wrap or a lid. Covers prevent spattering and help foods
to cook evenly.
●
Shield with small flat pieces of aluminum foil any thin areas of meat or poultry to
prevent overcooking before dense, thick areas are cooked thoroughly.
●
Stir foods from outside to center of dish once or twice during cooking, if possible.
●
Turn foods over once during microwaving to speed cooking of foods such as chicken
and hamburgers. Large items like roasts must be turned over at least once.
●
Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway through cooking both from top to bottom
and from the center of the dish to the outside.
●
Add standing time. Remove food from microwave oven and stir, if possible.
Cover for standing time which allows the food to finish cooking without overcooking.
●
Check for doneness. Look for signs indicating that cooking temperatures have been
reached.
Doneness signs include:
●
Food steams throughout, not just at edge.
●
Center bottom of dish is very hot to the touch.
●
Poultry thigh joints move easily.
●
Meat and poultry show no pinkness.
●
Fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
