WARNING!

ARCING

If you see arcing, press the CANCEL/OFF pad and correct the problem.

Arcing is the microwave term for sparks in the oven. Arcing is caused by:

Metal or foil touching the side of the oven.

Operating the microwave with no food inside for more than a minute or two may cause damage to the oven and could start a fire. It increases the heat around the magnetron and can shorten the life of the oven.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

WARNING!

MICROWAVE-SAFE COOKWARE

Make sure all cookware used in your microwave oven is suitable for microwaving. Most glass casseroles, cooking dishes, measuring cups, custard cups, pottery or china dinnerware which does not have metallic trim or glaze with a metallic sheen can be used. Some cookware is labeled “suitable

for microwaving.”

If you use a meat thermometer while cooking, make sure it is safe for use in microwave ovens.

Do not use recycled paper products. Recycled

SDSHU WRZHOV QDSNLQV DQG ZD[HG SDSHU FDQ contain metal flecks which may cause arcing

or ignite. Paper products containing nylon or nylon filaments should be avoided, as they

may also ignite.

Some styrofoam trays (like those that meat is packaged on) have a thin strip of metal embedded in the bottom. When microwaved, the metal can burn the floor of the oven or ignite a paper towel.

Do not use the microwave to dry newspapers.

Not all plastic wrap is suitable for use in microwave ovens. Check the package for proper use.

3DSHU WRZHOV ZD[HG SDSHU DQG SODVWLF ZUDS can be used to cover dishes in order to retain moisture and prevent spattering. Be sure to vent plastic wrap so steam can escape.

Cookware may become hot because of heat transferred from the heated food. Pot holders may be needed to handle the cookware.

“Boilable” cooking pouches and tightly closed plastic bags should be slit, pierced or vented as directed by package. If they are not, plastic

could burst during or immediately after cooking,

SRVVLEO\ UHVXOWLQJ LQ LQMXU\ $OVR SODVWLF VWRUDJH containers should be at least partially uncovered because they form a tight seal. When cooking with containers tightly covered with plastic wrap, remove covering carefully and direct steam away from hands and face.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING³,PSURSHU XVH RI WKH JURXQGLQJ SOXJ FDQ UHVXOW LQ D ULVN RI HOHFWULF VKRFN

This appliance 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.

This appliance is equipped with a power 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 qualified electrician or service technician if the GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS are not completely

XQGHUVWRRG RU LI GRXEW H[LVWV DV WR ZKHWKHU WKH appliance is properly grounded.

,I WKH RXWOHW LV D VWDQGDUG SURQJ ZDOO RXWOHW LW LV your personal responsibility and obligation to have

Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord.

:H GR QRW UHFRPPHQG XVLQJ DQ H[WHQVLRQ FRUG ZLWK this appliance. If the power cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or service technician install an outlet near the appliance. (See EXTENSION CORDS section.)

For best operation, plug this appliance into its own electrical outlet to prevent flickering of lights, blowing of fuse or tripping of circuit breaker.

ADAPTER PLUGS

Usage situations where appliance’s power cord will be disconnected infrequently.

Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, we strongly recommend against the use of an adapter plug.

However, if you still elect to use an adapter, where local codes permit, a TEMPORARY CONNECTION may be made to a properly

JURXQGHG SURQJ ZDOO UHFHSWDFOH E\ WKH XVH RI D 8/ OLVWHG DGDSWHU which is available at most local hardware stores.

The larger slot in the adapter must be aligned with the larger slot in the wall receptacle to provide proper polarity in the connection of the power cord.

(Adapter plugs not permitted in Canada)

Align large prongs/slots

TEMPORARY	Ensure proper ground
	and firm connection
METHOD	before use.

CAUTION: Attaching the adapter ground terminal to the wall receptacle cover screw does not ground the appliance unless the cover screw is metal, and not insulated, and the wall receptacle is grounded through the house wiring.

You should have the circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the receptacle is properly grounded.

When disconnecting the power cord from the adapter, always hold the adapter with one hand. If this is not done, the adapter ground terminal is very likely to break with repeated use. Should this happen, DO NOT USE the appliance until a proper ground has again been established.

Usage situations where appliance’s power cord will be disconnected frequently.

Do not use an adapter plug in these situations because frequent disconnection of the power cord places undue strain on the adapter and leads to eventual failure of the adapter ground terminal. You should

PLFURZDYH VDIH GLVK

Foods that spoil easily should not be allowed to sit out for more than one hour after defrosting. Room temperature promotes the growth of harmful bacteria.

For more even defrosting of larger foods, such as roasts, use Weight Defrost. Be sure large meats are completely defrosted before cooking.

When defrosted, food should be cool but softened in all areas. If still slightly icy,

return to the microwave very briefly, or let it stand a few minutes.
