oven could result in injury.
Do not boil eggs in a microwave oven. Pressure will build up
inside egg yolk and will cause it to burst, possibly resulting in
injury.
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.
Foods with unbroken outer “skin” such as potatoes, hot dogs,
sausages, tomatoes, apples, chicken livers and other giblets
and egg yolks should be pierced to allow steam to escape
during cooking.
Avoid heating baby food in glass jars, even
with the lid off. Make sure all infant food is thoroughly cooked.
Stir food to distribute the heat evenly. Be careful to prevent
scalding when warming formula. The container may feel cooler
than the formula really is. Always test the formula before
feeding the baby.
Don’t defrost frozen beverages in narrow-necked bottles
(especially carbonated beverages). Even if the container is
opened, pressure can build up. This can cause the container to
burst, possibly resulting in injury.

COMIDAS
No haga rosetas o palomitas de maíz en el microondas a no
ser que esté usando un accesorio especial para prepararlas o
que esté empleando rosetas o palomitas de maíz que indiquen
ser válidas para el uso de hornos microondas.
Algunos productos tales como huevos enteros y envases
sellados – por ejemplo: tarros de vidrio cerrados – pueden
explotar y por esto no se deben calentar en el horno
microondas. Dicho uso del horno microondas podrá producir
lesiones.
No hierva huevos dentro de un horno microondas. Se
generará presión dentro de la yema del huevo que causará
que explote pudiendo, posiblemente, dañar a alguien.
Si se pone en marcha el microondas sin tener comida en su
interior por más de un minuto o dos podrían causarse daños
al horno y podría empezar un fuego. Esto hace aumentar
la temperatura alrededor del magnetrón y puede reducir el
período de vida útil del horno.
Las comidas cocinadas en líquidos (como la pasta) pueden
tener cierta tendencia a hervir más rápidamente que los
alimentos que contengan menos humedad. Si esto ocurre,
revise la sección de Cuidado y limpieza del horno microondas
donde encontrará instrucciones en cuanto a la limpieza del
interior del microondas.
No caliente la comida del bebé en jarras de cristal, incluso
si están destapadas. Asegúrese de que los alimentos de los
niños estén bien cocinados. Remueva la comida para distribuir
el calor de forma pareja. Tenga cuidado de que el niño no se
queme al calentar la leche de fórmula. El contenedor puede
parecer más frío de lo que realmente está la fórmula. Pruebe
siempre la fórmula antes de dársela al bebé.
No descongele bebidas congeladas en botellas de cuello
estrecho (especialmente bebidas carbonatadas). Incluso con el
contenedor abierto, podría generarse un aumento de presión.
Esto puede causar que el contenedor explote, lo cual podría
producir daños personales.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING!
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 are not sure if a dish is microwave-safe, use this test:
Place in the oven both the dish you are testing and a glass
PHDVXULQJFXSILOOHGZLWKFXSRIZDWHU³VHWWKHPHDVXULQJ
cup either in or next to the dish. Microwave
30–45 seconds at high. If the dish heats, it should not be used
for microwaving.
If the dish remains cool and only the water in the cup heats,
then the dish is microwave-safe.
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 paper towels,
napkins and waxed paper can 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 foam 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.
Paper towels, waxed paper and plastic wrap 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,
possibly resulting in injury. Also, plastic storage 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.
Use foil only as directed in this guide. TV dinners may be
microwaved in foil trays less than 3/4"high; remove the top
foil cover and return the tray to the box. When using foil in the
microwave oven, keep the foil at least 1" away from the sides
of the oven.
3ODVWLFFRRNZDUH³3ODVWLFFRRNZDUHGHVLJQHGIRUPLFURZDYH
cooking is very useful, but should be used carefully. Even
microwave-safe plastic may not be as tolerant of overcooking
conditions as are glass or ceramic materials and may soften
or char if subjected to short periods of overcooking. In longer
exposures to overcooking, the food and cookware could ignite.
Follow these guidelines:
1. Use microwave-safe plastics only and use them in
strict compliance with the cookware manufacturer’s
recommendations.
2. Do not microwave empty containers.
3. Do not permit children to use plastic cookware without
complete supervision.
THE VENT FAN
The fan will operate automatically under certain conditions (see
Automatic Fan feature). Take care to prevent the starting and
spreading of accidental cooking fires while the vent fan is in use.
Clean the underside of the microwave often.
Do not allow grease to build up on the microwave or the fan
filters.
In the event of a grease fire on the surface units below the
microwave oven, smother a flaming
pan on the surface unit by covering the pan completely with a
lid, a cookie sheet or a flat tray.
6
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Use care when cleaning the vent fan filters. Corrosive cleaning
agents, such as lye-based oven cleaners, may damage the
filters.
When preparing flaming foods under the microwave, turn the
fan on.
Never leave surface units beneath your microwave oven
unattended at high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking and
greasy spillovers that may ignite and spread if the microwave
vent fan is operating. To minimize automatic fan operation, use
adequate sized cookware and use high heat on surface units
only when necessary.
INSTRUCCIONES IMPORTANTES DE SEGURIDAD.
LEA PRIMERO TODA LAS INSTRUCCIONES.
¡PRECAUCIÓN!
Asegúrese de que todos los utensilios de cocina que use en su
horno sean aptos para microondas. Pueden usarse la mayoría
de las cazuelas, platos para cocinar, tazas de medir, tazas de
flanes y botes de cristal, o las vajillas de porcelana que no tienen
decoraciones metálicas o barnices con brillo metálico. Algunos
utensilios tienen la siguiente inscripción: “puede usarse en
microondas.”
Si no está seguro de que un plato pueda usarse en el
microondas, haga esta prueba: Coloque el plato que esté
probando y un vaso de medir con 237 ml (1 taza) de agua en
el horno – ponga la taza de medir dentro o al lado del plato.
Ponga el microondas en marcha, a máxima potencia, durante
30-45 segundos. Si el plato se calienta no debería usarse en el
microondas.
Si el plato se mantiene frío y sólo se calienta la taza, entonces
el plato puede usarse de forma segura en el microondas.
Si usa un termómetro de carne al cocinar con microondas),
asegúrese de que sea apto para ser usado en microondas.
No use productos de papel reciclado. El papel toalla, las
servilletas y el papel de cera reciclados pueden contener
motas metálicas que podrían causar la formación de
arcos eléctricos o incendiarse. Los productos de papel que
contengan nilón o filamentos de nilón tampoco deberían
usarse ya que se podrían incendiar de igual modo.
Algunas bandejas de gomaespuma (como aquellas donde se
empaqueta la carne) poseen una tira fina de metal insertada
en la parte inferior. Si se usan en el horno microondas, el metal
podrá quemar el piso del horno o encender una toalla de
papel.
No use el horno microondas para secar el periódico.
No todos los envoltorios de plástico están preparados para
uso en el horno microondas. Controle el paquete para un uso
adecuado.
Algunas bandejas de plástico (como en las que se empaqueta
la carne) tienen una cinta fina de metal incrustada en el plato.
Al ponerse en el microondas, el metal puede quemar el suelo
del horno o incendiar un papel toalla.
Podrían calentarse los utensilios por el calor transferido por los
alimentos calientes. Puede necesitar usar manoplas ce cocina
para manejar los utensilios.
Al utilizar con el microondas bolsas de cocinar “que puedan
hervir”, así como cualquier bolsa de plástico firmemente
cerrada, deberán cortarse, perforarse o proveer cualquier tipo
de ventilación según indique el paquete. En caso contrario,
el plástico podría explotar mientras se cocina o después,
pudiendo causar daños físicos. Además, los recipientes
de plástico deberían permanecer, al menos, parcialmente
destapados ya que pueden sellarse fuertemente. Cuando
cocine con recipientes firmemente cubiertos con film plástico,
retire la cubierta con cuidado y mantenga el vapor alejado de
sus manos y rostro.
Use papel de aluminio sólo de la forma detallada en este
manual. Cuando use aluminio dentro de un horno microondas,
mantenga el aluminio, al menos, a una pulgada de distancia
de los laterales del horno.

para su uso en microondas son muy prácticos, pero deben
usarse con cuidado. Incluso aquellos utensilios autorizados
para su uso en microondas podrían no ser tan tolerantes
como el cristal o los materiales de cerámica en condiciones
de sobrecalentamiento y podrían ablandarse o carbonizarse
al someterlos a períodos cortos de sobrecalentamiento. En
exposiciones más largas a sobrecalentamiento, la comida y los
utensilios podrían incendiarse.
Siga estas normas:
1. Use solamente plásticos aptos para microondas y
úselos siguiendo estrictamente las recomendaciones del
fabricante de los utensilios.
2. No introduzca en el microondas recipientes
vacíos.
3. No permita que los niños usen utensilios de plástico sin
completa supervisión.

EL VENTILADOR EXTRACTOR
El ventilador se pondrá en funcionamiento de forma
automática bajo ciertas circunstancias (ver función de
Ventilador Automático). Prevenga el que empiece algún
fuego al cocinar y que se extienda mientras el ventilador del
respiradero está en marcha.
Limpie a menudo la parte inferior del microondas. No
permita que se acumule grasa en el microondas o en los
filtros del ventilador.
Si la grasa se incendiara en las unidades de
la cocina (fogones) bajo el horno microondas, sofoque
cualquier sartén en llamas de la unidad de cocina por
completo con una tapa, una bandeja de galletas o
cualquier otra bandeja plana.
GUARDE ESTAS INSTRUCCIONES
Tenga cuidado al limpiar los filtros del ventilador extractor.
Los productos de limpieza corrosivos, como los limpiahornos a base de lejía, pueden dañar los filtros.
Ponga en marcha el extractor cuando
esté cocinando comidas con llama bajo el microondas.
Nunca deje las unidades de la cocina
(fogones) bajo su microondas sin atención cuando se esté
trabajando a altas temperaturas. Cuando la comida entra
en ebullición se generan humos y se derraman grasas
que pudieran incendiarse y propagarse si el ventilador
del microondas está funcionando. Para minimizar el
funcionamiento del extractor automático, use utensilios de
cocina de tamaño adecuado y use el fuego rápido en las
unidades de la cocina (fogones) sólo cuando sea necesario.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
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 understood, or if
doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.
³,PSURSHUXVHRIWKHJURXQGLQJSOXJFDQUHVXOWLQDULVNRIHOHFWULFVKRFN
If the outlet is a standard 2-prong wall outlet, it is your personal
responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly
grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground)
prong from the power cord.
We do not recommend using an extension cord with 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 grounded wall receptacle by the use of a UL listed adapter 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.
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.
(Adapter plugs not
permitted in Canada)
Align large
prongs/slots
TEMPORARY
METHOD
Ensure proper
ground and firm
connection before
use.
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 have the 2-prong wall receptacle replaced with a 3-prong
(grounding) receptacle by a qualified electrician before using the appliance.
PACEMAKERS
Most pacemakers are shielded from interference from electronic products, including microwaves. However, patients with
pacemakers may wish to consult their physicians if they have concerns.

El uso indebido del enchufe de tierra puede resultar en riesgo de descarga eléctrica.
Este electrodoméstico debe estar conectado a tierra. Si se
produjera un cortocircuito, la toma de tierra reduce el riesgo
de descarga eléctrica al proveer un cable de escape para la
corriente eléctrica.
Este electrodoméstico está equipado con un cable de corriente
que dispone de un hilo para toma de tierra con un enchufe con
toma de tierra. El enchufe debe estar conectado a una toma de
corriente que esté debidamente instalada y con salida a tierra.
Consulte con un electricista cualificado o un técnico de
reparaciones si no entiende completamente las instrucciones
sobre la toma de tierra, o si tuviese alguna duda sobre si su
aparato está debidamente conectado a tierra.
Si la toma de corriente es un modelo estándar de dos clavijas, es
su responsabilidad personal y su obligación el reemplazarla por
una toma adecuada para tres clavijas con conexión a tierra.
Bajo ninguna circunstancia debe cortar o quitar la tercera clavija
(tierra) del cable de corriente.
No use un enchufe adaptador con este electrodoméstico.
No use un cable extensor de corriente con
este electrodoméstico. Si el cable de corriente es demasiado
corto, haga que un electricista cualificado o un técnico
de reparaciones instalen una toma de corriente cerca del
electrodoméstico.
Para un mejor funcionamiento, enchufe este electrodoméstico
en una toma de corriente exclusiva para evitar parpadeos de luz,
fusibles quemados o que salte el diferencial.
.
ADAPTADORES DE ENCHUFE
Situaciones de uso en que el cable de corriente del electrodoméstico será desconectado con poca frecuencia.
Debido a los posibles riesgos sobre la seguridad bajo ciertas condiciones, recomendamos
enfáticamente no usar adaptadores de enchufe. Sin embargo, si aún elije usar un adaptador,
cuando los códigos locales lo permitan, se podrá realizar una CONEXIÓN TEMPORARIA a
un tomacorriente de pared de 2 enchufes adecuadamente conectado a tierra, utilizando un
adaptador que figure en la lista de UL que se encuentre disponible en la mayoría de los locales de
repuestos.
La ranura más larga del adaptador deberá estar alineada con la ranura más larga en el
tomacorriente de pared, a fin de brindar la polaridad adecuada en la conexión del cable de
corriente.
PRECAUCIÓN: Conectar la terminal del adaptador con conexión a tierra al tornillo de la cubierta
del tomacorriente no conecta el electrodoméstico a tierra, a menos que el tornillo de la cubierta sea de metal, y no esté aislado, y que
el tomacorriente esté conectado a tierra a través del cableado del hogar.
Contrate a un electricista calificado para que controle el circuito, a fin de asegurar que el tomacorriente esté correctamente conectado
a tierra.
Cuando desconecte el cable de corriente del adaptador, siempre sostenga el adaptador con una mano. En caso de no hacer esto,
es muy probable que la terminal del adaptador con conexión a tierra se rompa con el uso repetido. Si esto sucede, NO USE el
electrodoméstico hasta que se haya establecido una conexión a tierra adecuada nuevamente.
Situaciones de uso en que el cable de corriente del electrodoméstico será desconectado con frecuencia.
No use un adaptador de enchufe en estas situaciones, ya que una desconexión frecuente del cable de corriente representa un
esfuerzo excesivo sobre el adaptador y conduce finalmente a una falla de la terminal del adaptador con conexión a tierra. Deberá
solicitar a un electricista calificado el reemplazo del tomacorriente de 2 cables por uno de 3 cables (con conexión a tierra), antes de
usar el electrodoméstico.

permitidos en Canadá)

At one half of selected defrosting time, turn
food over and break apart or rearrange
pieces for more even defrosting. Shield any
warm areas with small pieces of foil. The oven
will continue to defrost if you don’t open the
door and turn the food.
A dull thumping noise may be heard during
defrosting. This is normal when oven is not
operating at High power.
Defrosting Tips
Foods frozen in paper or plastic can be
defrosted in the package. Closed packages
should be slit, pierced or vented AFTER
food has partially defrosted. Plastic storage
containers should be partially uncovered.
Family-size, prepackaged frozen dinners
can be defrosted and microwaved. If the
food is in a foil container, transfer it to a
microwave-safe dish.
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 Time 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.
