SAFETY
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The safety instructions below will tell you how to use your oven to avoid harm to yourself or damage to your oven.
WARNING
-
To reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, injury to persons, or exposure to excessive microwave energy:
1. Read all instructions before using the appliance.
2. Read and follow the specific PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE
MICROWAVE ENERGY found on page 3 of this manual.
3. This appliance must be grounded. Connect only to properly grounded outlet.
See
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS found on page 3 of this manual .
4. Install or locate this appliance only in accordance with the provided installation instructions.
5. Some products, such as whole eggs and sealed containers – for example, closed glass jars are able to
explode and should not be heated in this oven.
6. Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in the manual. Do not use corrosive chemicals
or vapors in this appliance. This type of oven is specifically designed to heat, cook, or dry food. It is not designed for industrial or laboratory use.
7. As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary when used by children.
8. Do not operate this appliance if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly , or if it has been
damaged or dropped.
9. This appliance should be serviced only by qualified service personnel. Contact the nearest authorized service
facility for examination, repair, or adjustment.

in a wet basement, near a swimming pool, or similar location.
12. Do not immerse cord or plug in water.
13. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
14. Do not let cord hang over the edge of a table or counter .
15. When cleaning surfaces of door and oven that come together on closing the door , use only mild, nonabrasive
soaps or detergents applied with a sponge or soft cloth.
16. To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
a. Do not overcook food. Carefully attend appliance when paper , plastic, or other combustible materials are
placed inside the oven to facilitate cooking.
b. Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before placing bag in oven. c. 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.
d. Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils, or food in
the cavity when not in use.
17. 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 LIQUID. To reduce the risk of injury to persons; 1) Do not overheat the liquid. 2) Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it. 3) Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks. 4) After heating, allow the container to stand in the microwave oven for a short time before removing the container . 5) Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil into the container.
18. Avoid heating small-necked containers such as syrup bottles.
19. Avoid using corrosive and vapors, such as sulfide and chloride.
20. Liquids heated in certain shaped containers (especially cylindrical-shaped containers) may become overheat-
ed. The liquid may splash out with a loud noise during or after heating or when adding ingredients (instant coffee, etc.), resulting in harm to the oven and possible injury . In all containers, for best results, stir the liquid several times before heating. Always stir liquid several times between reheatings.

AUTO DEFROST
The AUTO DEFROST feature is an accurate defrosting method for frozen ground meat poultry fish up to 6.0
The oven automatically determines required defrosting times for each food item according to the weight you enter.
Simply tell the oven the type of your frozen food and enter the food weight. The oven calculates the rest.
For added convenience, the AUTO DEFROST Feature contains a built-in beep mechanism that lets you check, turn over, separate or rearrange as recommended in the express defrost chart in the last .
Three different defrosting levels are provided:
1 MEAT 2 POULTRY 3 FISH
lbs.
EXAMPLE: To defrost 1.2 lbs of ground beef.
1. Touch STOP/CLEAR.
2. Touch AUTO DEFROST once.
3. Touch number 1 and 2.
START.
NOTE:
When you touch the START pad, the display changes to defrost time count down. The oven will beep during the DEFROST cycle. At each beep, open the door and turn over, separate, or rearrange the food. Remove any portions that have thawed. Return frozen portions to the oven and touch START to resume the defrost cycle.
■ For best results, remove fish, shellfish, meat, and poultry from its original closed paper or plastic package (wrapper). Otherwise, the wrap will hold steam and juice close to the foods, which can cause the outer surface of the foods to cook.
■ For best results, shape your ground meat into the form of a doughnut before freezing. When defrosting, scrape off thawed meat when the beep sounds and continue defrosting.
■ Place foods in a shallow container or on a microwave roasting rack to catch drippings.
