PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE
EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE
MICROW AVE ENERGY
(a) Do not attempt to operate this oven with
the door open 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.
(c) Do not operate the oven if it is damaged.
It is particularly important that the oven
door close properly and that there is no
damage to the:
(1) Door (bent),
(2) Hinges and latches (broken or

SAFETY- MICROWAVE
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
IMPORTANT SAFETYINSTRUCTIONS
1. Read all instructions before using the appliance.
2. Read and follow the specific PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID
POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE
excessive microwave energy:
MICROWAVE ENERGYfound on page 2 of this manual.
3. This appliance must be grounded. Connect only to properly grounded outlet.
SeeGROUNDING INSTRUCTIONSfound on page 5 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.
10. Do not cover or block any openings on the appliance.
11. Do not store this appliance outdoors. Do not use this product near water – for example, near a kitchen sink,
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 over cook 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.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

INSTALLATION
Ensure proper ground
exists before use
A. GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
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 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 grounding can result in a risk of electric
shock. Consult a qualified electrician if the
grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded, and either:
1. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use
only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade
grounding plug, and a 3-slot receptacle that will
accept the plug on the appliance. The marked
rating of the extension cord shall be equal to or
greater than the electrical rating of the
appliance, or
2. 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 appliance.
NOTE:
1. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce
the risks resulting from becoming entangled in
or tripping over a longer cord.
2. Longer cord sets or extension cords are
available and may be used if care is exercised
in their use.
3. If a long cord or extension cord is used, (1) the
marked electrical rating of the cord set or
extension cord should be at least as great as
the electrical rating of the appliance, (2) the
extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire
cord, and (3) the longer cord should be
arranged so that it will not drape over the
countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on
by children or tripped over accidentally.
B. CIRCUITS
For safety purposes this oven must be plugged
into a 15 Amp circuit. No other electrical
appliances or lighting circuits should be on this
line. If in doubt, consult a licensed electrician.
C. VOLTAGE WARNING
The voltage used at the wall receptacle must be
the same as specified on the oven name plate
located on the back or on the side of the control
panel of the oven. Use of a higher voltage is
dangerous and may result in a fire or other type of
accident causing oven damage. Low voltage will
cause slow cooking. In case your microwave oven
does not perform normally in spite of proper
voltage, remove and reinsert the plug.
D. PLACEMENT OF THE OVEN
Your microwave oven can be placed easily in your
kitchen, family room, or anywhere else in your
home. Place the oven on a flat surface such as a
kitchen countertop or a specially designed
microwave oven cart. Do not place oven above a
gas or electric range. Free air flow around the
oven is important.
E. DO NOT BLOCK AIR VENTS
All air vents should be kept clear during cooking.
If air vents are covered during oven operation the
oven may overheat. In this case, a sensitive
thermal safety device automatically turns the oven
off. The oven will be inoperable until it has cooled
sufficiently.
F. RADIO INTERFERENCE
1. Microwave oven operation may interfere with
TV or radio reception.
2. When there is interference, it may be reduced
or eliminated by taking the following measures:
a. Clean the door and the sealing surfaces of
the oven.
b. Reorient the receiving antenna of radio or
television.
c. Relocate the microwave oven in relation to
the TV or radio.
d. Move the microwave oven away from the
receiver.
e. Plug the microwave oven into a different
outlet so that microwave oven and receiver
are on different branch circuits.
