WARNING Continued

OPERATING

■As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary when used by children.

■Do not operate the oven without the turntable in place. The turntable must be unrestricted so it can turn.

■Do not store anything directly on top of the microwave oven surface when the microwave oven is in operation.

■Oversized foods or oversized metal utensils should not be inserted in a microwave/convection oven as they may create a fire or risk of electric shock.

■Do not use paper products in oven when appliance is operating in any cooking mode except microwave.

■Some products such as whole eggs and sealed containers—for example, closed jars—are able to explode and should not be heated in this oven.

■Do not overcook potatoes. They could dehydrate and catch fire, causing damage to your oven.

■Do not cover racks or any other part of the oven with metal foil. This will cause overheating of the oven.

■Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—

meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F, and poultry to at least an INTERNAL temperature

of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against foodborne illness.

■This oven is not approved or tested for marine use.

CLEANING

■Keep the oven free from grease buildup.

■Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can burn off the pad and touch electrical parts involving a risk of electric shock.

■When cleaning surfaces of door and oven that comes together on closing the door, use only mild, nonabrasive soaps, or detergents applied with a clean sponge or soft cloth. Rinse well.

SUPER HEATED WATER

■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:

-Do not overheat the liquid.

-Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it.

-Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.

-After heating, allow the container to stand in the microwave oven for a short time before removing the container.

-Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil into the container.

WARNING Arcing can occur during both fast cook and microwave cooking. 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.

■Foil not molded to food (upturned edges act like antennas).

■Use foil only as recommended in this manual.

■Metal cookware used during either fast cook or microwave cooking (except for the pans provided with the oven).

■Metal, such as twist-ties, poultry pins, or gold-rimmed dishes, in the oven.

■Recycled paper towels containing small metal pieces being used in the oven.

SAFETY INFORMATION

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE

WARNING MICROWAVE-SAFE COOKWARE

Make sure to use suitable cookware during microwave cooking. 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.”

■Place food or microwavable container directly on the clear glass tray to cook your food.

■Use of the non-stick metal tray during microwave cooking will result in inferior cooking performance.

■Cookware may become hot because of heat transferred from the heated food. Oven mitts may be needed to handle the cookware.

■Do not use recycled paper products. Recycled paper towels, napkins and waxed paper may contain metal flecks which could cause arcing or ignite. Paper products containing nylon or nylon filaments should be avoided, as they may also ignite.

■Use foil only as directed in this manual. When using foil in the oven, keep the foil at least 1″ away from the sides of the oven.

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

■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.

■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.

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

■“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.

■Plastic cookware—Plastic cookware designed for microwave 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.

■Do not use the wire oven rack for microwaving. 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 turntable must	The clear glass tray

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.

Ensure proper ground exists before use.

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.

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.

Do not use an extension cord. If the power cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or service technician install an outlet near the appliance.

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

NOTICE: 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.
