IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

■ 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.

■ Do not operate any heating or cooking appliance

beneath the microwave oven.

■ Do not mount microwave oven over or near any

portion of a heating or cooking appliance.

■ Oversized foods or oversized metal utensils should

not be inserted in the microwave oven as they may create a fire or risk of electric shock.

■ Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can

burn off the pad and touch electrical parts involving a risk of electric shock.

■ Do not use paper products when appliance is

operated in the “PAN BROWN” mode (on models with this feature).

■ Do not store any materials, other than

manufacturer’s recommended accessories, in this microwave oven when not in use.

■ Do not store anything directly on top of the

microwave oven when the microwave oven is in operation.

■ Do not cover or block any openings on the

microwave oven.

■ Do not store this microwave oven outdoors. Do not

use the microwave oven near water - for example, near a kitchen sink, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, or similar locations.

■ Do not immerse cord or plug in water.

■ Keep cord away from heated surfaces.

■ Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.

■ Do not mount over a sink.

■ Do not cover racks or any other part of the

microwave oven with metal foil. This will cause overheating of the microwave oven.

PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE 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.

This device complies with Part 18 of the FCC Rules.

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 loosened), (3) Door seals and sealing surfaces.

(d) The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by

anyone except properly qualified service personnel.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Unpacking

1. Empty the microwave oven of any packing materials.

2. Clean the inside with a soft, damp cloth.

3. Check for damage, such as:

■ a door that is not lined up correctly

■ damage around the door, or

■ dents on the interior or exterior of the microwave oven.

If there is any damage, do not operate the microwave oven until a designated service technician has checked it and made any needed repairs.

Location Requirements

■ Make sure the microwave oven legs are in place to ensure

proper airflow. If vents are blocked, a sensitive thermal safety device may automatically turn the microwave oven off. The microwave oven should work properly once it has cooled.

Electrical Requirements

WARNING

Fire Hazard

Do not install oven next to or over a heat source without a UL approved (CSA approved in Canada) trim kit.

Doing so can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

WARNING

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install microwave oven.

Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet. Do not remove ground prong. Do not use an adapter. Do not use an extension cord. Failure to follow these instructions can result in

death, fire, or electrical shock.

Observe all governing codes and ordinances. A 120 Volt, 60 Hz, AC only, 15- or 20-amp fused electrical supply (or circuit breaker) is required. (A time-delay fuse is recommended.) It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only this appliance be provided.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

■ For all cord connected appliances:

The microwave oven 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. The microwave oven 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.

IMPORTANT: The control side of the unit is the heavy side. Handle the microwave oven gently. The weight of the microwave oven is more than 35 lbs (15.9 kg).

■ Place the microwave oven on a cart, counter, table or shelf

that is strong enough to hold the microwave oven and the food and utensils you place inside it.

■ The microwave oven should be at a temperature above 50°F

(10°C) for proper operation.

NOTE: Some models can be built into a wall or cabinet by using one of the trim kits listed in the “Microwave Oven Built-In Trim Kit Installation Instructions.”

■ Do not block the exhaust vents or air intake openings. Allow a

few inches of space at the back of the microwave oven where the exhaust vents are located. Blocking the exhaust vents could cause damage to the microwave oven, as well as poor cooking results.

WARNING:

result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the are not completely understood whether the microwave oven is properly grounded.

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 microwave oven.

Improper use of the grounding plug can
