The Chambers Microwave Oven is designed and thoroughly tested to meet the exacting safety standards of UL and FCC requirements, and complies with safety performance standards of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
Before using the Chambers Microwave Oven, please read the instructions for microwave cooking in the separate booklet titled “Use and Care of Your Microwave Oven.”
Precautions to Avoid Possible Exposure to Excessive Microwave Energy
1. 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.
2. Do not place any object between the oven front face and the door or allow soil or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.
3. Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. It is particularly im­portant that the oven door closes properly and that there is no damage in the:
a. Door (bent) b. Hinges and Latches (broken or loosened) c. Door Seals and Sealing Surfaces
4. THE OVEN SHOULD NOT BE ADJUSTED OR REPAIRED BY ANYONE EXCEPT PROPERLY QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be fol­lowed, including the following:
WARNING: To reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, injury to persons or exposure to excessive microwave energy:
General Cooking Precautions

11. This appliance should be serviced only by qualified service per­sonnel. Contact nearest authorized service facility for examina­tion, repair or adjustment.
12. Know where your main oven electrical switch is located. It is important to know this in case the electrical power to your oven needs to be turned off. Have the installer show you where it is located.
13. Clean your ovens regularly. See care and cleaning instructions.
14. Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in the owner’s manuals.

Thermal Oven Precautions
1. Never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.
2. DO NOT USE WATER ON GREASE FIRES-Smother fire or flame or use dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
3. Use only dry potholders-Moist or damp potholders on hot sur­faces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.
4. Use care when opening door-Let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food.
5. Placement of oven racks-Always position oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact hot heating element in oven.
6. Do not touch heating elements or interior surfaces of the oven
- Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact heating elements or interior sur­faces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to cause burns
-
among these surfaces are oven vent openings and surfaces
near these openings, oven doors and windows.
7. Never let aluminum foil touch heating elements.
8. Never touch an oven light bulb with a damp cleaning cloth unless the power is turned off to your oven and the bulb is cool to the touch.
9. Do not heat unopened food containers - Buildup of pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury.
10. Do not clean door gasket-It is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket. Hand clean only areas recommended in this booklet.
11. Do not use oven cleaners-No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind should be used in or around any part of the oven.
12. Before self-cleaning the oven, remove broiler pan, broiler grid, oven racks and other utensils. (Do not use your oven to clean miscellaneous parts.)

CLOCK OPERATION AND MINUTE MINDER
Your oven has two time of day clocks. The digital clock on the upper control panel controls all timed operations in the lower oven. The electronic clock located in the microwave control panel controls the microwave oven.
How to Set Clocks: Digital Clock
Push in and turn the Minute Minder timer knob to the left until the correct time appears. NOTE: The timer hand will also turn. Reset this hand by turning the knob (do not push the knob in) to the “OFF” position.
Electronic Clock
1. Touch “CLEAR” pad.
2. Touch “TIME OF DAY” pad.
3. Enter numbers on control panel to indicate a time one minute faster than time on digital clock.
4. When digital clock registers the same time as numbers touched on microwave control panel, touch “TIME OF DAY” pad again
NOTE: Flashing lights in the display panel of the microwave oven indicate that there has been a power interruption to the microwave oven. Power to the microwave oven is interrupted when the selector is moved into or through the “CLEAN” po­sition or when there is an electrical power failure.
If the clock is stopped for 18 hours or more, customer programmed recipes may be lost. The preprogrammed recipes will not be affected. Follow above instructions to reset both clocks, since power interruption will also affect the digital clock.
The two clocks operate independently and if they occasionally get out of phase with the other, there is no cause for alarm - simply reset the elec­tronic clock as indicated above.
How to use the Minute Minder:
The Minute Minder is located on the left side of the clock. To use the Minute Minder, turn the knob to the right until the white hand points to the desired number of minutes, up to a maximum of 60. At the end of the set time, a buzzer will sound and the white hand will point to “0.” After the buzzer signal, turn the knob until the white hand points to “OFF.” This is a re­minder only and will not turn the oven “ON” or “OFF.”
HOW TO USE THE LOWER OVEN
The lower oven is used for baking, roasting, rotissing and broiling. It has
two controls-a Selector and a Thermostat-and both must be set for the
oven to work.
Selector
The Selector has five settings:
Broil -Use this setting for broiling or rotissing.
Only the upper element will be on.
Clean - Use this setting for self-cleaning only.
Time Bake - Use this setting for Automatic Time Baking and Retained
Heat Cooking. Both the upper and lower elements will be on.
Bake - Use this setting for baking and roasting. Both the upper
and lower elements will be on.
Off-Use this setting to turn the oven off.
When both the upper and lower elements are on, the upper element op­erates at 25 percent power to aid in more uniform baking. The upper
element does not turn red like the lower element which operates at full
power.
Thermostat
The adjustable Thermostat can be set at any temperature from 170°F (LOW) to 550°F. Settings LOW to 225°F are suggested for warming and holding foods.
Preheating the Oven
For best results, preheat the oven unless the recipe states otherwise. Set the Selector to “BAKE” and Thermostat to the desired temperature. Ex­ercise care in turning the Thermostat not to go past the desired set point. If setting is past, return dial to low-end stop and reset dial to desired setting. The Oven Light will go out when the desired temperature has been reached.
Be sure that the Selector is turned to “OFF” and the Thermostat is set at the low-end stop when oven is not in use.
