IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS MICROWAVE

WARNING - to reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, injury to persons, or exposure to excessive microwave
energy, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:

1. Read all instructions before using the microwave oven.

2. This microwave must be grounded. Connect only to properly grounded outlets. See page 4 for Grounding
Instructions.

3. Install or place this microwave only in accordance with installation instructions.

4. Some items such as whole eggs and sealed containers-for example, closed glass jars - are able to explode and
should not be heated in this oven.

5. This microwave is intended for use only as described in this manual. Do not use corrosive chemicals or vapors in
this microwave. This type of microwave is specifically designed to heat, cook, or dry foods. It is not designed for
laboratory use.

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

7. To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity，do not overcook food. Carefully attend to the microwave when paper,
plastic, or other combustible materials are placed inside the microwave to facilitate cooking.

8. Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before placing in microwave.

9. If materials inside the microwave should ignite, keep microwave door closed, turn it off, and disconnect the power
cord or turn off the power fuse at the circuit breaker panel. Do not use the microwave cavity for storage purposes.

10. Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils, or food in the cavity when not in use.

11. Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea may overheat beyond the boiling point without appearing to be boiling due
to surface tension of the liquid. Visible bubbling or boiling when the container is removed from the microwave is
not always present. THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN A
SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID. To reduce the risk of injury: do not overheat the
liquid; stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating; do not use straight-sided containers with narrow
necks; after heating, allow the container to stand in the microwave a short time before removing; use extreme
care when inserting a spoon or other utensil into the container.

12. Do not heat oil or fat for deep-frying in this microwave. It is difficult to control the temperature of oil in the
microwave.

13. Pierce foods with heavy skins, such as potatoes, before cooking.

14. The contents of feeding bottles and baby jars should be stirred or shaken and the temperature should be checked
before serving to avoid burns.

15. Cooking utensils may become hot from heat transferred from the heated food. Pot holders may be needed to
handle these utensils.

16. Do not cover or block any openings on the microwave.

17. Do not store or use this microwave outdoors. Do not use this microwave near water, for example, near a kitchen
sink, in a wet basement, near a swimming pool, or similar location.

18. Do not operate this microwave if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly, or if it has been
damaged or dropped.

19. Do not immerse the cord or plug in water. Keep cord away from heated surfaces. Do not let the cord hang over
the edge of the table or counter.

PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE
TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY

20. Use only thermometers specifically designed for microwaves.

21. Do not operate any heating or cooking under this microwave.

22. Be certain the glass tray and roller rings are in place when using the microwave.

23. Read and follow the specific “Precautions to Avoid Possible Exposure to Excessive Microwave Energy” section
found below.

24. When cleaning microwave surface and door, use only mild, nonabrasive soaps or detergents applied with a
sponge or soft cloth.

25. This microwave should be serviced only by qualified service personnel, contact nearest authorized service facility
for examination,repair,or adjustment.

26.

1. Do not attempt to operate this microwave with the door open. Door open operation can result in harmful
exposure to microwave energy. It is important not to defeat of tamper with the safety interlocks.

2. Do not place any objects between the microwave front face and the door, or allow soil or cleaner residue to
accumulate on sealing surfaces.

3. Do not operate the microwave if damaged. It is particularly important that the microwave door be properly
closed and there is no damage to the door (bent), hinges and latches (broken or loosened), or door seals and
sealing surfaces.

4. The microwave should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except properly qualified service personnel.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

1. Make sure all packing materials are removed from inside the microwave door.

2. Check the microwave for damage, such as misaligned or bent door, damaged door seals and sealing surface,
broken or loose door hinges and latches, and dents inside the cavity or on the door. If there are any damages, do
not operate the microwave and contact Customer Service at 1-866-257-3336.

3. This microwave must be placed on a flat, stable surface to hold its weight and the heaviest food likely to be
cooked inside.

4. Do not place the oven where heat, moisture, or high humidity is generated. Do not place microwave near
combustible materials.

5. For correct operation, the oven must have sufficient air flow. Allow 20” of space above the microwave oven, 10” at
back and 5” at both sides.

6. Do not cover or block any openings on the microwave. Do not remove microwave feet. Do not operate the oven
without the glass tray, roller support, and shaft in their proper positions.

7. Make sure the power supply cord is undamaged and does not run under the microwave or over any hot or sharp
surface.

8. The socket must be readily accessible so the microwave can be easily unplugged in an emergency.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

PRODUCT DIAGRAM

This microwave must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces risk of electric shock
by providing an escape wire for the electric current. Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding
instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded. For
questions regarding the grounding instructions, please contact our Customer Support Center at 1-866-257-3336.

Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman 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.
WARNING: Improper use of the grounding plug can result in risk of electric shock.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

 The electrical requirements for this microwave are: 120V, 60Hz, AC only, 20 amp.
 It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only the microwave be provided.
 The microwave is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall outlet properly installed

and grounded.

POWER CORD

 A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a

long cord.

 Longer cord sets or extension cords are available and may be used if care is taken in using them.
 If using a longer cord, the marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as

the electrical marking of the microwave itself and the extension cord must be a grounded-type 3-wire cord. The
longer cord should be arranged so it will not drape over the counter or tabletop.

RADIO OR TV INTERFERENCE

 Should there be any interference caused by the microwave oven to your radio or TV, check that the microwave

oven is on a different circuit, relocated the radio or TV as far away from the oven as feasible or check position
and signal of receiving antenna.
