IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (continued)

10.DO NOT allow children to use this appliance, unless closely supervised by an adult. DO NOT assume that because a child has mastered one cooking skill he/she can cook everything.

11.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.

12.DO NOT immerse cord or plug in water.

13.Keep cord away from heated surfaces.

14.DO NOT let cord hang over edge of a table or counter.

15.This appliance should be serviced only by qualified service personnel. Contact the nearest authorized service center for examination, repair or adjustment.

16.Some products such as whole eggs, with or without shell, narrow neck bottles and sealed containers (for example, closed glass jars) may explode and should not be heated in this oven.

17.To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:

(a)DO NOT overcook 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 material inside the oven ignites, 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.

18.Superheated Liquids: Liquids, such as water, coffee or tea are able to be overheated beyond the boiling point without showing evidence (or signs) of boiling. Visible bubbling is not always present when the container is removed from the microwave oven.

(a)STIR THE LIQUID BOTH BEFORE AND HALFWAY THROUGH HEATING.

(b)DO NOT heat water and oil, or fats together. The film of oil will trap steam, and may cause a violent eruption.

(c)DO NOT use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.

WARNING

Safety Precautions

TO AVOID THE RISK OF SHOCK:

DO NOT remove outer panel from oven. Repairs must be done only by a qualified service person.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF EXPOSURE TO MICROWAVE ENERGY:

DO NOT tamper with, or make any adjustments or repairs to Door, Control Panel Frame, Safety Interlock Switches, or any other part of the oven. Microwave leakage may result.

TO AVOID THE RISK OF FIRE:

1. DO NOT operate the microwave oven empty or use metal containers. When using the microwave oven without water or food, microwave energy cannot be absorbed and will
