IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

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:

1. Read all instructions before using the appliance.

2. Read and follow the specific "PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY" on page 4.

3. This appliance must be grounded. Connect only to properly grounded outlet. See "GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS" on page 5.

4. Install or locate this appliance only in accordance with the provided installation instructions.

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

6. Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in this manual. Do not use corrosive chemicals or vapors in this appliance. This type of oven is specifically designed to heat, cook, or dry food. It is not designed for industrial or laboratory use.

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

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

1) Do not overcook food. Carefully attend appliance when paper, plastic, or other combustible materials

are placed inside the oven to facilitate cooking.

2) Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before placing bag in oven.

3) If materials inside the oven should ignite, keep oven door closed, turn oven off, and disconnect the

power cord or shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.

4) Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils or food in

the cavity when not in use.

9. Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea are able to be overheated 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 oven 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 to person:

1) Do not overheat the liquid.

2) Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it.

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

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

container.

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

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

11. Pierce foods with heavy skins such as potatoes, whole squash, apples and chestnuts before cooking.

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

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (continued)

13. Cooking utensils may become hot because of heat transferred from the heated food. Potholders may be needed to handle the utensil.

14. Do not cover or block any openings on the appliance.

15. Do not store or use this appliance outdoors. Do not use this product near water, for example, near a kitchen sink, in a wet basement, near a swimming pool, or similar locations.

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

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

18. Use only thermometers, which are specifically designed for use in microwave ovens.

19. Do not operate any heating or cooking appliance beneath this appliance.

20. Be certain the glass tray and roller rings are in place when you operate the oven.

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

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

PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY

INSTALLATION GUIDE

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 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.

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

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

2. Check the oven for any 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 is any damage, do not operate the oven but contact qualified service personnel.

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

likely to be cooked in the oven.

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

materials.

5. For correct operation, the oven must have sufficient airflow. Allow 20cm of space above the oven, 10cm

at back and 5cm at both sides. Do not cover or block any openings on the appliance. Do not remove feet on which oven stands.

6. Do not operate the oven without glass tray, roller support, and shaft in their proper positions.

7. Make sure that the power supply cord is undamaged and does not run under the oven or over any hot or

sharp surface.

8. The socket must be readily accessible so that it can be easily unplugged in an emergency.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance 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.

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

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.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

 The electrical requirements are a 120 volt 60 Hz, AC only, 15 amp.  It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only the oven be provided.  The oven is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is

properly installed and grounded.

POWER SUPPLY CORD

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

over a longer cord.

 Longer cord sets or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.  If long cord or extension cord is used：

a) The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the

electrical rating of the appliance.

b) The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord, and the longer cord should be arranged so

that it will not drape over the counter top or table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.

NOTE:

· If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical instructions, consult a qualified electrician

or service person.

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.
