HESE INSTRUCTIONS
Safety
Important Safety Instructions, continued
• Do not store this appliance outdoors. Do not use near water – for example, near a kitchen sink, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, etc.
• Keep the inside of the oven clean. Food particles or spattered oils stuck to the oven walls or floor can cause paint damage and reduce the efficiency of the oven.
• 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.
• When cleaning door and oven surfaces, use only mild, nonabrasive soaps or detergents applied with a sponge or soft cloth.
• To reduce the risk of fire in the oven: a. Do not overcook food. Watch appliance carefully if paper, plastic,
or other combustible materials are inside.
b. Remove wire twist-ties from plastic cooking bags before placing
bags in oven.
c. If materials inside the oven ignite, keep the oven door closed, turn
the oven off, disconnect the power cord, or shut off the power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel. If the door is opened, the fire may spread.
d. Do not use the oven compartment for storage purposes. Do not
leave paper products, cooking utensils, or food in the oven when not in use.
• Do not try to preheat oven or operate while empty.
• Do not cook without the glass tray in place on the oven floor. Food will not cook properly without the tray.
• Do not defrost frozen beverages in narrow-necked bottles. The containers can break.
• Dishes and containers can become hot. Handle with care.
• Carefully remove container coverings, directing steam away from hands and face.
• Remove lids from baby food before heating. After heating baby food, stir well and test temperature by tasting before serving.
• Do not operate any other heating or cooking appliance beneath this appliance.
• Do not mount unit over or near any portion of a heating or cooking appliance.
• Do not mount over a sink.
• Do not store anything directly on top of the appliance when it is in operation.
• Do not attempt to pull any part of the door by hand to open the door. Open the door only utilizing the push button located at front-right­bottom side.
• 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:
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.

MPORTANT GROUNDING
This appliance 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 electrical current. This appliance is equipped with a cord that includes a grounding wire and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded. Plug the three-prong power cord into a properly grounded outlet of standard 115­120 voltage, 60 Hz. Your oven should be the only appliance on this circuit
.
WARNING
Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or servicer if you do not understand the grounding instructions or if you are not sure if the appliance is properly grounded.
Use of Extension Cords
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk of 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 a long cord or extension cord is used:
1. The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord
should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
2. The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord
and it must be plugged into a 3-slot outlet.
3. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape
over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally. If you use an extension cord, the interior light may flicker and the blower may vary when the microwave oven is on. Cooking times may be longer, too.
WARNING
Do not cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord under any circumstances.
Note:
Connect the oven to a 20A circuit. When connecting the oven to a 15A circuit, make sure that circuit breaker is operable.
