oven energy when using your appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following:
1. Read all instructions before using the
2. Read and follow the specific: "PRECAU-
TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY"
3. As with most cooking appliances, close
of a fire in the oven cavity.
If materials inside the oven ignite:
1. Keep the oven door closed.
2. Turn the oven off, and unplug the
3. Disconnect the power cord, shut off
Safety:
1. The oven must be on a leveled surface.
2. The turntable and turntable roller rest must be in the oven during cooking. Place the
cookware gently on the turntable and handle it carefully to avoid possible breakage.
3. Incorrect use of browning dish may cause the turntable to break.
4. The oven has several built-in safety switches to ensure that the power remains off when
the door is open. Do not tamper with these switches.
5. Do not operate the microwave oven empty. Operating the oven with no food or food that
is extremely low in moisture can cause fire, charring or sparking.
6. Do not cook bacon directly on the turntable. Excessive local heating of the turntable
may cause the turntable to break.
7. Do not attempt to deep-fry in your microwave oven.
8. Do not attempt home canning in this microwave oven, as it is impossible to be sure all

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
To Reduce the Risk of Injury to Persons
Grounding Installation
DANGER
Electric Shock Hazard
Touching some of the internal
components can cause serious
personal injury or death. Do not
disassemble this appliance.
WARNING
Electric Shock Hazard
Improper use of the grounding
can result in electric shock. Do
not plug into an outlet until
appliance is properly installed
and grounded.
Insulated plug
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 electric current. This appliance
is equipped with a cord having grounding
wire with a grounding plug. The plug
must be plugged into an outlet that is
properly installed and grounded.
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. If it is necessary to use an
extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension
cord that has a 3-pronged grounding plug,
and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the
plug on the appliance.
1. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the
risks resulting from becoming entangled in or
tripping over a longer cord.
2. If a long cord sets 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.
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
unintentionally.
CLEANING
Be sure to unplug the

Personal Injury Hazard
Tightly-closed utensils
could explode. Closed
containers should be opened
and plastic pouches should be
pierced before cooking.
UTENSILS
See the instructions on "Materials you can use in
microwave oven or to be avoided in microwave oven."
There may be certain non-metallic utensils that are not
safe to use for microwaving. If in doubt, you can test the
utensil in question following the procedure below.
Utensil Test:
1. Fill a microwave-safe container with 1 cup of cold
water (250ml) along with the utensil in question.
2. Cook on maximum power for 1 minute.
3. Carefully feel the utensil. If the empty utensil is
warm, do not use it for microwave cooking.
4. Do not exceed 1 minute cooking time.
