SAFETY
PROPER AND SAFE USE OF YOUR OVEN
•The oven must be level.
•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.
•Incorrect use of browning dish may cause the turntable to break. See page 7.
•When using the Popcorn feature of this microwave oven, use only the bag sizes specified in the instruction manual.
•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.
•Do not operate the microwave oven when empty. Operating the oven with no food or food that is extremely low in moisture can cause fire, charring or sparking.
•Do not cook bacon directly on the turntable. Excessive local heating of the turntable may cause it to break.
•Do not heat baby bottles or baby food in the microwave oven. Uneven heating may occur and could cause physical injury.
•Do not heat narrow-necked containers, such as syrup bottles.
•Do not attempt to deep-fry in your microwave oven.
•Do not do home canning in this microwave oven as it is impossible to be sure all contents of the jar have reached boiling temperature.
•Do not use this microwave oven for commercial purposes. This microwave oven is made for household use only.
•To prevent delayed eruptive boiling of hot liquids and beverages or scalding yourself, stir liquid before placing the container in the oven and again halfway through cooking time. Let stand in the oven for a short time and stir again before removing the container.
•The metal rack must be removed from the oven when the rack is not used for cooking.
•Do not leave the temperature probe unplugged in the cavity when operating the oven.
•Do not let the temperature probe touch the side walls, turntable or door of the cavity when in use.
•Do not plug the pointed end of the temperature probe into the socket inside the cavity.
•Do not use the temperature probe in a regular oven. This probe is designed for microwave oven use only.

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 2.
4
S9000sci-safety.fm Page 5 Wednesday, September 22, 1999 2:38 PM

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
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 plug can result in electric shock. Do not plug into an outlet until appliance is properly installed and grounded.
UTENSILS
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 that has a 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.
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.
NOTE: If your electric power line or outlet voltage is less than 110 volts, cooking times may be longer. Have a qualified electrician check your electrical system.
CAUTION
Personal Injury Hazard
•Tightly-closed utensils could explode. Closed containers are opened and plastic pouches pierced before cooking.
See next page for further instructions "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 (250 mL) and place it in the oven along with the utensil in question.
2.Cook on maximum power (P100) for 1 minute.
3.Carefully feel the utensil.
If the empty utensil is warm, do not use it for microwave cooking.
Do not exceed 1 minute testing time.

1.Place the roller rest on the cavity bottom.
2.Place the turntable on top of the roller rest as shown in the diagram. Make sure the turntable hub is securely locked in the receptacle.
•Never place the turntable upside down. The turntable should never be restricted.
•Both turntable and roller rest must always be used during cooking.
•All food and containers of food must always be placed on the turntable for cooking.
•The turntable returns to its original starting position when cooking is finished. The light and fan will remain on but microwave power is turned off.
•The turntable rotates clockwise and counterclockwise; this is normal.
•If turntable or roller rest cracks or breaks, contact your nearest authorized service center for more information regarding replacement.
CHARCOAL FILTER INSTALLATION
If the microwave oven has been installed for room venting, the air vented by the fan will be recirculated back into the room through a pair of disposable charcoal filters that help to remove smoke and odors. If these filters become excessively dirty or discolored, they should be replaced. Under normal conditions, these filters should be replaced once every 6 to 12 months.
Charcoal Filter Kit (EMA-400)
If replacement charcoal filters are not available from an authorized dealer in your area, call 1-800-263-2244 for parts ordering information. (See page 44 for more details).
1.Disconnect the power supply.
2.Insert one end of the filter into the back of the opening 1 .
3.Push it up 2 and slide it towards
you 3 until it hangs in place.

GREASE FILTER INSTALLATION
The reusable metal grease filters trap grease released by food on the cooktop. They also prevent flames from food on the cooktop from damaging the inside of the oven.
1.Disconnect the power supply.
2.Hold the filter with the ring end facing you.
3.Insert the other end into the back of the opening.
4.Slide the filter towards the front and side until it is securely in place.
