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 1.
3. This appliance must be grounded.
Connect only to properly grounded
outlet. See "GROUNDING
INSTRUCTIONS " on page 4.
4. Install or locate this appliance only in

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.
7. As with any appliance, close
supervision is necessary when used by
children.
8. 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.

plastic bags before placing bag in
oven.
c. 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.
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.
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 a
person:
a. Do not overheat the liquid.
b. Stir the liquid both before and halfway
through heating it.
c. Do not use straight-sided containers
with narrow necks.
d. After heating, allow the container to
stand in the microwave oven for a
short time before removing the
container.
e. 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 a 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.
13. Cooking utensils may become hot

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
4
3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug
on the appliance. The marked rating of
the extension cord should 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.
This appliance must be connected to a
grounded, metallic, permanent wiring
system, or an equipment grounding
conductor should be run with the circuit
conductors and connected to the
equipment grounding terminal or lead on
the appliance.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
The electrical requirements are a 120
volt 60 Hz power source, AC only, 20
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
1. A short power supply cord is
provided to reduce the risks resulting
from becoming entangled in or tripping
over a longer cord.
2. Longer cord sets or extension cords
are available and may be used if care is
exercised in their use.
3. If a 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.

Notes
If you have any questions about the
grounding or electrical instructions,
consult a qualified electrician or service
person.
Neither Summit nor the dealer can
accept any liability for damage to the
oven or personal injury resulting from
failure to observe the electrical
connection procedures.
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, relocate the radio or
TV as far away from the oven as feasible
or check the position and signal of the
receiving antenna.
UUTTEENNSSIILLSS GGUUIIDDEE
This section lists which utensils can be
used in the microwave, which ones have
limited use for short periods, and which
ones should not be used in the
microwave.
RECOMMENDED
Microwave browning dish — Use to
brown the exterior of small items such as
steaks, chops, or pancakes. Follow the
directions provided with your browning
dish.
Microwaveable plastic wrap — Use to
retain steam. Leave a small opening for
some steam to escape and avoid placing
it directly on the food.
Paper towels and napkins — Use for
short-term heating and covering; these
absorb excess moisture and prevent
spattering. Do not use recycled paper
towels, which may contain metal and
could ignite.
Glass and glass-ceramic bowls and
dishes — Use for heating or cooking.
Paper plates and cups — Use for
5
short-term heating at low temperatures.
Do not use recycled paper, which may
contain metal and could ignite.
Wax paper — Use as a cover to prevent
spattering.
Thermometers — Use only those
labeled "Microwave Safe" and follow all
directions. Check the food in several
places. Conventional thermometers may
be used on microwave food once the
food has been removed from the oven.
― LIMITED USE
Aluminum foil — Use narrow strips of
foil to prevent overcooking of exposed
areas. Using too much foil can damage
your oven, so be careful. You should
keep distance of 1 inch (2.54cm)
between aluminum foil and cavity.
Ceramic, porcelain, and stoneware—
Use these if they are labeled "Microwave
Safe". If they are not labeled, test them
to make sure they can be used safely.
Plastic — Use only if labeled
"Microwave Safe". Other plastics can
melt.
Not Recommended
Glass jars and bottles — Regular glass
is too thin to be used in a microwave. It
can shatter and cause damage and
injury.
Paper bags — These are a fire hazard,
except for popcorn bags that are
designed for microwave use.
Styrofoam plates and cups — These
can melt and leave an unhealthy residue
on food.
Plastic storage and food containers
— Containers such as margarine tubs
can melt in the microwave.
Metal utensils — These can damage
your oven. Remove all metal before
cooking.
:
Note
Should you wish to check if a dish is
safe for microwaving, place the empty
dish in the oven and microwave on
HIGH for 30 seconds. A dish which
becomes very hot should not be used.
CCOOOOKKIINNGG TTEECCHHNNIIQQUUEESS
Your microwave makes cooking easier
than conventional cooking, provided you
keep these considerations in mind:
STIRRING
Stir foods such as casseroles and
vegetables while cooking to distribute
heat evenly. Food at the outside of the
dish absorbs more energy and heats
more quickly, so stir from the outside to
the center. The oven will turn off when
you open the door to stir your food.
ARRANGEMENT
Arrange unevenly shaped foods, such as
chicken pieces or chops, with the thicker,
meatier parts toward the outside of the
heating platter where they receive more
microwave energy. To prevent overcooking, place delicate areas, such as
asparagus tips, toward the center of the
platter.
6
SHIELDING
Shield food with narrow strips of
aluminum foil to prevent overcooking.
Areas that need shielding include poultry
wing tips, the ends of poultry legs, and
corners of square baking dishes. Use
only small amounts of aluminum foil.
Larger amounts can damage your oven.
TURNING
Turn foods over midway through cooking
to expose all parts to microwave energy.
This is especially important with large
foods such as roasts.
STANDING
Foods cooked in the microwave build up
internal heat and continue to cook for a
few minutes after heating stops. Let
foods stand to complete cooking,
especially foods such as cakes and
whole vegetables. Roasts need this time
to complete cooking in the center without
overcooking the outer areas. All liquids,
such as soup or hot chocolate, should
be shaken or stirred when cooking is
complete. Let liquids stand a moment
before serving. When heating baby food,
stir well at removal and test the
temperature before serving.
ADDING MOISTURE
Microwave energy is attracted to water
molecules. Food that is uneven in
moisture content should be covered or
allowed to stand so that the heat
disperses evenly. Add a small amount of
water to dry food to help it cook.
