IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS MICROWAVE
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:
Read all instructions before using the microwave.
1. This microwave must be grounded. Connect only to property grounded outlets.
2. Install or place this microwave only in accordance with installation instructions.
3. Some products, such as sealed glass jars, may explode and should not be heated in this microwave.
4. This microwave is intended for use only as described in this manual. Do not use corrosive chemicals
5. or vapors in this microwave. This type of microwave is specifi cally designed to heat, cook, or dry foods. It is not designed for laboratory use. As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary when used by children.
6. Do not overcook food. Carefully attend to the microwave when paper, plastic, or other combustible
7. materials are places inside the microwave to facilitate cooking. Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before placing in microwave.
8. If materials inside the microwave should ignite, keep microwave door closed, turn it off, and
9. disconnect the power cord or turn off the power fuse at the circuit breaker panel. Do not use the microwave cavity for storage purposes. Do not leave paper products, cooking
10. utensils, or food in the cavity when not in use. Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea may overheat beyond the boiling point without appearing
11. to be boiling due to surface tension of the liquid. Visible bubbling or boiling when the container is removed form the microwave 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: do not overheat the liquid; stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating; do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks; after heating, allow the container to stand in the microwave a short time before removing; use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil into the container. Do not heat oil or fat for deep-frying in this microwave. It is diffi cult to control the temperature of
12. oil in the microwave. Pierce foods with heavy skins, such as potatoes, before cooking.
13. The contents of feeding bottles and baby jars should be stirred or shaken and the temperature
14. should be checked before serving to avoid burns. Cooking utensils may become hot from heat transferred from the heated food. Pot holders may be
15. needed to handle these utensils. Do not cover or block any openings on the microwave.
16. Do not store or use this microwave outdoors. Do not use this microwave near water.
17. Do not operate this microwave if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly, or if it
18. has been damaged or dropped. Do not immerse the cord or plug in water. Keep cord away from heated surfaces. Do not let the
19. cord hang over the edge of the table or counter. Use only thermometers specifi cally designed for microwaves.
20. Do not operate any heating or cooking under this microwave.
21. Be certain the glass tray and roller rings are in place when using the microwave.
22.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (continued)
This microwave should be serviced only by qualifi ed service personnel.
23. When cleaning microwave surface and door, use only mild, nonabrasive soaps or detergents applied with a
24. sponge or soft cloth.
PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY
Do not attempt to operate this microwave with the door open. Door open operation can result in
1. harmful exposure to microwave energy. Do not place any objects between the microwave front face and the door, or allow soil or cleaner
2. residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces. Do not operate the microwave if damaged. It is particularly important that the microwave door be
3. properly closed and there is no damage to the door, hinges and latches, or door seals and sealing surfaces. The microwave should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except properly qualifi ed service
4. personnel.
INSTALLATION GUIDE
Make sure all packing materials are removed from inside the microwave door.
1. Check the microwave for damage, such as misaligned or bent door, damaged door seals and sealing
2. surface, broken or loose door hinges and latches, and dents inside the cavity or on the door. If there are any damages, do not operate the microwave and contact Customer Service at 1-866-866-6283. This microwave must be placed on a fl at, stable surface to hold its weight and the heaviest food
3. likely to be cooked inside. Do not place the oven where heat, moisture, or high humidity are generated. Do not place
4. microwave near combustible materials. For correct operation, the oven must have suffi cient air fl ow. Allow 8” of space above the
5. microwave, 4” at the back, and 2” on each side of the unit. Do not cover or block any openings on the microwave. Do not remove microwave feet. Do not operate the oven without the glass tray, roller support, and shaft in their proper positions.
6. Make sure the power supply cord is undamaged and does not run under the microwave or over any
7. hot or sharp surface. The socket must be readily accessible so the microwave can be easily unplugged in an emergency.
8.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This microwave 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 risk of electric shock.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
The electrical requirements for this microwave are 120V, 60Hz, AC only, 20 amp.
• It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only the microwave be provided.
• The microwave is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall outlet
• properly installed and grounded.
POWER CORD
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or
• tripping over a long cord. Longer cord sets or extension cords are available and may be used if care is taken in using them.
• If using a longer cord, the marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be
• at least as great as the electrical marking of the microwave itself and the extension cord must be a grounded-type 3-wire cord. The longer cord should be arranged so it will not drape over the counter or tabletop.
