1. Make sure that all the packing materials
are removed from the inside of the door.
2. Check the oven for any damage, such
as misaligned or bent door, damaged
door seals and sealing surface, broken
or loose door hinges and latches and
dents inside the cavity or on the door. If
there is any damage, do not operate the
oven but contact 800-968-9853.
3. This microwave oven must be placed
on a flat, stable surface to hold its
weight and the heaviest food likely to be
cooked in the oven.
4. Do not place the oven where heat,
moisture, or high humidity are
generated, or near combustible
materials.
5. For correct operation, the oven must
have sufficient airflow. Allow 8 inches of
space above the oven, 4 inches at back
and 2 inches at both sides. Do not
cover or block any openings on the
appliance. Do not remove feet on which
oven stands.
6. Do not operate the oven without glass
tray, roller support, and shaft in their
proper positions.

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.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
The electrical requirements are a 120 volt 60 Hz, AC only, 15 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.

EXTENSION CORD
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 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the microwave oven. The marked
rating of the extension cord shall 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.
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, relocated the radio or TV as far away from the oven as
feasible or check position and signal of receiving antenna.
Notes:
If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical instructions, consult a qualified electrician
or service person.
Neither Curtis nor the dealer can accept any liability for damage to the oven or personal injury
resulting from failure to observe the electrical connection procedures.

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.
Microwavable 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 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. See “Note:” next page.
