When using electrical appliances, basic safety
precautions should be followed, including the
following:

WARNING - To reduce the risk of burns,
electric shock, fire, and 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
accordance with the provided installation
instructions.

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. It is not designed for
industrial or laboratory use.

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.

b. Remove wire twist-ties from paper or
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 can
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 person:

1) Do not overheat the liquid.

2) Stir the liquid both before and halfway
through heating it.

3) Do not use straight-sided containers with
narrow necks.

4) After heating, allow the container to stand
in the microwave oven for a short time before
removing the container.

5) 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
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
because of heat transferred from the heated
food. Potholders may be needed to handle the
utensil.

14. Do not cover or block any openings on the
appliance.

15. Do not store or use this appliance
outdoors. Do not use this product near water,
for example, near a kitchen sink, in a wet
basement, near a swimming pool, or similar

let cord hang over edge of table or counter.

18. Use only thermometers, which are
specifically designed for use in microwave
ovens.

19. Do not operate any heating or cooking
appliance beneath this appliance.

20. Be certain the glass tray and roller rings
are in place when you operate the oven

21. This appliance should be serviced only by
qualified service personnel, contact nearest
authorized service facility for examination,
repair, or adjustment.

22. When cleaning surfaces of door and oven

radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to
radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined
by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by
one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving

antenna.

• Increase the separation between the

equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet

on a circuit different from that to which
the receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced

radio/TV technician for help.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

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 e lectrician or servicem an
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 necessar y to use an ex tens ion cor d,
use only a 3-wire ex tension cord that has a
3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot
receptacle that will accept the plug on the

appliance. The marked rating of the
extension cord shall be equal to or greater
than the electrical rating of the applianc e, 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.

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
