Microwave Safety Precautions
General Oven and Microwave Safety Instructions
Your microwave oven is a cooking device and you should use as much care as you use with a stove or any other cooking
device. When using this electric appliance, 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, observe the following:
1. Read all instructions before using the appliance.
2. Read and follow the specific “PRECAUTIONS TO
AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE
MICROWAVE ENERGY,” found on Page 1.
3. This appliance must be grounded. Connect only to a
properly grounded outlet. See “Grounding Instructions” found in Installation Instructions.
4. Install or locate this appliance only in accordance with
the installation instructions.
5. Do not cover or block any openings on this appliance.
6. Use this appliance only for its intended use as described
in this manual. DO NOT use corrosive chemicals,
vapors, or nonfood products; in this appliance. This
type of oven is specifically designed to heat or cook. It
is not designed for industrial or laboratory use. The use
of corrosive chemicals in heating or cleaning will damage the appliance and may result in radiation leaks.
7. When cleaning surfaces of door and oven that come
together on closing the door, use only mild, nonabrasive
soaps or detergents applied with a sponge or soft cloth.
8. Do not allow children to use this appliance, unless
closely supervised by an adult.
9. This appliance should be serviced only by qualified
service personnel. Contact the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair or adjustment.
10. Some products such as whole eggs, narrow neck bottles
and sealed containers, for example. Closed glass jars
may explode and should not be heated in this oven.
11. To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
(a) Do not overcook food. Carefully attend appliance
if 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.
12. Do not operate this appliance if it is not working
properly or if it has been damaged or dropped.
General Microwave Use
1. DO NOT tamper with
or make any adjustments
or repairs to door, control panel housing, safety
interlock switches or any
other part of the oven.
DO NOT remove outer
panel from oven. Repairs
must be done only by a
qualified service person.
2.
DO NOT OPERATE
AN EMPTY OVEN.
The microwave energy
will reflect continuously
throughout the oven
causing overheating, if
food or water is not
present to absorb energy. This could damage the oven
and result in a risk of fire.
3. DO NOT dry clothes, newspapers or other materials
in oven, or use newspapers or paper bags for cooking.
Fire could result.
4. DO NOT use recycled paper products unless the
paper product is labeled as safe for microwave oven use.
Recycled paper products may contain impurities which
may cause sparks, and result in fires when used.
5. DO NOT hit or strike control panel. Damage to
controls may occur. Fire could result.
6. POT HOLDERS should always be used when remov-
ing items from the oven. Heat is transferred from the
HOT food to the cooking container and from the
cooking container to the Glass Tray. The Glass Tray can
be very HOTafter removing cooking container from
oven.
7. DO NOT store flammable materials next to, on top of,
or in the oven. These could be fire hazards.
8. DO NOT STORE THIS APPLIANCE
OUTDOORS. Do not use this product near water —
for example, near a kitchen sink, in a wet basement or
near a swimming pool and the like.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
For proper use of your oven read remaining safety cautions and operating instructions.

SMW Oven Care and Use Manual
Microwave Safety Precautions
MICROWAVE OVEN SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
IMPORTANT: Do not overcook food; fire could result. Proper cooking depends on selecting the correct power
level and cooking time for the amount of food in the oven. Smaller portions of food that are cooked too long may catch
fire. Always have food in the microwave oven when it is on to absorb the microwave energy. When using the oven
at power levels below 100%, you can hear the magnetron cycling on and off. Condensation is a normal part of microwave
cooking. Covered foods will not cause as much condensation as uncovered ones. Do not block oven vents. This oven
is rated for 1100 watts by using the IEC Test Procedure. When preparing foods, check food 1-2 minutes before the
minimum time and add time accordingly.
FOOD ITEM OR PROCESS

Foods with Nonporous
Skins or Shells
Popcorn
• Pierce skins of potatoes, apples,
whole squash, hot dogs and sausages so that steam can escape.
• Puncture whole egg yolks before
cooking to prevent explosion.
• Use popcorn packaged for microwave ovens.
• Refer to popcorn package for
popping time. Set the time early
to check popping.
DON’TDO

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Please read all instructions before using this appliance.
Safety Instructions
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
• The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic
Enforcement Act requires businesses to warn
customers of potential exposure to substances
which are known by the State of California to
cause cancer or reproductive harm.
• The elimination of soil during self-cleaning
generates some by-products which are on this
list of substances.
• The fiberglass insulation in self-cleaning ovens
gives off a very small amount of formaldehyde
during the first several cleaning cycles.
• To minimize exposure to these substances, always
operate this unit according to the instructions
contained in this booklet and provide good
ventilation to the room during and immediately
after self-cleaning the oven.
SAFETY FOR ALL APPLIANCES
• Use this unit only in the manner intended by the
manufacturer. If you have any questions, contact
the manufacturer.
• Be sure the oven is properly installed and
grounded by a qualified technician.
• Children and pets should not be left alone or
unattended in the area where the appliance is in
use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand
on any part of the appliance.
• Never use the oven to warm or heat a room.
Such use can damage the oven parts.
• For personal safety, wear proper apparel. Loose
fitting or hanging garments should never be worn
while using this appliance. Tie long hair so that it
doesn't hang loose.
• Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance
unless specifically recommended in this manual.
All other servicing should be referred to an
authorized servicer.
• Do not store flammable materials in or near the

• During and after use, do not touch or let clothing
or other flammable materials contact the heating
elements or the interior surfaces of the oven until
they have had sufficient time to cool.
• The trim on the top and sides of the oven door
may become hot enough to cause burns.
• Use care when opening the door. Open the door
slightly to let hot air or steam escape before
removing or replacing food.
• Do not heat unopened food containers. Build-up
of pressure may cause the container to burst and
result in injury.
• Always place oven racks in desired location while
oven is cool. If a rack must be moved while oven
is hot, do not let potholder contact the hot
heating elements.
SAFETY FOR THE SELF-CLEANING
MODE
• Confirm that the door locks and will not open
before starting self-clean mode. If door does not
lock, DO NOT RUN SELF-CLEAN. Call
service.
