• Do not place the microwave where heat, moisture,
or high humidity are generated, or near combustible
materials.
• Do not operate the microwave without glass tray,
roller support, and shaft in their proper positions.

Grounding Instructions
This appliance must be grounded. This microwave is
equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a
grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle
that is properly installed and grounded. In the event of an
electrical short circuit, grounding reduces risk of electric
shock by providing an escape wire for the electric
current. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving
only the microwave be provided. Using a high voltage
is dangerous and may result in a fire or other accident
causing microwave damage.

icrowave cooking principles
M
• Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards
outside of dish.
• Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount
of time indicated and add more as needed. Food
severely overcooked can smoke or ignite.
• Cover foods while cooking. Covers prevent spattering
and help foods to cook evenly.
• Turn foods over once during microwaving to speed
cooking of such foods as chicken and hamburgers.
Large items like roasts must be turned over at
least once.
• Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway through
cooking both from top to bottom and from the
center of the dish to the outside.
Before you call for service
If the microwave fails to operate:
• Check to ensure that the microwave is plugged in
securely. If it is not, remove the plug from the outlet,
wait 10 seconds and plug it in again securely.
• Check for a blown circuit fuse or a tripped main
circuit breaker. If these seem to be operating properly,
test the outlet with another appliance.
• Check to ensure that the control panel is
programmed correctly and the timer is set.
• Check to ensure that the door is securely closed
engaging the door safety lock system. Otherwise,
the microwave energy will not flow into the
microwave.
If none of the above rectifies the situation, then contact
a qualified technician. Do not try to adjust or repair the
microwave yourself.
Utensils guide
• The ideal material for a microwave utensil is
transparent to microwave, it allows energy to pass
through the container and heat the food.
• Microwave can not penetrate metal, so metal utensils
or dishes with metallic trim should not be used.
• Do not use recycled paper products when microwave
cooking, as they may contain small metal fragments
which may cause sparks and/or fires.
• Round/oval dishes rather than square/oblong ones
are recommend, as food in corners tends to overcook.
• Narrow strips of aluminum foil may be used to
prevent overcooking of exposed areas. But be careful
don’t use too much and keep a distance of 1 inch
(2.54cm) between foil and cavity.
