iMPORTANT SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS
When using electrical appliances 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:
[] Read all instructions before using the microwave oven. [] Read and follow the specific "PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID
POSSBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY" found in this section.
[] The microwave oven must be grounded. Connect only to
properly grounded outlet. See "GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS" found in this section.
[] Install or locate the microwave oven only in accordance
with the provided Installation Instructions.
[] Some products such as whole eggs in the shell and sealed
containers - for example, closed glass jars - may explode
and should not be heated in the microwave oven.
[] Use the microwave oven only for its intended use as
described in this manual. Do not use corrosive chemicals or vapors in the microwave oven. This type of oven is specifically designed to heat, cook, or dry food. It is not
designed for industrial or laboratory use.
[] Oversized foods or oversized metal utensils should not be
inserted in the microwave oven as they may create a fire or risk of electric shock.
[] Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can burn off
the pad and touch electrical parts involving a risk of electric
shock.
[] Do not store any materials, other than manufacturer's
recommended accessories, in this oven when not in use.
[] Do not operate the microwave oven if it has a damaged
cord or plug, if it is not working properly, or if it has been
damaged or dropped.
[] Do not deep fry in oven. Microwaveable utensils are not
suitable and it is difficult to maintain appropriate deep frying
temperatures.
[] Do not use paper products when appliance is operated in
the "PAN BROWN" mode.
[] Do not cover racks or any other part of the oven with metal
foil. This will cause overheating of the oven.
[] As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary
when used by children.
[] The microwave oven should be serviced only by qualified
service personnel. Contact nearest authorized service
company for examination, repair, or adjustment.
[] Do not cover or block any openings on the microwave
oven.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT SAFETY iNSTRUCTIONS
[] Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea are able to be
overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing to be
boiling. 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 THE CONTAINER IS
DISTURBED OR A SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS
INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID. To reduce the risk of injury to persons:
- Do not overheat the liquid.
- Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it.
- Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.
- After heating, allow the container to stand in the
microwave oven for a short time before removing the container.
- Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil
into the container.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
[] Do not store the microwave oven 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.
[] See door surface cleaning instructions in the "Oven Care"
section.
[] To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
- Do not overcook food. Carefully attend the microwave oven if paper, plastic, or other combustible materials are
placed inside the oven to facilitate cooking.
- Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before placing bags in oven.
- 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.
- Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils, or food in the cavity when not in use.
PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY
(a) Do not attempt to operate this oven with the door open
since open-door operation can result in harmful exposure to microwave energy. It is important not to defeat or
tamper with the safety interlocks.
(b) Do not place any object between the oven front face and
the door or allow soil or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.
Observe all governing codes and ordinances. The microwave oven is connected to a 110-volt side of the 240-volt circuit
required for the lower oven. If the incoming voltage to the microwave oven is less than 110-volt cooking times may be longer. Have a qualified electrician check your electrical system.
This device complies with Part 18 of the FCC Rules.
I
(c) Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. It is particularly
important that the oven door close properly and that there is no damage to the:
(1) Door (bent), (2) Hinges and latches (broken or loosened),
(3) Door seals and sealing surfaces.
(d) The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone
except properly qualified service personnel.
