GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded. This oven 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 oven be provided. Using a high voltage is dangerous and may result in a fire or other accident causing oven damage.

WARNING: Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.

Note

1.If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical instructions, consult a qualified electrician or service person.

2.Neither the manufacturer nor the dealer can accept any liability for damage to the oven or personal injury resulting from failure to observe the electrical connection procedures.

MICROWAVE COOKING PRINCIPLES

1.Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards outside of dish.

2.Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of time indicated and add more as needed. Food severely overcooked can smoke or ignite.

3.Cover foods while cooking. Covers prevent spattering and help foods to cook evenly.

4.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.

5.Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway through cooking both from top to bottom and from the center of the dish to the outside.

UTENSILS GUIDE

1.The ideal material for a microwave utensil is transparent to microwave, it allows energy to pass through the container and heat the food.

2.Microwave can not penetrate metal, so metal utensils or dishes with metallic trim should not be used.

3.Do not use recycled paper products when microwave cooking, as they may contain small metal fragments which may cause sparks and/or fires.

4.Round/oval dishes rather than square/oblong ones are recommend, as food in corners tends to overcook.

5.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.

The list below is a general guide to help you select the correct utensils.
