Regulations.
IMPORTANT-SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 2
* Do not let power cord hang over edge of table
or counter.
* Do not operate this appliance if it has a
damaged power cord or plug, if it is not
working properly, or if it has been damaged or
dropped.
* See door surface cleaning instructions in the
Card and Cleaning section of your book.
* This appliance should be serviced only by
qualified service personnel. Contact nearest
authorized service facility for examination,
repair or adjustment.
* As with any appliance, close supervision is
necessary when used by children.
* To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
-Do not overcook food. Care fully attend
appliance 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.
* Do not use your microwave oven to dry
newspapers.
* Do not use recycled paper products. Recycled
paper towels, napkins and waxed paper can
contain metal flecks which may cause arcing or
ignite. Paper products containing nylon or
nylon filaments should be avoided, as they may
also ignite.
* Do not pop popron in your microwave oven
unless in a special microwave popcorn
accessory or unless you use popcorn labeled for
use in microwave ovens.
* Do not overcook potatoes. They could
dehydrate and catch fire, causing damage to
your oven.
* Do not operate the oven in microwave while
empty to avoid damage to the oven and the
danger of fire. If by accident the oven should
run empty a minute or two, no harm is done.
However, try to avoid operating the oven empty
at all times-it saves energy and prolongs the life
of the oven.
* Do not use the oven for storage purposes. Do
not leave paper products, cooking utensils or
food in the oven when not in use.
* If materials inside oven should ignite, keep
oven door closed, turn oven off, and disconnect
power cord, or shut off power at the fuse or
circuit breaker panel.
* Oversized food or oversized metal cookware
should not be used in a microwave oven
because they increase the risk of electric shock
and could cause a fire.
* Do not clean with metal scouring pads.
Pieces can burn off the pad and touch electrical
parts involving risk of electric shock.
* Do not store any materials, other than our
recommended accessories, in this oven when
not in use.
* Don’t defrost frzoen beverages in narrow
necked bottles (especially carbonated
beverages).
Even if the container is opened, pressure can
build up. THis can cause the container to burst,
possibly resulting in injury.
* Use metal only as directed in this book. TV
dinners may be microwaved in foil trays less
than 3/4” high; remove top foil cover and return
tray to the box. When using metal in the
microwave oven, keep metal (other than metal
shelf) at least 1 inch away from sides of the
oven.
(continued)
IMPORTANT-SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 3
* Do not cover the shelf or any other part of the
oven with metal foil. This will cause
overheating of the microwave oven.
* Cookware may
become hot
because of beat
transferred from
the heated food.
Pot holders may be
needed to handle
the cookware.
* Sometimes, the oven floor and walls can
become too hot to touch. Be cardful touching,
the floor and walls during and after cooking.
* Foods cooked in liquids (such as pasta) may
tend to boil over more rapidly than foods
containing less moisture. Should this occur, refer
to the Care and Cleaning section(s’) for
instructions on how to clean the inside of the
oven.
* Thermometer - Do not use a thermometer in
food you are microwaving unless the
thermometer is designed or recommended for
use in the microwave oven.
* Plastic cookware - Plastic cookware designed
for microwave cooking is very useful, but
should be used carefully. Even microwave-safe
plastic may not be as tolerant of overcooking
conditions as are Glass or ceramic materials and
may soften or char if subjected to short periods
of overcooking. In longer exposures to
overcooking, the food and cookware could
ignite. For these reasons: 1) Use microwave-safe
plastics only and use them in strict complance
with the cookware manufacturer’s
recommendations. 2) Do not subject empty
cookware to microwaving. 3) Do not permit
children to use plastic cookware without
complete supervision.
* When cooking pork, follow the directions
exactly and always cook the meat to an internal
temperature of at least 170˚F. This assures that in
the remote possibility that trichina may be
present in the meat, it will be killed and meat
will be safe to eat.
* Do not boil eggs in a microwave oven.
Pressure will build up inside egg yolk and will
cause it to burst possibly resulting in injury.
* Foods with unbroken outer “skin” such is
potatoes. sausages, tomatoes, apples, chicken
livers and other giblets, and egg yolks (see
reviouscaution) should be pierced to allow
steam to escape
during cooking.
* Not all plastic
wrap is suitable
for use in
microwave ovens.
Check the package for proper use.
* Spontaneous
boiling - Under
certain special
circumstances,
liquids may start to
boil during or
shortly after
removal from the microwave oven.
To prevent bums from splashing liquid, stir the
liquid briefly before removing the container
from the mcirowave oven.
* Some products such as whole eggs and sealed
containers - for example, closed glass jars - will
explode and should not be heated in this
microwave oven. Such use of the microwave
oven could result in injury.
* Avoid heating baby food in glass jars, even
without their lids; especially meat and mixtures.
(continued)
IMPORTANT-SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 4
* “Boilable” cooking pouches and tightly
closed plastic bags should be slit, pierced or
vented as directed by package. If they are not,
plastic could burst during or immediately after
cooking, possibly resulting in injury. Also,
plastic storage containers should be at least
partially uncovered because they form a tight
seal. When cooking with containers tightly
covered with plastic wrap, remove covering
carefully and direct steam away from hands and
face.
* Hot foods and
steam can cause
burns. Be careful
when opening any
containers of hot
food, including
popcorn bags, cooking Pouches and boxes. To
prevent possible injury, direct steam away from
hands and face.
The Exhaust Hood
* Have it installed and properly grounded by a
qualified installer. See the special installation
booklet packed with the microwave oven.
* The exhaust fan in the oven will operate
automatically under certain conditions (see
Automatic Fan Feature). While the fan is
operating, caution is required to prevent the
starting and spreading of accidental cooking
fires while the exhaust fan is in use. For this
reason:
- Never leave surface units unattended at high
heat settings. Boilover causes smoking and
greasy spillovers that may ignite and spread if
fan operation, use adequate sized cookware and
use high heat only when necessary.
- In the event of a grease fire, smother flaming
pan on surface unit by covering pan completely
with well-fittinglid, cookie sheet or
flat tray.
- Clean the vent
hood often. Do not
allow grease to
build up on the
hood or the filter.
- Use care when cleaning the vent hood filter.
Corrosive cleaning agents, such as lye-based
oven cleaners, may damage the filter.
- When flaming foods under the hood, turn the
fan off. The fan, if operating, may spread the
flame.

Variable power levels add flexibility to your
microwave cooking. The power levels on your
microwave oven can be compared to the surface
units on a range. High (power level 10) or full
power is the fastway to cook and gives you 100%
power.
each power level gives you microwave energy a
certain percent of the time. Power Level 7 is
microwave energy 70% of the time. Power Level 3
is microwave energy 30% of the time.
A high setting (10) will cook faster but may need
additional attention such as frequent stirring,
rotating or turning over. Most of your cooking will
be done on HIGH (Power Level 10). A lower
setting will cook more evently and with less
attention given to stirring or rotating the food.
Some foods may have better flavor, texture or
appearance if one of the lower setting is used. You
may wish to use a lower power level when cooking
foods that have a tendency to boil over, such as
scalled potatoes.
Reset periods (when the microwave energy cycles
off) give time for the food to “equalize” or transfer
heat to the inside of the food. An example of this is
shown with Power Level 3 - the defrost cycle. If
microwave energy didi not cycle off, the outside of
the food would cook before the inside was
defrosted.
Here are some examples of uses for various power
levels:
VARIABLE POWER LEVELS (1-10) 5
Cooking appliance installed under the oven may, under some heavy usage conditions. Cause temperatures
high enough to overheat some internal parts of the microwave oven.
To prevent overheating from taking place, the exhaust fan is designed to automatically turn on at a low
speed if excessive temperatures occur. Should this happen, the fan cannot be manually turned off, but it
will automatically turn off when the internal parts have cooled. The fan may stay on up to approximately
30 minutes after the range and microwave oven controls have been turned off.
