Precautions to avoid possible exposure to excessive microwave energy.
You cannot operate your oven with the door open due to the safety interlocks built into the door mechanism.
These safety interlocks automatically switch off any cooking activity when the door is opened; which in the case of
a microwave oven could result in harmful exposure to microwave energy.
It is important not to tamper with the safety interlocks.
Do not place any object between the oven front face and the door or allow food or cleaner residue to accumulate
on sealing surfaces.
Do not operate your oven if it is damaged. It is particularly important that the oven door closes 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.
Your oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except qualified service personnel.
• Utensils should be checked to ensure that they are suitable for use in microwave ovens.
• When heating food in plastic or paper containers, check the oven frequently due to the possibility of ignition.
• If smoke is observed, switch off or unplug the appliance and keep the door closed in order to stifle any
flames.
• Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling. Therefore care has to be taken when
handing the container.
• The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars are to be stirred or shaken and the temperature is to be
checked before consumption, in order to avoid burns.
• Eggs in their shell and whole hard-boiled eggs shall not be heated in microwave ovens since they may explode.
CLEANING
NOTE: Before cleaning the oven, unplug the power
cord. If this is impossible, open the oven door to
prevent an accidental oven start.
The oven should be cleaned regularly and any food
deposits removed
INTERIOR
Wipe the oven inside and outside with a soft cloth and
a mild detergent solution. Then rinse and wipe dry. This
should be done weekly or more often, if needed. Never
use cleaning powders or rough pads.
Excessive oil splatters on the inside top will be difficult
to remove if left for many days. Wipe splatters with a
wet paper towel, especially after cooking chicken or
bacon.
REMOVABLE PARTS
The turntable and rotating ring are removable. They
should be hand-washed in warm (not hot) water with a
mild detergent and a soft cloth. Once they are clean,
rinse well and dry with a soft cloth. Never use cleaning
powders, steel wool, or rough pads.
• The turntable may be cleaned at the sink. Be careful
not to chip or scratch the edges as this may cause
the turntable to break during use.
• The rotating ring should be cleaned regularly.
Precautions
DOOR
For best performance and safety, the inner door panel
and the oven front frame should be free of food or
grease buildup. Wipe often with a mild detergent; then
rinse and wipe dry. Never use cleaning powders or
rough pads.
After cleaning the control panel, touch CLEAR to clear
any entries that might have been entered accidentally
while cleaning the panel. Also make sure that the
turntable and rotating ring are in the right position.
Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could
lead to deterioration of the surface that could adversely
affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a
hazardous situation
