4 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
- Do not immerse the electrical cord or plug in water. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
- Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.
• To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
- Do not overcook food. Carefully attend to the microwave oven when paper, plastic or other
combustible materials are placed inside the oven to facilitate cooking.
- Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils or food in
the cavity when not in use.
- Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before placing bags in oven.
• Install or locate this appliance only in accordance with the provided installation instructions.
• If materials inside the oven ignite:
- Keep oven door closed and turn the oven off.
- Disconnect the power cord or shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.
• Some products such as whole eggs and sealed containers – for example, closed glass jars – can explode
and should not be heated in this oven.
• Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea can be overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing to
be boiling due to surface tension of the liquid. 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. Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or
other utensil into the container.
- After heating, allow the container to stand in the microwave oven for a short time before removing the
container.
• Do not cover or block any openings on the appliance.
• Do not store this appliance outdoors. Do not use this product near water - for example, near a kitchen
sink, in a wet basement, near a swimming pool, or similar location.
• This appliance should be serviced only by qualified service personnel. Contact the nearest authorized
service facility for examination, repair, or adjustment.
• When cleaning surfaces of door and oven that come together on closing the door, use only mild,
nonabrasive soaps or detergents applied with a sponge or soft cloth.
Operation
• Do not use this oven for commercial purposes. It is made for household use only.
• Do not run the oven while it is empty.
• If your oven is dropped or damaged, have it thoroughly checked by a qualified service technician before
using it again.
• Take care when the door is opened to avoid injury.
• To avoid improperly cooking some foods:
- Do not heat any type of baby bottle or baby food. Uneven heating may occur and possibly cause
personal injury.
- Do not heat small-necked containers, such as syrup bottles.
- Do not deep-fat fry in the microwave oven.
- Do not attempt home canning in the microwave oven.
• Do not use the oven for the purpose of dehumidification (for example, operating the microwave oven
with wet newspapers, clothes, toys, electric devices, plants, soil, pets or any other living matter inside it).
