IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
16. To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
(a) Do not overcook food. Carefully attend
appliance if paper, plastic, or other
combustible materials are placed inside the
oven to facilitate cooking.
(b) Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic
bags before placing bag in oven.
(c) 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.
(d) Do not use the cavity for storage
purposes.
Do not leave paper products, cooking
utensils, or food in the cavity when not in
use.
17. To avoid the possible risk of a burn, the
appliance must not be used in areas such as
island-type countertops where the rear surfaces
would be exposed to user contact and the
appliance must be placed more than 3 feet
(85 cm) above the floor.
18. 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 UTENSIL IS
INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID. To reduce the
risk of injury to persons:
(a) STIR THE LIQUID BOTH BEFORE AND
HALFWAY THROUGH HEATING IT.
(b) Do not heat water and oil, or fats together.
The film of oil will trap steam, and may
cause a violent eruption.
(c) Do not use straight-sided containers with
narrow necks.
(d) After heating, allow the container to stand in
the microwave oven for a short time before
removing the container.
19. DO NOT cook directly on the turntable. It can
crack, cause injury or damage to the oven.
20. Do not clean with metal scouring pads.
Pieces can burn off the pad and touch electrical
parts involving a risk of electric shock.

General Use
1. DO NOT tamper with or make any adjustments or
repairs to the door, control panel housing, safety
interlock switches or any other part of the oven.
DO NOT remove outer panel from oven. Repairs
should only be done by qualified service person.
2. DO NOT use the microwave function when the
oven is empty. The microwave energy will reflect
continuously throughout the oven, if food or
water is not present to absorb energy. This could
damage the oven and result in the danger of a
fire.
3. DO NOT use this oven to heat chemicals or
other non-food products. DO NOT clean this
oven with any product that is labeled as
containing corrosive chemicals. The heating of
corrosive chemicals in this oven can cause
radiation leaks.
4. DO NOT dry clothes, newspapers or other
materials in the oven. They may catch on fire.
5. DO NOT use recycled paper products unless the
paper product is labeled as safe for microwave
oven use. Recycled paper products may contain
impurities which may cause sparks and/or fires
when used.
6. DO NOT use newspapers or paper bags for
cooking. Fire can result.
7. DO NOT hit or strike the control panel. Damage
to the controls may occur. Fire can result.
8. DO NOT store flammable materials next to, on
top of, or in the oven. These could be fire
hazards.
9. POT HOLDERS may be needed when handling
dishes. Heat is transferred from the hot food to
the cooking container and from the cooking
container to Glass Tray. Glass Tray can be very
hot after removing cooking container from oven.
10. Oversized foods or oversized metal utensils
should not be inserted in a microwave oven as
that may create a fire or risk of electric shock.
11. Before using the BAKE, COMBINATION or
BROIL functions for the first time, operate the
oven without food on BROIL for 20 minutes. This
will allow the oil that is used for rust protection to
be burned off.
12. Door and exterior will get hot during BAKE,
COMBINATION and BROIL. Please handle door
carefully.
13. Use extreme caution when removing oven
accessories or cooking containers from oven or
disposing of hot grease.
