READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY
To reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, injury to persons or exposure to excessive microwave energy:
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electrical shock by providing an escape wire for the electrical current.
This appliance is equipped with a cord that has a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The power cord must be plugged into an outlet that is properly grounded. If the outlet is a standard 2-prong wall outlet, it is your responsibility to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet. The serial rating plate indicates the voltage and frequency the appliance is designed for.
Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or service agent if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.
Do not connect your appliance to extension cords or together with another appliance in the same wall outlet. Do not splice the power cord. Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third ground prong from the power cord.
If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similar qualified person in order to avoid hazard.
Have a qualified electrician install a grounded outlet near the appliance if the power cord is too short.
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

SUPERHEATED LIQUID
Liquids are able to be overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing to be boiling due to the surface tension of the liquid. Visible bubbling will not always be present when the liquid is removed from the appliance. This could result in very hot liquids suddenly boiling over when a utensil or other item such as a tea bag is inserted into the liquid.
To reduce the risk of injury:
The contents of milk bottles and baby food jars should be stirred or shaken and the temperature checked before serving in order to avoid burns.
Do not defrost frozen beverages, especially carbonated beverages, in this appliance as they could explode.
Hot foods and steam can cause burns. Be careful when opening any container that has been heated in the appliance. Direct the opening away from hands and face to avoid burns.
ARCING
Arcing refers to sparks inside the microwave while it is in operation. Arcing is caused by:
If arcing is present, stop operation and remove any metal or paper towels from the appliance.
INSTALLATION
This microwave can be installed under a counter or cabinet. Ensure that the surface is strong enough to support the weight of the microwave and any food that may be put into it.
Installation will require a flat-bladed screwdriver, a drill and a 9 mm drill bit.
Accessories such as washers and bolts can be found in the accessory bag.
To achieve the best results when cooking in this microwave, follow the suggestions below.
STIRRING
Stir foods while cooking to distribute heat evenly. Food at the outside of the dish absorbs more energy and will heat more quickly so stir from the outside of the dish toward the center.
ARRANGEMENT
Arrange unevenly shaped foods thicker, meatier parts toward the outside of the turntable so they receive more heat. To prevent overcooking, place delicate items toward the center of the turntable.
SHIELDING
Delicate foods can be shielded with narrow strips of aluminum foil to prevent overcooking. Use only small amounts of foil as this can cause arcing and damage to the microwave.
TURNING
Turn food over midway through cooking to expose all parts to the microwave energy. This is important with large items and meat.
STANDING
Foods cooked in a microwave build up internal heat and continue to cook for a few minutes after heating stops. Let foods stand to complete cooking, especially meats and liquids. All liquids should be allowed to stand for a few minutes after cooking and should be shaken or stirred before consuming.
ADDING MOISTURE
Microwave energy is attracted to water molecules. Food that is uneven in moisture content should be covered and allowed to stand after cooking to allow the heat to disperse evenly. Add a small amount of water to dry food to help it cook.
Certain utensils are inappropriate for use in a microwave. See below for more information on which utensils are recommended, which should only have limited use and which are not recommended.
RECOMMENDED
Microwave Browning Dish: Used to brown the exterior of small food items. Follow the directions provided with the browning dish.
Microwavable Plastic Wrap: Used to retain steam. Leave a small opening to avoid a build up of steam. Do not place directly on food.
Glass and Ceramic Bowls and Dishes: Use for heating or cooking.
Paper Plates and Cups: Use for short term heating at low temperatures. Do not use recycled paper as they can contain metal and could ignite.
Paper Towels and Napkins: Use for short term heating and covering. They can absorb excess moisture and prevent splattering. Do not use recycled paper towels as they can contain metal and could ignite.
Wax Paper: Use as a cover to prevent splattering.
Thermometers: Only use those that are labeled "microwave safe" and follow all directions. Check the food in several places. Conventional thermometers can be used once the food has been removed from the microwave.
LIMITED USE
Aluminum Foil: Use narrow strips to prevent overcooking of exposed areas. Using too much foil can cause arcing and damage the appliance. Keep a distance of at least 1 inch (2.6 cm) between the foil and the inside of the appliance.
Ceramic, Porcelain and Stoneware: Only use if they are labeled "microwave safe".
Plastic: Only use if labeled "microwave safe".
NOT RECOMMENDED
Glass Jars and Bottles: Regular glass is too thin to be used in a microwave. It can shatter and cause damage or injury.
Paper Bags: These are a fire hazard and could ignite. The only exception is popcorn bags, which are designed for microwave use.
Styrofoam Plates and Cups: These can melt and leave an unhealthy residue on food.
Plastic Storage and Food Containers: These can melt and ignite.
Metal Utensils: These can cause arcing and damage to the appliance. Remove all metal before operation.
Note: To check if a dish is safe for use in the microwave, place the empty dish in the appliance and microwave on high for 30 seconds. If the dish becomes very hot, it should not be used.
