(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

ignite, keep oven door closed, turn
oven off, and disconnect the power
cord, or shut off power at the fuse or
circuit breaker panel.

products, cooking utensils or food in
the cavity when not in use.
Do not use this microwave oven to
17

Va p o r s f r o m s u c h c o r r o s i v e
chemicals may interact with the

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Keep the waveguide cover clean at all
18
times. Wipe the oven interior with a
soft damp cloth after each use. If you
leave grease or fat anywhere in the
cavity it may overheat, smoke or even
catch fire when next using the oven.
Never heat oil or fat for deep frying
19
as you
temperature and doing so may lead
to overheating and fire.
Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea
20
are able to 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 A SPOON
OR OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED
INTO THE LIQUID. To reduce the
risk of injury to persons:
a) Do not overheat the liquid.
b) Stir the liquid both before and
halfway through heating it.
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.
e) Use extreme care when inserting
a spoon or other utensil into the
container.
