Read and follow the specific "Precautions to Avoid Possible Exposure to Excessive Microwave Energy"
section in this manual.
To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
i Do not overcook food. Carefully attend
appliance if paper, plastic or other combustible
materials are placed inside the oven to facilitate
cooking.
Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic
containers before placing bags in oven.
Do not use your microwave oven to dry
newspapers.
Do not pop popcorn in your microwave
oven unless in a special microwave popcorn
accessory or unless you use popcorn labeled for
use in microwave ovens.
Do not overcook potatoes. They could dehydrate
and catch fire, causing damage to your oven.
Do not operate the oven while empty to avoid
damage to the oven and the danger of fire. If by
accident the oven should run empty a minute
or two, no harm is done. However, try to avoid
operating the oven empty at any time-it saves
energy and prolongs the life of the oven.
Do not use the oven for storage purposes. Do
not leave paper products, cooking utensils or
food in the oven when not in use.
If materials inside the oven should ignite, keep
oven door closed, turn oven off, and shut off
power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel. If the
door is opened, the fire may spread.
This microwave oven is not approved or tested
for marine use.
i Do not operate the microwave oven without the
turntable and support in place.
Avoid heating baby food in glass jars, even with
the lid off. Make sure all infant food is thoroughly
cooked. Stir food to distribute the heat evenly.
Be careful to prevent scalding when warming
formula or breast milk. The container may feel
cooler than the milk really is. Always test the
milk before feeding the baby.
i Do not boil eggs in a microwave oven. Pressure
will build up inside the egg yolk and will cause it
to burst, possibly resulting in injury.
i Foods with unbroken outer "skin" such as
potatoes, sausages, tomatoes, apples, egg
yolks, chicken livers and other giblets should
be pierced to allow steam to escape during
cooking.
iiiiiiiiiiii_iiiii
Don't defrost frozen beverages in narrow-
necked bottles (especially carbonated
beverages). Even if the container is opened,
pressure can build up. This can cause the
container to burst, possibly resulting in injury.
Hot foods and steam can cause burns. Be
careful when opening any containers of hot
food, including popcorn bags, cooking pouches
and boxes. To prevent possible injury, direct
steam away from hands and face.
As with any appliance, close supervision is
necessary when used by children.
i Some products such as whole eggs and
sealed containers-for example, closed jars-
will explode and should not be heated in this
microwave oven. Such use of the microwave
oven could result in injury.
