IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
To avoid risk of personal injury or property damage, observe the following:
1. Briskly stir or pour liquids before heating with
microwave energy to prevent spontaneous
boiling or eruption. Do not overheat. If air is not
mixed into a liquid, liquid can erupt in oven or
after removal from oven.
2. Do not deep fat fry in oven. Fat could overheat
and be hazardous to handle.
3. Do not cook or reheat eggs in shell or with an
unbroken yolk using microwave energy. Pressure
may build up and erupt. Pierce yolk with fork or
knife before cooking.
4. Pierce skin of potatoes, tomatoes, and similar
foods before cooking with microwave energy.
When skin is pierced, steam escapes evenly.
5. Do not leave oven unattended.
6. Do not use regular cooking thermometers in
oven when cooking in microwave or combination
mode. Most cooking thermometers contain
mercury and may cause an electrical arc,
malfunction, or damage to oven.
7. Do not heat baby bottles in oven.
8. Do not use metal utensils in oven except when
recommended by microwave food manufacturers
or recipe requires metal utensils in convection or
combination mode. Heat food in containers
made of glass or china if possible.
To reduce risk of fire in the oven cavity:
a. DO NOT overcook food. Carefully attend oven 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.

!
CAUTION
9. Never use paper, plastic, or other combustible
materials that are not intended for cooking. If oven
temperature is high, material may ignite.
10. Oven temperature is at least 150°F in convection
mode. Verify plastic, paper or other combustible
materials are recommended by the manufacturer
to withstand the minimum oven temperature.
11. When cooking with paper, plastic, or other
combustible materials, follow manufacturer's
recommendations on product use.
12. Do not use paper towels which contain nylon
or other synthetic fibers. Heated synthetics could
melt and cause paper to ignite.
13. Do not heat sealed containers or plastic bags
in oven. Food or liquid could expand quickly and
cause container or bag to break. Pierce or open
container or bag before heating.
14. Racks, utensils, rack guides, and oven surfaces
may become hot during or after use. Use utensils
or protective clothing, like pan grips or dry oven
mitts, when necessary to avoid burns.
15. Do not unplug oven immediately after use.
Internal fan must cool oven to avoid damage of
electrical components.
16. To avoid pacemaker malfunction, consult
physician or pacemaker manufacture about effects
of microwave energy on pacemaker.
17. DO NOT pop popcorn in this oven.
