Your New Microwave Oven is a Valuable Appliance,
Protect It From Misuse By Following These Rules:
@ Keep your oven clean and sweet-smelling.
Opening the oven door a few minutes after cooking
helps "air-out" the interior. An occasional thorough
wiping with a solution of baking soda and water
keeps the interior fresh.
@ Don't use sharp-edged utensils with your oven.
The interior and exterior oven walls can be
scratched. The control panel can be damaged.
@Don't remove the cover over the "stirrer" at the
top of the oven (microwave feature 4 on page 5.)
You may damage the oven.
