BEFORE USING MIcROWAvE OvEN

NEVER
use the oven without the turntable and support nor turn the turntable over so that a large dish could be placed
in the oven. The turntable will turn both clockwise and counterclockwise.
ALWAYS
have food in the oven when it is on to absorb the microwave energy.
When using the oven at power levels below 100%, you may hear the magnetron cycling on and off. It is normal for the
exterior of the oven to be warm to the touch when cooking or reheating.
Condensation is a normal part of microwave cooking. Room humidity and the moisture in food will influence the amount
of moisture that condenses in the oven. Generally, covered foods will not cause as much condensation as uncovered
ones. Ventilation openings must not be blocked.
The oven is for food preparation only. It should not be used to dry clothes or newspapers.
Your oven is rated 1100 watts by using the IEC Test Procedure. In using recipes or package directions check food a min-
ute or two before the minimum time and add time accordingly.
Cookware Safety
• Use dry, sturdy pot-holders. Damp pot-holders may cause burns from steam. Dishtowels or other substitutes should
NEVER be used as potholders because they can trail across hot surface elements and ignite or get caught on
appliance parts.
• DO NOT heat unopened food containers; buildup of pressure may cause the container to explode and result in injury.
• Use care when opening the microwave door. Let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food.
• PREPARED FOOD WARNING: Follow food manufacturer's instructions. If a plastic frozen food container and/or its
cover distorts, warps, or is otherwise damaged during cooking, immediately discard the food and its container. The
food could be contaminated.
