IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING
TO AVOID THE RISK OF SHOCK:
DO NOT remove outer panel from oven. Repairs must be done only by a qualified serv-
ice person.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF EXPOSURE TO MICROWAVE
ENERGY:
DO NOT tamper with, or make any adjustments or repairs to Door,
Control Panel Frame, Safety Interlock Switches, or any other part
of oven, microwave leakage may result.
TO AVOID THE RISK OF FIRE:
1. DO NOT operate the oven empty. The microwave energy will
reflect continuously throughout the oven causing overheating and
damage, if food or water is not present to absorb energy.
2. DO NOT store flammable materials next to, on top of, or in the
oven.
3. DO NOT dry clothes, newspapers or other materials in the oven, or use newspaper or
paper bags for cooking.
4. DO NOT hit or strike Control Panel. Damage to controls may occur.
5. DO NOT use recycled paper products unless the paper product is labeled as safe for
microwave oven use. Recycled paper products may contain impurities which may
cause sparking.
TO AVOID THE RISK OF SCALDING:
POT HOLDERS should always be used when removing items from the oven. Heat is
transferred from the HOT food to the cooking container and from the container to the
Oven Cavity Floor. The Oven Cavity Floor can also be very HOT after removing the
cooking container from the oven.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
For proper use of your oven, read remaining safety cautions and operating instructions.
Oven Cavity Floor
1. If the Oven Cavity Floor is hot, allow to cool before cleaning.
2. DO NOT cook directly on the Oven Cavity Floor. Always place food in a
microwave safe dish, or on a rack set in a microwave safe dish.
