The Vent Fan; Save These Instructions - GE DVM1850 User Manual

THE VENT FAN

The fan will operate automatically under certain conditions
(see Automatic Fan feature). Take care to prevent the starting
and spreading of accidental cooking fires while the vent fan
is in use.
s
Clean the underside of the microwave often. Do not allow
grease to build up on the microwave or the fan filter.
s
In the event of a grease fire on the surface units below the
microwave oven, smother a flaming pan on the surface unit
by covering the pan completely with a lid, a cookie sheet or
a flat tray.
s
Use care when cleaning the vent fan filter. Corrosive cleaning
agents, such as lye-based oven cleaners, may damage the filter.
s
When preparing flaming foods under the microwave, turn
the fan on.
s
Never leave surface units beneath your microwave oven
unattended at high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking
and greasy spillovers that may ignite and spread if the
microwave vent fan is operating. To minimize automatic fan
operation, use adequate-sized cookware and use high heat
on surface units only when necessary.
READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY
INFORMATION CAREFULLY.
