on page 4.
• This appliance must be grounded. Connect only to a properly grounded outlet. See the Electrical
Requirements section.
• Install or locate this appliance only in accordance with the provided installation instructions.
• Some products such as whole eggs and sealed containers – for example, closed glass jars – can explode
and should not be heated in this oven.
• Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in the manual. Do not use corrosive chemicals
or vapors, such as sulfide and chloride, in this appliance. This type of oven is specifically designed to
heat, cook, or dry food. It is not designed for industrial or laboratory use.

• To avoid electric shock:
- Do not operate this appliance if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly or if it has
been damaged or dropped.
- Do not immerse the electrical cord or plug in water. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
- Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.
• When cleaning surfaces of door and oven that come together on closing the door, use only mild,
nonabrasive soaps or detergents applied with a sponge or soft cloth.
• DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF MICROWAVE OVEN. During and
after use or cleaning the Interior, do not touch other flammable materials contact heating elements or
interior surfaces of microwave oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces, such as
windows of microwave oven door, oven lamp, also get hot and may cause burns if not allowed to cool.
• To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
- Do not overcook food. Carefully attend to the microwave oven when paper, plastic or other
combustible materials are placed inside the oven to facilitate cooking.
- Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils or food in
the cavity when not in use.

• If materials inside the oven ignite:
- Keep oven door closed and turn the oven off.
- Disconnect the power cord or shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.
• Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea can be overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing to
be boiling due to surface tension of the liquid. Visible bubbling or boiling when the container is removed
from the microwave oven is not always present.
• THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN THE CONTAINER IS
DISTURBED OR A SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.
To reduce the risk of injury to persons:
- Do not overheat the liquid. Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it.
- Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks. Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or
other utensil into the container.
- After heating, allow the container to stand in the microwave oven for a short time before removing the
container.
