IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:
WARNING-To reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, injury to persons or exposure to excessive
microwave energy:
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
11. Read all instructions before using the appliance.
12. Read and follow the specific “PRECAUTIONS
TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO
EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY” found
on page 1.
13. This appliance must be grounded. Connect only
to properly grounded outlet. See “GROUNDING
INSTRUCTIONS” found on page 3.
14. Install or locate this appliance only in accor-
dance with the provided installation instructions.
15. Some products such as whole eggs and sealed
containers - for example, closed glass jars-are
able to explode and should not be heated in this
oven.
16. Use this appliance only for its intended use as
described in this manual. Do not use corrosive
chemicals or vapors 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.
17. As with any appliance, close supervision is
necessary when used by children.
18. 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.
19. This appliance should be serviced only by
qualified service personnel.
Contact nearest authorized service facility for
examination, repair or adjustment.
10. Do not cover or block any openings on the
appliance.
11. Do not store this appliance outdoors. Do not use
this product near water — for example, near a
kitchen sink, in a wet basement, or near a
swimming pool, or similar locations.
12. Do not immerse cord or plug in water.
13. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
14.
Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.
15. Either:
a)
When cleaning surfaces of door and oven that comes
together on closing the door, use only mild, non-abrasive
soaps or detergents applied with a sponge or soft cloth , or
b) When separate cleaning instructions are provided, See
door surface cleaning instructions on.
16. To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
a) Do not overcook food. Carefully attend appliance when
paper, plastic, or other com-bustible materials are placed
inside the
oven to facilitate cooking.
b) Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before
placing bag in oven.
c) If materials inside the oven ignite, keep oven door closed,
turn oven off, and disconnect the power cord, or shut off
power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.
d) Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do not leave
paper products, cooking utensils, or food in the cavity
when not in use.
17. Do not use this microwave oven to heat
corrosive chemicals (for example, sulfides and
chlorides). Vapours from such corrosive
chemicals may interact with the contact and
springs of the safety interlock switches thereby
rendering them inoperable.
18. Keep the waveguide cover clean at all times.
Wipe the oven interior with a soft damp cloth
after each use. If you leave grease or fat
anywhere in the cavity it may overheat, smoke
or even catch fire when next using the oven.
19. Never heat oil or fat for deep frying as you
cannot control the temperature and doing so
may lead to overheating and fire.
20. Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea are able to
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 A SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL
IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID. To reduce
the risk of injury to persons:
a) Do not overheat the liquid.
b) Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it
c) Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.
d) After heating, allow the container to stand in the
microwave oven for a short time before removing the
container.
e) Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil
into the container.
