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:
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 accordance 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. Only allow children to use the oven without supervision
when adequate instructions have been given so that the
child is able to use the oven in a safe way and
understands the hazards of improper use.
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, 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 combustible 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.
21. Do not operate the oven without the glass tray in place. Be
sure it is properly sitting on the rotating base.
