A–5
a.
DO NOT overcook food. Carefully attend oven
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. DO NOT
leave paper products, cooking utensils, or food
in the cavity when not in use.
To avoid risk of fire in the oven cavity:
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:
i)
Do not overheat the liquid.
ii)
Stir the liquid both before and halfway through
heating it.
iii) Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow
necks.
iv) After heating, allow the container to stand in the
microwave oven for a short time before removing
the container.
v)
Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or
other utensil into the container.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
8.
Oven temperature is at least 425°F in convection
mode. Verify plastic, paper or other combustible
materials are recommended by the manufacturer to
withstand the maximum oven temperature.
9.
When cooking with paper, plastic, or other
combustible materials, follow manufacturer's
recommendations on product use.
10.
Do not
use paper towels which contain nylon
or other synthetic fibers. Heated synthetics could
melt and cause paper to ignite.
11.
Do not
heat sealed containers or plastic bags in
oven. Food or liquid could expand quickly and cause
container or bag to break. Pierce or open container
or bag before heating.
12. Racks, utensils, rack guides, and oven surfaces
may become hot during or after use. Use utensils or
protective clothing, like pan grips or dry oven mitts,
when necessary to avoid burns.
13.
Do not
unplug oven immediately after use. Internal
fan must cool oven to avoid damage of electrical
components.
14. To avoid pacemaker malfunction, consult physician
or pacemaker manufacturer about effects of
microwave energy on pacemaker.
1.
Do not
deep fat fry in oven. Fat could overheat
and be hazardous to handle.
2.
Do not
cook or reheat eggs in shell or with an
unbroken yolk using microwave energy. Pressure
may build up and erupt. Pierce yolk with fork or
knife before cooking.
3.
Pierce skin of potatoes, tomatoes, and similar
foods before cooking with microwave energy.
When skin is pierced, steam escapes evenly.
4.
Do not
pop popcorn in this oven.
5.
Do not
use regular cooking thermometers in oven
when cooking in microwave or combination mode.
Most cooking thermometers contain mercury and
may cause an electrical arc, malfunction, or
damage to oven.
6.
Do not
use metal utensils in oven except when
recommended by microwave food manufacturers
or recipe requires metal utensils in convection or
combination mode. Heat food in containers
made of glass or china if possible.
7.
Never use paper, plastic, or other combustible
materials that are not intended for cooking. If
oven temperature is high, material may ignite.
