IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using electrical appliance 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:
1. Read all instructions before using the appliance.
2. Read and follow the specific "PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO
EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY" on page 4.
3. This appliance must be grounded. Connect only to properly grounded outlet. See
"GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS " on page 5.
4. Install or locate this appliance only in accordance with the provided installation instructions.
5. 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.
6. 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.
7. As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary when used by children.
8. 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.

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.
9. 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. THEIS 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 person:
a)

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.
10. Do not heat oil or fat for deep-frying. It is difficult to control the temperature of oil in microwave
oven.
11. Pierce foods with heavy skins such as potatoes, whole squash, apples and chestnuts before
cooking.
