IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

WARNING : To prevent fire, burns, electric shock and other warnings:
Listed below are, as with all appliances, certain rules to follow and safeguards to assure high performance
from this oven:

1

1. Do not use the oven for any reason other than food

preparation, such as for drying clothes, paper, or any
other nonfood items or for sterilizing purposes.

1

2. Do not use the oven when empty, this could damage

the oven.

1

3. Do not use the oven cavity for any type of storage,

such as papers, cookbook, cookware, etc.

1

4. Do not operate the oven without the glass tray in

place. Be sure it is properly sitting on the rotating
base.

1

5. Make sure you remove caps or lids prior to cooking

when you cook food sealed in bottles.

1

6. Do not put foreign material between the oven surface

and door. It could result in excessive leakage of
microwave energy.

1

7. Do not use recycled paper products for cooking. They

may contain impurities which could cause sparks
and/or fires when used during cooking.

1

8. Do not pop popcorn unless popped in a microwave

approved popcorn popper or unless it's commercially
packaged and recommended especially for
microwave ovens. Microwave popped corn produces
a lower yield than conventional popping; there will be
a number of unpopped kernels. Do not use oil unless
specified by the manufacturer.

1

9. Do not cook any food surrounded by a membrane,

such as egg yolks, potatoes, chicken livers, etc.,
without first piercing them several times with a fork.

10. Do not pop popcorn longer than the manufacturer's

directions. (popping time is generally below 3
minutes). Longer cooking does not yield more
popped corn, it can cause scorchings and fire.
Also, the cooking tray can become too hot to handle
or may break.

11. If smoke is observed, switch off or unplug the

appliance and keep the door closed in order to stifle
any flames.

12. When heating food in plastic or paper containers,

keep an eye on the oven due to the possibility of
ignition.

13. The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars

shall be stirred or shaken and the temperature
checked before consumption, in order to avoid burns.

14. Always test the temperature of food or drink which

has been heated in a microwave oven before you
give it to somebody, especially to children or elderly
people. This is important because things which have
been heated in a microwave oven carry on getting
hotter even though the microwave oven cooking has
stopped.

15. Eggs in their shell and whole hard-boiled eggs should

not be heated in microwave ovens since they may
explode, even after microwave heating has ended;

16. 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.

17. Never heat oil or fat for deep frying as you cannot

control the temperature and doing so may lead to
overheating and fire.

18. 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.

19. This appliance is not intended for use by

persons(including children) with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience
and knowledge, unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning use of the
appliance by a person  responsible for their safety.

20. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do

not play with the appliance.
