When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:
WARNING
- To reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, and 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 1.
3.
This appliance must be grounded. Connect only to properly grounded outlet. See "GROUNDING
INSTRUCTIONS” on page 4.
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.
c.
If materials inside the oven should 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.
9.
Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea can 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 person:
1)
Do not overheat the liquid.
2)
Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it.
3)
Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.
4)
After heating, allow the container to stand in the microwave oven for a short time before removing
the container.
