To reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, injury to persons, or exposure to excessive microwave oven energy when
using your oven, follow these basic safety precautions.
1
Read all instructions before using the oven.
2
Read and follow: Precautions to avoid possible exposure to excessive microwave energy on page 3.
3
This appliance must be grounded. Connect only to a 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 (closed glass jars, for example) 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 monitor the 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 the bag in the oven.
c) If materials inside the oven should ignite, keep the oven door closed, turn the 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. Visible bubbling or boiling when the container is removed from your microwave oven is not always
present. THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN THE CONTAINER IS
DISTURBED OR A SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.
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 your 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 your microwave oven.
11
Pierce foods with heavy skins such as potatoes, whole squash, apples, and chestnuts before cooking.
12
The contents of feeding bottles and baby jars should be stirred or shaken and the temperature should be
checked before serving in order to avoid burns.
13
Cooking utensils may become hot because of heat transferred from the heated food. Potholders may be needed
to handle the utensil.
14
Do not cover or block any openings on the appliance.
15
Do not store or use 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.
