IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Popcorn:
Use only popcorn in packages designed and
labeled for microwave use, or pop it in a microwave oven
corn popper. Follow popcorn manufacturers’ directions
and use a brand suitable for the wattage of your oven.
Do not continue to heat after popping has stopped.
Popcorn will scorch or burn. Do not leave oven
unattended..
CAUTION
When using pre-packaged microwave popcorn, check
package weight before using the popcorn function. Set
the oven for the weight of the popcorn package. If these
instructions are not followed, popcorn may not pop
adequately or may ignite and cause fire.
Foods with nonporous skins:
Potatoes, tomatoes, sweet
potatoes, apples, whole squash and sausages are
examples of foods with nonporous skins, These types of
foods must be pierced before cooking to prevent them
from exploding.
Baby food / Baby formula:
Do not heat baby bottles or
food in microwave oven. The glass jar or the surface of
food may appear warm while the interior can burn the
infant’s mouth and esophagus.
Deep fat frying:
Do not deep fat fry in oven. Oil can be
heated beyond ideal temperatures very quickly in a
microwave oven. Temperatures can climb high enough
for the cooking oils to reach their respective flash points
and burst into flames. The heated oil may bubble and
spatter causing possible damage to the oven and
perhaps result in burns. Additionally, microwave–safe
utensils may not be able to withstand the temperature of
the hot oil, and could result in the utensil shattering, if it
contains a slight imperfection, scratch or chip.
Home Canning / Drying foods / Small quantities of
foods:
Do not use microwave oven for home canning or
heating of any closed jar. Pressure will build up and the
jar may explode. In addition, the oven cannot maintain
the food at the proper canning temperature. Improperly
canned food may spoil and be dangerous to consume.
Small quantities of food or foods with low moisture
content can dry out, burn or catch on fire.
Do not dry meats, herbs, fruits or vegetables in your
oven.
Proper cooking depends on time set and weight of food.
If you use a smaller portion than recommended and
cook at the time for the recommended portion, fire could
result.
Browning dishes:
. Microwave browning dishes or grills
are designed for microwave cooking only. Preheating
times vary depending on the size of the browning dish
and food being cooked. Always follow instructions
provided by the browning dish or grill manufacturer. Do
not preheat browning dishes more than 6 minutes.
Oven roasting bags:
If an oven bag is used for
microwave cooking, prepare according to package
directions. Do not use wire twist–ties to close bags,
instead use nylon ties, cotton string or a strip cut from
the open end of the bag. Make six ½” (12,7 mm) slits by
closure. Place oven cooking bag in a dish slightly larger
than the food being cooked.
Grounding Instructions
The models stated on the front cover are either dual-
rated, designed to be connected to either 208/240V AC,
60 Hz, 4-wire, single-phase power supply, or rated at
120V AC, 60 Hz and use a NEMA 5-20 plug to connect
to a dedicated 120 V microwave circuit.
This appliance must be grounded. Grounding reduces
risk of electric shock by providing a safe pathway for
electric current in the event of a short circuit.
If this oven is equipped with a cord having a grounding
wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged
into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded. See
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.
Do not use an extension cord. If the product power cord
is too short, have a qualified electrician install a three–
slot receptacle. This oven should be plugged into a
separate 60 Hertz circuit with the electrical rating as
shown in specifications table. When the oven is on a
circuit with other equipment, an increase in cooking
times may be required and fuses can be blown.
Consult a qualified electrician or servicer if grounding
instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt
exists as to whether the oven is properly grounded.
