IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
12
WARNING
NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or
cover an entire rack with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing
so blocks air flow through the oven and may cause carbon
monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat,
causing a fire hazard.
Please be aware that durations for using microwave power are
often considerably shorter when cooking, reheating and defrosting
than when using modes without microwave power. Excessively long
cooking times can lead to food drying out and burning or could even
cause it to catch fire.
Be sure you keep to recommended broiling times when using the
"Broil" mode. Do not use the "Microwave"
mode for dehydrating
items such as flowers, herbs, bread, or rolls. Never use "Broil"
modes for pre-baked products such as bread or rolls or for drying
flowers or herbs. Use "Convection Bake"
for these items and
monitor the process carefully.
Use caution when using alcohol in your recipes. Alcohol
evaporates at high temperatures but may, in rare circumstances,
combust on the hot heating elements.
Dishes with hollow knobs or handles are not suitable for use with
microwave modes. Moisture which has gathered in the hollow
recesses can cause pressure to build up and the item can explode.
Fire hazard! Using Microwave
or Microwave combination
modes with plastic dishes which are not microwave safe can cause
them to melt and damage the appliance.
Do not use any containers or cutlery made from or containing metal,
aluminum foil, lead, crystal glassware, temperature-sensitive
plastics, wooden utensils or cutlery, metal clips or plastic or paper
covered wire ties. Do not use plastic containers with the foil lid only
partially removed (see "Containers suitable for microwave use").
