CAUTION: Light cover may be hot. Do not touch glass with lamp
ON. Never use the light for prolonged periods such as a night light.
Grease Filters:
Do not operate the oven without the grease filters in place. This can
damage the microwave. Grease filters should be cleaned at least once a
month. To remove the filters, use the pull-tab to slide the filter to the end of
the opening and tip down. Soak the filters in the sink or in a dishpan filled
with hot water and detergent.
• Do not use ammonia or other alkali-based products that may
darken the filter material.
• Agitate the filter. Use a scrub brush to remove caked on grease.
• Rinse the filter thoroughly and shake dry. Place the filter back
into the opening, tip upward and slide filter to the end of the
opening. Lock in place. Be careful not to kink or warp the filter
upon installation.
Microwave Cooking Safety:
• Always use pot holder to prevent burns when handling utensils
that are in contact with hot food. Enough heat can transfer from
food through utensils to cause skin burns.
• Stay near microwave while operating and check frequently to
prevent overcooking.
• Never use the cavity as a storage area for cookbooks or other items.
• Avoid steam burns by directing steam away from face and hands.
