Safety

Use of Extension Cords

A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk of
becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Longer
cord sets or extension cords are available and may be used if
care is exercised in their use. If a long cord or extension cord is
used:

1. The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord

should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the
appliance.

2. The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord and

it must be plugged into a 3-slot outlet.

3. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape

over the counter top or tabletop where it can be pulled on by
children or tripped over accidentally. If you use an extension
cord, the interior light may flicker and the blower may vary
when the microwave oven is on. Cooking times may be
longer, too.

WARNING

Do not cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the
power cord under any circumstances.

Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea are able to be overheated
beyond the boiling point without appearing to be boiling. 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 The Container Is Disturbed Or A Spoon Or Other Utensil
Is Inserted Into The Liquid.

To reduce the risk of injury to persons:

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 shorttime before removing the container.

5. Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil into

the container.
