IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 

When using electrical appliances, basic 
safety precautions should be followed, 
including the following: 
WARNING - To reduce the risk of burns, 
electric shock, fire, and injury to persons or 
exposure to excessive microwave energy: 
1.  Read all instructions before using the 

appliance. 

2. Read and follow the specific 

"PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE 
EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE 
MICROWAVE ENERGY" on page 1.   

3.  This appliance must be grounded. 

Connect only to properly grounded 
outlet. See "grounding instructions” on 
page 3. 

4.  Install or locate this appliance only in 

accordance with the provided 
installation instructions.   

5.  Some products such as whole eggs and 

sealed containers -for example, closed 
glass jars- 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 
attend 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 bag in 
oven. 
c.  If materials inside the oven should 
ignite, keep oven door closed, turn 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 
due to surface tension of the liquid. 
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 A SPOON OR OTHER 
UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE 
LIQUID. To reduce the risk of injury to 
person:  
Do not overheat the liquid. 
Stir the liquid both before and halfway
