IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:

– Do not overcook food. Carefully attend the

microwave oven when paper, plastic, or other 
combustible materials are placed inside the oven
to facilitate cooking.

– Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags

before placing bag in oven.

– If materials inside the oven ignite, keep oven 

door closed, turn oven off, and disconnect the 
power cord, or shut off power at the fuse or
circuit breaker panel.

– Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do not

leave paper products, cooking utensils, or food in
the cavity when not in use.

To reduce the risk of injury to persons:

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.

– 

Do not overheat the liquid.

– 

Stir the liquid both before and halfway through 

heating it.

– 

Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow 

necks.

– 

After heating, allow the container to stand in the 

microwave oven for a short time before removing 
the container.

– 

Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other 

utensil into the container.

face and the door or allow soil or cleaner residue
