NSTRUCTIONS

Before you begin operating the oven, carefully read the following instructions.

1. Empty the microwave oven and clean inside it with

a soft, damp cloth. Check for damage such as a
door that isn’t lined up correctly, damage around
the door, or dents inside the oven or on the
exterior. If there is any damage, do not operate the
oven until a designated service technician has
checked it and made any needed repairs.

2. Put the oven on a cart, counter, table, or shelf that is

strong enough to hold the oven and the food and
utensils you put in it. (The control side of the unit
is the heavy side. Use care when handling the
oven.) 
The weight of the oven is about 35 lbs 
(16 kg). The microwave oven should be at a 
temperature above 50°F (10°C) for proper operation.

NOTE: Do not block the exhaust vents or air intake
openings. Allow a few inches of space at the back
and side of the oven where the exhaust vents are 
located. Blocking the exhaust vents could cause 
damage to the oven and poor cooking results. Make
sure the microwave oven legs are in place to ensure
proper airflow. If vents are blocked, a sensitive
thermal safety device automatically turns the oven off.
The oven should work properly once it has cooled.
