OPERATING AND CLEANING (continues)
— Do not cover the microwave rack or any part of the
oven with metal foil. This will cause overheating of
the microwave/convection oven.
— Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least
an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F and poultry to at
least an INTERNAL temperature of 180°F. Cooking
to these temperatures usually protects against
foodborne illness.
— Make sure all cookware used in your microwave
oven is suitable for microwaving. Most glass
casseroles, cooking dishes, measuring cups, custard
cups, pottery or china dinnerware which does not
have metallic trim or glaze with a metallic sheen can
be used.in compliance with cookware manufacturers’
recommendations.
— It is important to keep the area clean where the
door seals against the microwave. Use only mild,
nonabrasive detergents applied with a clean sponge
or soft cloth. Rinse well.
SUPERHEATED WATER
— 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:
— 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.
USE OF THE MICROWAVE RACK ACCESSORY
— Remove the microwave rack from the oven when not
in use.
— Use pot holders when handling the microwave rack
and cookware. They may be hot.
— Be sure that the microwave rack is positioned
properly inside the oven to prevent product damage.
— Do not use the rack in any microwave only model.

a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug
must be plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded.
Consult a qualified electrician or service technician
if the grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded.

resulting from becoming entangled or tripping over
a longer cord. Do not use an extension cord with
this appliance. If the power cord is too short, have
a qualified electrician or service technician install an
outlet near the appliance.
