CAUTIoN
Only use utensils that are suitable for use in
microwave ovens; DO NOT use any metallic
containers, Dinnerware with gold or silver
trimmings, Skewers, forks, etc.
Remove wire twist ties from paper or plastic bags.
Reason: Electric arcing or sparking may occur and
may damage the oven.
When heating food in plastic or paper containers,
keep an eye on the oven due to the possibility of
ignition;
Do not use your microwave oven to dry papers or
clothes.
Use shorter times for smaller amounts of food to
prevent overheating and burning food.
If smoke is observed, switch off or unplug the
appliance and keep the door closed in order to
stifle any flames;
The oven should be cleaned regularly and any food
deposits removed;
Do not immerse the power cable or power plug in
water and keep the power cable away from heat.
Eggs in their shell and whole hard-boiled eggs
should not be heated in microwave ovens since
they may explode, even after microwave heating
has ended; Also do not heat airtight or vacuum-
sealed bottles, jars, containers, nuts inshells,
tomatoes etc.
Do not cover the ventilation slots with cloth or
paper. They may catch fire as hot air escapes from
the oven. The oven may also overheat and switch
itself off automatically, and will remain off until it
cools sufficiently.
Always use oven mitts when removing a dish from
the oven to avoid unintentional burns.
Do not touch heating elements or interior oven
walls until the oven has cooled down.
Stir liquids halfway during heating or after heating
ends and allow the liquid stand at least 20 seconds
after heating to prevent eruptive boiling.
Stand at arms length from the oven when opening
the door to avoid getting scalded by escaping hot
air or steam.
Do not operate the microwave oven when it is empty.
The microwave oven will automatically shut down for 30
minutes for safety purposes. We recommend placing
a glass of water inside the oven at all times to absorb
microwave energy in case the microwave oven is started
accidentally.
Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp
metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since
they can scratch the surface, which may result in
shattering of the glass.
Install the oven in compliance with the clearances
stated in this manual (see Installing Your Microwave
Oven)
Take care when connecting other electrical
appliances to sockets near the oven.
