be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance;
2) The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord; and
3) The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the
counter top or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped
over unintentionally.
WARNING:
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS:
1. Liquids such as water, coffee or tea are
able to be overheated beyond
the boiling point without appearing to be boiling.
2. Do not use narrow necked containers to boil or reheat liquids.
3. To reduce the risk of
injury, stir the liquid several times before
heating.
4. The liquid may splash out during or after heating or when adding
ingredients (instant coffee, etc) resulting in possible harm or injury to
persons.
5. After heating, allow the container to stand in microwave oven for at least
40 seconds before removing the container.
6. Do not heat water and oil, or a fat together which may cause a violent
eruption.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire
for the electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having a
grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an
outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
WARNING
–
Improper use of the grounding can result in a
risk of electric shock.
Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions
are not completely understood, or if doubt exist as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded.
•
Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is too short, have
a qualified electrician or service man install an outlet near the appliance.
Testing Containers and Utensils
Some non-metallic containers and utensils become extremely hot when used in a
microwave oven. To avoid risk of scalding, use the following procedure to
determine if a container or utensil is safe for microwave use:
1. Fill a microwave-safe container with 1 cup (250 ml) of cold water. Place it in
the microwave oven along with the container or utensil in question.
2. Turn the oven on maximum power for 1 minute. Do not exceed 1 minute
cooking time.
3. Carefully feel the container. If the empty container is warm, do not use it for
microwave cooking.
