IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WARNING
-
Read all instructions before using the appliance.
-
Read and follow the specific: “PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY” found on page 2.
-
As with most cooking appliances, close supervision is necessary to reduce the risk of a fire in the oven cavity.
-
To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
i). Do not overcook food. Carefully attend to the appliance when paper, plastic, or other combustible materials are placed inside the oven to facilitate cooking.
ii). Remove wire twist-ties and metal handles from paper or plastic containers/bags before placing them in the oven.
iii). If materials inside the oven ignite, keep the oven door closed. Turn the oven off, and unplug the appliance. Disconnect the power cord, and shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.
iv). Do not use the oven cavity for storage purposes. Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils, or food in the cavity when not in use. -
This oven must be grounded. Connect only to a properly grounded outlet. See “GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS” found on page 4.
-
Install or locate this oven only in accordance with the installation instructions provided.
-
Some products such as whole eggs and sealed containers-for example closed glass jars-are able to explode and should not be heated in the oven.
-
Use this appliance only for its intended uses as described in this manual. Do not use corrosive chemicals or vapors in this appliance. This oven is specifically designed to heat or cook or dry food. It is not designed for industrial or laboratory use.
-
As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary when used by children.
-
Do not operate this oven if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly or if it has been damaged or dropped.
-
This appliance should be serviced only by qualified service technicians. Contact the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair or adjustment.
-
Do not cover or block any openings on the oven.
-
Do not store or use this appliance outdoors.
-
Do not use this oven near water, for example, near a kitchen sink, in a wet basement, near a swimming pool, or similar locations.

-
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.
i) Do not overheat the liquid.
ii) Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it.
iii) Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
DANGER
Electric Shock Hazard Touching some of the internal components can cause serious personal injury or death. Do not disassemble this appliance.
WARNING
Electric Shock Hazard Improper use of the grounding can result in electric
shock. Do not plug into an outlet until the appliance is properly installed
and grounded. Three-pronged (grounding) plug
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.
Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions
are not completely understood or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance
is properly grounded. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a
3-wire extension cord that has a 3-pronged grounding plug, and a 3-slot
receptacle that will accept the plug on the appliance. The marked rating of
the extension cord shall be equal to or greater than the electrical rating of
the appliance.
- A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
- Longer cord sets or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.
- If a long cord set or extension cord is used:
- The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
- The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord; and
- The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
Radio Interference
- The operation of the microwave oven may cause interference to your radio, TV, or similar equipment.
- When there is interference, it may be reduced or eliminated by taking the following measures:
- Clean the door and the sealing surface of the oven
- Reorient the receiving antenna of radio or television.
- Relocate the microwave oven with respect to the receiver.
- Move the microwave oven away from the receiver.
- Plug the microwave oven into a different outlet so that the microwave oven and receiver are on different branch circuits.
UTENSILS
CAUTION
Personal Injury Hazard

avoided in a microwave oven.” There may be certain non-metallic utensils that
are not safe to use for microwaving. If in doubt, you can test the utensil in
question following the procedure below.
Utensil Test:
- Fill a microwave-safe container with 1 cup of cold water (250ml) along with the utensil in question.
- Cook on maximum power for 1 minute.
