To Reduce the Risk of Injury to Persons Grounding Installation

DANGER

ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
Touching some of the internal components can cause serious personal injury or death. Do not disassemble this appliance.

WARNING

• Improper use of the grounding can result in electric shock.
• Do not plug into an outlet until appliance is properly installed and grounded.
• 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.

CLEANING

BE SURE TO UNPLUG THE APPLIANCE FROM THE POWER SUPPLY

1.  Clean the cavity of the oven after using with a slightly damp cloth.
2.  Clean the accessories in the usual way in soapy water.
3.  The door frame and seal and neighbouring parts must be cleaned carefully with a damp cloth when they are dirty.
4.  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.
5.  Cleaning Tip: For easier cleaning of the cavity walls that the food cooked can touch: Place half a lemon in a bowl, add 300ml (1/2 pint) water and heat on 100% microwave power for 10 minutes. Wipe the oven clean using a soft, dry cloth.

UTENSILS CAUTION
