    • door seals and sealing surfaces.
  4. The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except properly qualified service personnel.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

  • This microwave must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electrical shock by providing an escape wire for the electrical current.
  • This microwave is equipped with a cord that has a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The power cord must be plugged into an outlet that is properly grounded. If the outlet is a 2 prong wall outlet, it is your responsibility to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3 prong wall outlet. The serial rating plate indicates the voltage and frequency the microwave is designed for.
  • WARNING – Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or service agent if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the microwave is properly grounded.
  • If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3 wire extension cord that has a 3 blade grounded plug and a 3 slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the microwave. The marked electrical rating of the extension cord must be at least as great as the electrical rating of the microwave. The longer cord must be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or tabletop where it can be pulled by children or tripped over.
  • DANGER – Electric Shock Hazard: Touching some of the internal components can cause serious personal injury or death. Do not disassemble this microwave.
  • WARNING – Electric Shock Hazard: Improper use of the grounded plug can result in electric shock. Do not plug the microwave in if the grounded plug is damaged.
  • A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
  • If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similar qualified person to avoid hazard.
  • Have a qualified electrician install a grounded outlet near the microwave if the power cord is too short.

SAFETY – SUPERHEATED LIQUID

  • Liquids are able to be overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing to be boiling due to the surface tension of the liquid. Visible bubbling will not always be present when the liquid is removed from the microwave. This could result in very hot liquids suddenly boiling over when a utensil or other item such as a tea bag is inserted into the liquid.
  • To reduce the risk of injury:
    • Do not overheat liquids. Do not heat any liquid for more than 2 minutes per cup.
    • Stir liquids before and halfway through heating.
    • Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks as this can cause a build up of steam.
    • Superheated liquid can begin to spontaneously boil when removed from the microwave. After heating, allow the liquid to stand in the microwave for 30 seconds before removing.
    • Use extreme care when inserting a utensil or other item into hot liquids.
  • The contents of milk bottles and baby food jars should be stirred or shaken and the temperature checked before serving in order to avoid burns.
  • Do not defrost frozen beverages, especially carbonated beverages, in this microwave as they could explode.
  • Hot foods and steam can cause burns. Be careful when opening any container that has been heated in the microwave. Direct the opening away from the hands and face to avoid burns.

SAFETY – ARCING

  • Arcing refers to sparks inside the microwave while it is in operation. Arcing is caused by:
    • Metal or foil inside the microwave.
    • Recycled paper towels being used inside the microwave, as these can contain small pieces of metal.
  • If arcing is present, stop operation and remove any metal or paper towels from the microwave.

RADIO INTERFERENCE

  • This microwave generates and uses ISM frequencies and if not installed and used properly in strict accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions, it may cause interference to radio and television reception. It has been type-tested and found to comply with limits for ISM Equipment pursuant to Part 18 of the FCC Rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation.
  • However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in particular installations. If this microwave does cause interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the interference can be corrected by one or more of the following methods:
    • Reorient the receiving antenna of radio or television.
    • Move the microwave away from the receiver.
    • Plug the microwave into a different outlet so that the microwave and receiver are on different branch circuits.
  • The manufacturer is not responsible for any radio or TV interference caused by unauthorized modification of this microwave. It is the responsibility of the user to correct such interference.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

INSTALLATION

  • Remove all packing materials from the inside and outside of the microwave. Do not remove the cardboard mica sheet covering the magnetron.
  • Check the microwave for damage before using, such as a misaligned or bent door, damaged door seals, broken or loose door hinges or latches, or dents inside the cavity or on the door. If there is any damage, do not use the microwave, return it to its point of purchase or contact consumer care.
  • The microwave must be placed on a flat, stable surface that is able to hold its weight and the heaviest food likely to be cooked in it.
  • Do not use this microwave where heat, moisture or high humidity are generated.
  • Do not clean this microwave with or use near combustible materials.
  • Allow 7.5 cm (3 inches) of space above the microwave, 2.5 cm (1 inches) at the back of the microwave and 7.5 cm (3 inches) on both sides for proper air flow. Do not block any ventilation openings.
  • Do not operate the microwave without the glass tray, roller support and shaft in their correct positions.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

COOKING TECHNIQUES

To achieve the best results, follow the suggestions below.

STIRRING
Stir foods while cooking to distribute heat evenly. Food at the outside of the dish absorbs more energy and will heat more quickly so stir from the outside of the dish toward the center.

ARRANGEMENT
Arrange unevenly shaped foods with thicker, meatier parts toward the outside of the turntable so they receive more heat. To prevent overcooking, place delicate items toward the center of the turntable.

TURNING
Turn food over midway through cooking to expose all parts to the microwave energy. This is important with large items and meat.

STANDING
Foods cooked in a microwave build up internal heat and continue to cook for a few minutes after heating stops. Let foods stand to complete cooking, especially meats and liquids. All liquids should be allowed to stand for a few minutes after cooking and should be shaken or stirred before consuming.

ADDING MOISTURE
Microwave energy is attracted to water molecules. Food that is uneven in moisture content should be covered and allowed to stand after cooking to allow the heat to disperse evenly. Add a small amount of water to dry food to help it cook.

COOKING UTENSILS GUIDE

Certain utensils are inappropriate for use in a microwave. See below for more information on which utensils are recommended, which should only have limited use and which are not recommended.

RECOMMENDED

  • Microwave Browning Dish: Used to brown the exterior of small food items. Follow the directions provided with the browning dish.
  • Microwavable Plastic Wrap: Used to retain steam. Leave a small opening to avoid a build up of steam. Do not place directly on food.
  • Glass and Ceramic Bowls and Dishes: Use for heating or cooking.
  • Paper Plates and Cups: Use for short term heating at low temperatures. Do not use recycled paper as they can contain metal and could ignite.
  • Paper Towels and Napkins: Use for short term heating and covering. They can absorb excess moisture and prevent splattering. Do not use recycled paper towels as they can contain metal and could ignite.
  • Wax Paper: Use as a cover to prevent splattering.
  • Thermometers: Only use those that are labeled “microwave safe” and follow all directions.
    Check the food in several places. Conventional thermometers can be used once the food has been removed from the microwave.

LIMITED USE

  • Ceramic, Porcelain and Stoneware : Only use if they are labeled “microwave safe”.
  • Plastic: Only use if labeled “microwave safe”.

NOT RECOMMENDED

  • Glass Jars and Bottles: Regular glass is too thin to be used in a microwave. It can shatter and cause damage or injury.
  • Paper Bags: These are a fire hazard and could ignite. The only exception is popcorn bags, which are designed for microwave use.
  • Styrofoam Plates and Cups: These can melt and leave an unhealthy residue on food.
  • Plastic Storage and Food Containers: These can melt and ignite.
  • Metal Utensils: These can cause arcing and damage to the microwave. Remove all metal before operation.
  • Aluminum Foil: Using foil can cause arcing and damage the microwave.
