IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using electrical appliances basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:
WARNING – To reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, injury to persons or exposure to excessive microwave energy:
-
Read all instructions before using the appliance.
-
Read and follow the specific: “PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY”.
-
This appliance must be grounded. Connect only to properly grounded outlet.
-
Install or locate this appliance only in accordance with the provided installation instructions.
-
Some products such as whole eggs and sealed containers – for example, closed glass jars – are able to explode and should not be heated in this oven.
-
Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in the manual. Do not use corrosive chemicals or vapors in this appliance. This type of oven is specifically designed to heat, 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 appliance 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 personnel. Contact nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair, or adjustment.
-
Do not cover or block any openings on the appliance.
-
Do not store this appliance outdoors. Do not use this product near water – for example, near a kitchen sink, in a wet basement, near a swimming pool, or similar location.
-
Do not immerse cord or plug in water.
-
Keep cord away from heated surface.
-
Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.
-
When cleaning surfaces of door and oven that comes together on closing the door, use only mild, nonabrasive soaps, or detergent applied with a sponge or soft cloth.
-
To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
-
Do not overcook food. Carefully attend appliance when paper, plastic, or other combustible materials are placed inside the oven to facilitate cooking.
-
Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bag before placing bag in oven.
-
If material inside of the oven ignite, keep oven door closed, turn oven off, and disconnect the power cord, or shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.
-
Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils, or food in the cavity when not in use.
-
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 LIQUID SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN THE CONTAINER IS DISTURBED OR A UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.
To reduce the risk of injury to persons: -
Do not overheat the liquid.
-
Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it.
-
Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.
-
After heating, allow the container to stand in the microwave oven for a short time before removing the container.
-
Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil into the container.
-
Oversized food or oversized metal utensils should not be inserted in a microwave/ toaster oven as they may create a fire or risk of electric shock.
-
Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can burn off the pad and touch electrical parts involving a risk of electric shock.
-
Do not use paper products when appliance is operated in the toaster mode.
-
Do not store any materials, other than manufacturer’s recommended accessories, in this oven when not in use.
-
Do not cover racks or any other part of the oven with metal foil. This will cause over- heating of the oven.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
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 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-blade grounded plug, and 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.
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 appliance is properly installed and grounded.
- 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
- If a long cord or extension cord is used:
- The 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.
- 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.
RADIO INTERFERENCE
- 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:
