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:
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
11.Read all instructions before using the appliance.
12.Read and follow the specific “PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID
POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE
ENERGY” found on page 1.
13.This appliance must be grounded. Connect only to properly
grounded outlet.
See “GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS” found on page 2.
14.Install or locate this appliance only in accordance with the
provided installation instructions.
15.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.
16.As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary
when used by children.
17.Only allow children to use the oven without supervision
when adequate instructions have been given so that the
child is able to use the oven in a safe way and understands
the hazards of improper use.
18.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.
19.This appliance should be serviced only by qualified service
personnel. Contact nearest authorized service facility for
examination, repair or adjustment.
10. Do not cover or block any openings on the appliance.
11. Do not store this appliance outdoors. Do not use this
product near water — for example, near a kitchen sink, in a
wet basement, or near a swimming pool, or similar
locations.
12. Do not immerse cord or plug in water.
13. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
14. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.
15. When cleaning surfaces of door and oven that comes
together on closing the door, use only mild, non-abrasive
soaps or detergents applied with a sponge or soft cloth
16. To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
a) Do not overcook food. Carefully attend appliance when
paper, plastic, or other combustible materials are placed
inside the oven to facilitate cooking.
b) Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before
placing bag in oven.
c) If materials inside 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.
d) Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do not leave
paper products, cooking utensils, or food in the cavity
when not in use.
17. Do not use this microwave oven to heat corrosive
chemicals (for example, sulfides and chlorides). Vapours
from such corrosive chemicals may interact with the
contact and springs of the safety interlock switches thereby
rendering them inoperable.
18. Keep the waveguide cover clean at all times.
Wipe the oven interior with a soft damp cloth after each
use.
If you leave grease or fat anywhere in the cavity it may
overheat, smoke or even catch fire when next using the
oven.
19. Never heat oil or fat for deep frying as you cannot control
the temperature and doing so may lead to overheating and
fire.
20. Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea are able to be
overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing to
be boiling due to surface tension of the liquid. 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 A SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS
INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.
To reduce the risk of injury to persons:
1 Do not overheat the liquid.
2 Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it
3 Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.
4 After heating, allow the container to stand in the
microwave oven for a short time before removing the
container.
5 Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other
utensil into the container.
21. Oversized foods or oversized metal utensils should not be
inserted in a thicrowave oven as they may create a fire or
risk of electric shock.
22. Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can bum off
the pad and touch electrical parts involving a risk of electric
shock.
23. Do not store any materials, other than manufacturer’s
recommended accessories, in this oven when not in use.
24. Do not cover racks or any other part of the oven with metal
foil. This will cause overtheating of the oven.
25. Do not operate the oven without the glass tray in place.
Be sure it is properly sitting on the rotating base.
Prior to use(If your oven has a grill element)
In order to protect your oven during transportation and storage, the grill element is covered with a protective coating.
To remove this coating the grill element must be heated for 5 minutes.
This procedure will produce some bad odors as the protective coating on the element disappears.
