Your safety and the safety of others are very important. We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages. This is the safety alert symbol. This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others. All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING." These words mean: You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately follow instructions.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS * Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently - Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on hood or filter. • Use care when cleaning the vent-hood filter. Corrosive cleaning agents, such as lye-based oven cleaners, may damage the filter. * Oversized foods or oversized metal utensils should not be inserted in the microwave oven as they may create a fire or risk of electric shock. • Do not cover or block any openings on the microwave oven. * Do not clean with metal scouring pads.

QUESTIONS ANSWERS Can I operate my microwave oven without the turntable or turn the turntable over to hold a large dish? You can turn off the turntable to heat 2 dinner plates side by side or one dish that's larger than the turntable. However, if you only need to heat one plate on the turntable, keep the turntable on for best cooking results. Also, you should not turn over the turntable. A plate used on the turntable must fit on it when the turntable is correct side up.
