SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

a.

DO NOT overcook food. Carefully attend oven
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. DO NOT
leave paper products, cooking utensils, or food
in the cavity when not in use.

WARNING

!

To avoid risk of fire in the oven cavity:

WARNING

!

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:

i)

Do not overheat the liquid.

ii)

Stir the liquid both before and halfway through
heating it.

iii) Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow

necks.

iv) After heating, allow the container to stand in the

microwave oven for a short time before removing
the container.

v)

Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or
other utensil into the container.

1.

Do not deep fat fry in oven. Fat could overheat
and be hazardous to handle.

2.

Do not cook or reheat eggs in shell or with an
unbroken yolk using microwave energy. Pressure
may build up and erupt. Pierce yolk with fork or
knife before cooking.

3.

Pierce skin of potatoes, tomatoes, and similar
foods before cooking with microwave energy.
When skin is pierced, steam escapes evenly.

4.

Do not operate equipment without load or food in
oven cavity.

5.

Use only popcorn in packages designed and
labeled for microwave use. 

Popping time varies

depending on oven wattage. 

Do not continue

to heat after popping has stopped. Popcorn will
scorch or burn. Do not leave oven unattended.

6.

Do not use regular cooking thermometers in
oven. Most cooking thermometers contain
mercury and may cause an electrical arc,
malfunction, or damage to oven.

7.

Do not use metal utensils in oven.

8.

Never use paper, plastic, or other combustible
materials that are not intended for cooking.

9.

When cooking with paper, plastic, or other
combustible materials, follow manufacturer's
recommendations on product use.

10. Do not use paper towels which contain nylon or

other synthetic fibers. Heated synthetics could
melt and cause paper to ignite.

11. Do not heat sealed containers or plastic bags in

oven. Food or liquid could expand quickly and
cause container or bag to break. Pierce or open
container or bag before heating.

12. To avoid pacemaker malfunction, consult

physician or pacemaker manufacturer about
effects of microwave energy on pacemaker.

13. An authorized servicer MUST inspect equipment

annually. Record all inspections and repairs for
future use.

14. Clean oven regularly and remove any food

deposits.

15. To avoid surface deterioration, keep the oven in a

clean condition. Infrequent cleaning could
adversely affect the life of the appliance and
possibly result in a hazadous situation.
