IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
■ Use the microwave oven only for its intended use as described
in this manual. Do not use corrosive chemicals or vapors in the
microwave oven. 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 the microwave oven if it has a damaged cord
or plug, if it is not working properly, or if it has been damaged
or dropped.
■ The microwave oven should be serviced only by qualified
service personnel. Call an authorized service company for
examination, repair, or adjustment.
■ See door surface cleaning instructions in the “Microwave Oven
Care” section.
■ To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
– Do not overcook food. Carefully attend the microwave oven
when paper, plastic, or other combustible materials are
placed inside the oven to facilitate cooking.
– Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before
placing bags in oven.

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 LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN
THE CONTAINER IS DISTURBED OR A SPOON OR OTHER
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 foods or oversized metal utensils should not
be inserted in the microwave oven as they may create a
fire or risk of electric shock.

off the pad and touch electrical parts involving a risk of
electric shock.
