springs of the safety interlock switches,
thereby rendering them inoperable.

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 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.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
General Use
1
Do NOT attempt to tamper with or make any
adjustments or repairs to door, control panel or
any other part of the oven. Do NOT remove
outer panel from oven. Repairs should only be
done by qualified service personnel.
2
Do NOT operate the oven empty. The
microwave energy will reflect continuously
throughout the oven if no food or water is
present to absorb energy.
3
If a fire occurs in the oven, touch the
Stop/Clear button and LEAVE THE DOOR
CLOSED. Disconnect the power cord, or shut
off power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.
4
Do NOT attempt to dry clothes, newspapers or
other materials in the oven. They may catch on
fire.
5
Do NOT use recycled paper products.
Recycled paper towels, napkins and waxed
paper can contain metal flecks which may
cause arcing or ignite. Paper products
containing nylon or nylon filaments should be
avoided, as they may ignite.
6
Some styrofoam trays (like those that meat is
packaged on) have a thin strip of metal
embedded on the bottom. When microwaved,
the metal can burn the floor of the oven or
ignite a paper towel.
7
Avoid inserting nails, wire, etc. through any
holes in the unit during operation. Never insert
a wire, nail or any other metal objects through
the holes on the cavity or any other holes or
gaps, because such objects may cause
electric shock and microwave leakage.
Utensils
1
METAL CONTAINERS or dishes with metallic
rims should not be used. Arcing may occur.
2
METAL TWIST-TIES may not be used in the
microwave oven.
3
Do NOT use SEALED JARS or NARROW
NECK bottles for cooking or reheating. They
may shatter.
4
Do NOT use CONVENTIONAL THER-
MOMETERS in the microwave oven. They
may cause arcing.
5
Remove PLASTIC STORE WRAPS before
cooking or defrosting foods in the oven.
6
For FURTHER INFORMATION on proper
cooking utensils, refer to the COOKING
GUIDE on page 19.
Food
1
Never use your microwave oven for HOME
CANNING. The oven is not designed to permit
proper canning. Improperly canned food may
spoil and be dangerous to consume.
2
COOKING TIMES given in the cooking guide
are approximate. Factors that may affect
cooking are starting temperature, altitude,
volume, size and shape of food and utensils
used. As you become familiar with the oven,
you will be able to adjust for these factors.
