~~Boilable”
cooking pouches and tightly
closed
plastic bags should be slit, pierced or vented
as directed by package. If they are not, plastic
could burst during or immediately after cooking,
possibly resulting
in injury. Also, plastic storage
containers should be at least partially uncovered
because they form a tight seal. When cooking
with containers tightly covered with plastic wrap,
remove covering carefully and direct steam away
from hands and face.

Use of the shelf accessory.
—Remove the shelf from oven when not in use.
—Do not store or cook with shelf on floor of oven.
Product damage may result.
—Use pot holders when handling the shelf and
cookware. They may be hot.
—Do not use microwave browning dish on shelf.
The shelf could overheat.
—Use the shelf only when cooking on 2 levels.
—Be sure that the shelf is positioned properly
inside the oven to prevent product damage.
Use of shelf with Sensor Cooking or Reheat is
not recommended. Do NOT use the metal shelf
with the Popcorn program (see the Sensor
Cooking, Reheat or Popcorn sections).
The Exhaust Hood
●
Have it installed and properly grounded by a
qualified installer. See the special installation
booklet packed with the microwave oven.
●
The exhaust fan in the oven will operate
automatically under certain conditions
(see Automatic Fan Feature). While the fan
is operating, caution is required to prevent
the starting and spreading of accidental
cooking fires while the exhaust fan is in
use. For this reason:
—Never leave surface units unattended at high
heat settings.
Boilovers
cause smoking and
greasy
spillovers
that may ignite and spread if
exhaust fan is operating. To minimize automatic
fan operation, use adequate sized cookware and
use high heat only when necessary.
—In the event of a grease fire,
smother flaming pan on surface
unit by covering pan completely
with well-fitting lid, cookie sheet
or flat tray.
—Clean the vent hood often. Do not allow grease
to buildup
on the hood or the filter.
—Use care when cleaning the vent hood filter.
Corrosive cleaning agents, such as lye-based
oven cleaners, may damage the filter.
—When flaming foods are under the hood,
turn the fan off. The fan, if operating, may
spread the flame.
