Important Safety Instructions
When using electrical appliances, basic safety
precautions should be followed, including the
following:
WARNING–To reduce the risk of
burns, electric shock, fire, injury to persons
or exposure to excessive microwave energy:
• Read and follow the specific ‘‘Precautions to
Avoid Possible Exposure to Excessive Microwave
Energy’’ on the previous page.
• This appliance must be grounded. Connect only
to properly grounded outlet. See Grounding
Instructions section in the back of this guide.
• Use this appliance only for its intended use as
described in this guide. Do not use corrosive
chemicals or vapors in this appliance. This
microwave/convection oven is specifically
designed to heat or cook food, and is not
intended for laboratory or industrial use.
• This over-the-range oven was designed for
use over ranges no wider than 42 inches.
It may be installed over both gas and electric
cooking equipment.
• For best operation, plug this appliance into
its own electrical outlet, to prevent flickering
of lights, blowing of fuse or tripping of circuit
breaker.
• Do not mount this appliance over a sink. Install
or locate this appliance only in accordance with
the provided Installation Instructions.
• Do not cover or block any openings on the
appliance.
• Do not store this appliance outdoors. Do not
use this product near water—for example, in a wet
basement, near a swimming pool or near a sink.
• This microwave oven is not approved or tested
for marine use.
• Do not immerse power cord or plug in water.
• Keep power cord away from heated surfaces.
• Do not let power cord hang over edge of table
or counter.
• Do not operate this appliance if it has a
damaged power cord or plug, if it is not
working properly, or if it has been damaged
or dropped.
• See door surface cleaning instructions in the
Care and Cleaning section(s) of this guide.
• This appliance should be serviced only by
qualified service personnel. Contact nearest
authorized service facility for examination,
repair or adjustment.
• As with any appliance, close supervision is
necessary when used by children.
• To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
—Do not overcook food. Carefully attend appliance
if paper, plastic or other combustible materials are
placed inside the oven to facilitate cooking.
—Remove wire twist-ties and metal handles from
paper or plastic containers before placing them in
the oven.
—Do not use your microwave/convection oven to
dry newspapers.
—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
also ignite.
—Do not pop popcorn in your microwave oven
unless in a special microwave popcorn accessory
or unless you use popcorn labeled for use in
microwave ovens.
—Do not overcook potatoes. They could dehydrate
and catch fire, causing damage to your oven.
—Do not operate the oven in microwave or
combination modes while empty to avoid
damage to the oven and the danger of fire.
If by accident the oven should run empty a
minute or two, no harm is done. However, try to
avoid operating the oven empty at all times—it
saves energy and prolongs the life of the oven.
—Do not use the oven for storage purposes.
Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils
or food in the oven when not in use.
—If materials inside oven should ignite, keep
oven door closed, turn oven off, and disconnect
power cord, or shut off power at the fuse or
circuit breaker panel.
