General safety
READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR
FUTURE REFERENCE
• The built-in safety interlock switches
prevent the microwave oven from
operating when the door is open.
• Do not tamper with them, or attempt to
operate the oven with the door open as
open door operation can result in exposure
to microwave energy.
• Do not allow food spills or cleaner residue
to accumulate on door sealing surfaces. See
the Cleaning and Care section for cleaning
instructions.

door closes properly and that there is no
damage to the: (1) door (warped), (2)
