Microwave Oven Safety
• Do not immerse cord or plug in water.
• Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
• Do not let cord hang over edge of table
or counter.
• See door surface cleaning instructions in
the “Caring for Your Microwave Oven”
section.
For microwave ovens with a ventilating
hood:
• Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently –
Grease should not be allowed to
accumulate on hood or filter.
• When flaming foods under the hood,
turn the fan off. The fan, if operating,
may spread the flame.
• Use care when cleaning the vent-hood
filter. Corrosive cleaning agents, such
as lye-based oven cleaners, may
damage the filter.
• To reduce the risk of fire in the oven
cavity:
– Do not overcook food. Carefully attend
the microwave oven if 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 bag
in oven.
– If materials inside the oven should ignite,
keep oven door closed, 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 pur-
poses. Do not leave paper products,
cooking utensils, or food in the cavity
when not in use.
– Do not mount over a sink.
– Do not store anything directly on top
of the microwave oven when the micro-
wave oven is in operation.
– SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS –
(c) Do not operate the oven if it is
damaged. It is particularly important
that the oven door close properly and
that there is no damage to the:
(1) Door (bent),
(2) Hinges and latches (broken
or loosened),
(3) Door seals and sealing surfaces.
(d) The oven should not be adjusted or
repaired by anyone except properly
qualified service personnel.
PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID
POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO
EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY...
(a) Do not attempt to operate this oven
with the door open since open-door
operation can result in harmful
exposure to microwave energy. It is
important not to defeat or tamper with
the safety interlocks.
(b) Do not place any object between the
oven front face and the door or allow
soil or cleaner residue to accumulate
on sealing surfaces.
