GETTING TO KNOW YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN
Do not overcook potatoes. Fire could result. At
the end of the recom-
mended cooking time,
potatoes should be
slightly firm because
they will continue cook-
ing during standing
time. After micro-
waving, let potatoes
stand for 5 minutes.
They will finish cooking
while standing.
Do not start a microwave oven when it is empty.
Product life may be
shortened.
If you practice
programming the oven,
put a container of
water in the oven or
use the Demo/learning
feature (see “Using the
demo/learning feature”
later in this section).
It is normal for the
oven door to look wavy after the oven has been
running for a while.
Do not use newspaper or other printed paper in the
oven. Fire could result.
Do not dry flowers,
fruit, herbs, wood,
paper, gourds, or
clothes in the oven.
Fire could result.
OPERATING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (CONT.)
Do not try to melt paraffin wax in the oven. Paraffin
wax will not melt in a
microwave oven because
it allows microwaves to
pass through it.
Do not operate the microwave oven unless the
glass turntable is
securely in place and
can rotate freely on the
support rollers. The
turntable can rotate in
either direction.
Make sure the rollers
are completely inside
the center circle of the
turntable; this will let the
turntable rotate properly.
Make sure the turntable is correct-side up in the
oven. Carefully place the cookware on your
turntable to avoid possibly breaking it.
Handle your turntable with care when removing
it from the oven to avoid possibly breaking it. If your
turntable cracks or breaks, contact your dealer for
a replacement.
When you use a browning dish, the browning
dish bottom must be at least
3
16 inch (5 mm) above
the turntable. Follow the directions supplied with the
browning dish.
If your electric power line or outlet voltage is
less than 110 volts,
cooking times may be
longer. Have a qualified
electrician check your
electrical system.
