Before you begin, carefully read the following
instructions.
1. Empty the microwave oven and clean inside it
with a soft, damp cloth. Check for damage such
as misaligned door, damage around the door or
dents inside the oven or on the exterior. If there
is any damage, please do not operate the unit
until it has been checked by an authorized
Whirlpool@ service technician and any repairs
have been made.
2. Put the oven on a cart, counter, table or shelf
that is strong enough to hold the oven and the
food and utensils you put in it. (The control
side of the unit is the heavy side. Use care
when handling.) The weight of the oven is
approximately 31 Ibs (14 kg).
Fire, Electrical Shock, Excessive Exposure
To Microwave Energy, Personal Injury and
Product Damage Hazard
1 Do not block the rear air intake openings
and air vents on side of microwave oven.
Allow a few inches of space on side and
back of oven where vents and intake
openings are located. Blocking the air
intake openings and air vents could cause
damage to the oven and poor cooking
results. Make sure the microwave oven
legs are in place to ensure proper airflow.
J Do not install the oven next to or over a
heat source (for example a cook-top or
range) or in any area where excessive heat
and steam are generated. This could cause
a fire, electrical shock, excessive exposure
to microwave energy, other personal injury
or damage to the outside of the cabinet.
