To reduce the risk of fire in the oven
cavity (continued):
-Test dinnerware or cookware before
using.
To test a dish for safe use, put
it into the oven with a cup of water
besiie it. Cook at 106% Cook Power
for one minute.
If the dish gets hot
and water stays cool, do not use it.
Some dishes (melamine, some
ceramic dinnenrvare, etc.) absorb
microwave energy, becoming too hot
to handle and slowing cooking times.
Cooking in metal containers not
designed for microwave use can
damage the oven, as can containers
with hidden metal (twist-ties, foil lining,
staples, metallic glaze or trim).
-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 operate any heating or cooking
appliance beneath this appliance.
-Do not mount unit over or near any
portion of a heating or cooking appliance.
-Do not mount over a sink.
-Do not store anything directly on top of
the appliance when appliance is in
operation.
. Read and follow “Operating safety
precautions” starting on page 6.
1. A short power-supply cord is provided
to reduce the risks resulting from
becoming entangled in or tripping over
a longer cord.
2. Longer cord sets or extension cords
are available and may be used if care
is exercised in their use.
3. If a long cord or extension cord is used
temporarily, (a) the marked electrical
rating of the cord set or extension cord
should be at least as great as the
electriil rating of the appliance, (b) the
extension cord must be a grounding-
type, g-wire cord that has a 3-blade
grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle
that will accept the plug on the appli-
ance,
and
(c) the longer cord should be
arranged so that it will not drape over
the countertop or tabletop where it can
be pulled on by children or tripped
over accidentally.
