To reduce the risk of fire in the oven

cavity (continued):

-Test dinnemare or cookware before

using.

To test a dish for safe use, put

it into the oven with a cup of water

beside it. Cook at 100% Cook Power

for one minute.

If the dish gets hot

and water stays cool, do not use it.

Borne dishes (melamine, some

ceramic dinnennrare, etc.) absorb

microwave energy, becoming too hot

to handle and slowing cooking times.

Cooking in metal containers not

designed for microwave use could

damage the oven, as co&i 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

purposes. Do not leave paper products,

cooking utensils, or food in the cavity

when not in use.

l

Because of the automatic exhaust fan

feature, the following cautions must be

observed:

- Do not leave the area when using your

cooktop at a high setting. Accidental

fires from boilovers or spattering on the

surface unit could spread, especially if

the exhaust fan is operating.

- Do not allow grease and soil to build up

in the grease filter. Exhaust fan effi-

ciency will decrease and fire could

result. Clean often following the filter

cleaning instructions on page 47.

- Do not change the cooktop or oven

lights without turning the power off at

the main power suppfy (see page 48).

Electrical shock could result.

- Do not flame foods on a cooktop

surface below this unit. The fan, if

operating, couM spread the flame and

cause personal injury or property

damage.

l

Use care when cleaning the vent hood

filter. Corrosive cleaning agents, such as

lye-based oven cleaners, coukl damage

filter.

l

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, 3-wire cord that has a 3-blade

grounding plug and a 3-slot recep-

tacle that will accept the plug on the

appliance, 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 acciden-

tally.

4. A qualified electrician must install a

properly grounded and polarized

3-prong receptacle near the appli-

ance.

PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID

POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO

1 EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY...

Do

not

attempt to operate this oven with

the door open since open-door operation

can result in harmful exposure to micro-

wave energy. It is important not to defeat

or tamper with the safety interlocks.

Do

not

place any object between the oven

front face and the door or allow soil or

cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing

surfaces.

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.

Do not operate the microwave oven if the

door window is broken.

The microwave oven should be checked

for microwave leakage by qualified service

personnel after a repair is made.

The oven should not be adjusted or

repaired by anyone except properly

qualified service personnel.

Do

not

operate the microwave oven with

the outer cabinet removed.

5

Operating safety precautions

To reduce the risk of bums, fire,

electrical shock, injury to persons, or

damage when

using the

microwave

oven,

follow the precautions on pages 6-7.

Never cook or reheat a whole egg inside

the shell.

Steam buildup in whole eggs may

cause them to burst and burn you, and

possibly damage the oven.

Slice

hard-boiled

eggs before heating. In rare instances,

poached eggs have been known to explode.

Cover

poached eggs

and allow a

standing

time of one minute before cutting into them.

Stir before heating

For best results, stir any liquid several

times before heating or reheating.

Liquids

heated in certain containers (especially

cylindrical containers) may become over-

heated. The liquid may splash out with a

loud noise during or after heating or when

adding ingredients (coffee, etc.) resulting in

harm to the oven and possible personal

injury.

Never

lean on the door or allow a child to

swing on it when the door is open. Injury

could result.

Use hot pads.

Microwave energy does not

heat containers, but the hot food does.

Do not overcook potatoes.

Fire could

result. At the end of the recommended

cooking time, potatoes shoukf be slightly

firm because they will continue cooking

during standing time.

After microwaving,

wrap

potatoes in foil and

set aside

for

5 minutes. They will finish cooking while

standing.

6

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.

It is normal for the inside of 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.

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.

General information

Fuee box

If your electrical power line or outlet

voltage

is less than

110

volts, cooking times

may be longer. Have a qualified electrician

check your electrical system.

How microwave cooking works

Mkrowave

ovens

ars

safe.

Microwave

energy ‘E not hot. It causes food to make its

own heat, and it’s this heat that cooks the

food.

Microwaves

are like TV waves or light

waves. You cannot see them, but you can

see what they do.

Magnetron

Mixing antenna

Oven cevity

A magnetron

in the

microwave

oven

produces microwaves. The microwaves

move into the area under the oven floor.

There they bounce off the mixing antenna

into the oven where they contact the food.

8

Microwaves

pass through most glass,

paper, and plastics without heating them so

food absorbs the energy. Microwaves

bounce off metal pans so food does not

absorb the energy.

Microwaves

may not reach the center of a

roast. The heat spreads to the center from

the outer, cooked areas just as in regular

oven cooking. This is one of the reasons for

letting some foods (for example, roasts or

baked potatoes) stand for a while after

cooking, or for stirring some foods during the

cooking time.

The microwaves disturb water molecules

in the food. As the molecules bounce around

bumping into each other, heat is made, like

rubbing your hands together. This is the

heat that does the cooking.

Radio interference

Operation of the microwave oven may cause

interference to your radio, TV, or similar

equipment. When there is interference, it

may be reduced or eliminated by taking the

following measures:

l

Clean

door and sealing surfaces of the

oven.

l

Adjust

the receiving antenna of radio or

television.

l

Move the receiver away from the micro-

wave oven.

l

Plug

the microwave oven into a different

outlet so that the microwave oven and

receiver are on different branch circuits.
