When using electrical appliances, basic safety 
precautions should be followed, including the 
following: 
WARNING - To reduce the risk of burns, electric 
shock, fire, injury to persons or exposure to 
excessive microwave energy: 
1. 
Read all instructions before using the 
appliance. 
2. 
Read and follow the specific 
"PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE 
EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE 
MICROWAVE ENERGY" on page 1.   
3. 
This appliance must be grounded. Connect 
only to properly grounded outlet. See 
"grounding instructions " on page 3. 
4. 
Install or locate this appliance only in 
accordance with the provided installation 
instructions.  
5. 
Some products such as whole eggs and 
sealed containers -for example, closed 
glass jars- are able to explode and should 
not be heated in this oven. 
6. 
Use this appliance only for its intended use 
as described in this manual. Do not use 
corrosive chemicals or vapors in this 
appliance. This type of oven is specifically 
designed to heat, cook, or dry food. It is not 
designed for industrial or laboratory use. 
7. 
As with any appliance, close supervision is 
necessary when used by children. 
8. 
To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:   
a. 
Do not overcook food. Carefully attend 
appliance when paper, plastic, or other 
combustible materials are placed inside the 
oven to facilitate cooking. 
b. 
Remove wire twist-ties from paper or 
plastic bags before placing bag in oven. 
c. 
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. 
d. 
Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. 
Do not leave paper products, cooking 
utensils or food in the cavity when not in 
use. 
9. 
Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea are 
able to be overheated beyond the boiling 
point without appearing to be boiling due to 
surface tension of the liquid. Visible 
bubbling or boiling when the container is 
removed from the microwave oven is not 
always present. THIS COULD RESULT IN 
VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING 
OVER WHEN A SPOON OR OTHER 
UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID. 
To reduce the risk of injury to person:   
a. 
Do not overheat the liquid. 
b. 
Stir the liquid both before and halfway 
through heating it. 
c. 
Do not use straight-sided containers with 
narrow necks. 
d. 
After heating, allow the container to stand 
in the microwave oven for a short time 
before removing the container. 
e. 
Use extreme care when inserting a spoon 
or other utensil into the container. 
10. 
Do not heat oil or fat for deep-frying. It is 
difficult to control the temperature of oil in 
microwave oven. 
11. 
Pierce foods with heavy skins such as 
potatoes, whole squash, apples and 
chestnuts before cooking. 
12. 
The contents of feeding bottles and baby 
jars should be stirred or shaken and the 
temperature should be checked before 
serving in order to avoid burns. 
13. 
Cooking utensils may become hot because 
of heat transferred from the heated food. 
Potholders may be needed to handle the 
utensil. 
14. 
Do not cover or block any openings on the 
appliance. 
15. 
Do not store or use this appliance outdoors.
