 Microwave oven is a versatile oven that employs a revolutionary high quality,
high-speed cooking technology. This new technology cooks the outside of foods, while also penetrating
the surface so the inside cooks simultaneously. Foods cook evenly and fast, retaining their natural
moisture. Bread products brown and become crisp while vegetables retain their color and texture.
While halogen light  is the primary  source of power, a "microwave boost" is automatically added with
certain foods. The oven can also be used solely as a 950 watt microwave oven.
It is suggested that you thoroughly read this manual and carefully follow all of the instructions provided.
INSTALLATION
UNPACKING
Immediately after unpacking the oven, check for possible shipping damage. If this oven is found to be
damaged, save the packaging material and contact the carrier within 15 days of delivery.
Prior to installation, verify that the electrical supply agrees with the specifications on the data plate
located on the back of the oven. If the supply and specifications do not agree contact your local Hobart
Service Office immediately.
Peel the protective shipping film from the exterior of the oven before installation or use.
LOCATION
Locate the oven on a smooth, flat and stable surface. Do not place the oven in a hot or damp area, i.e.,
near a gas or electric range.  The oven must not be located above or next to sources of excessive heat
or greasy air.  There must be a 3" (76 mm) clearance on the sides and back of the oven for free air flow.
It is recommended that the oven be located so the housing can be removed for service. The housing
should NOT be removed by anyone except qualified service personnel.
Locate oven on a level counter surface. The counter must be 36

of supporting the 80 lb. (36 kg) ovenload.
Radio Interference
There is possibility of a small amount of interference with weak broadcast signals if the oven is too close
to a radio or TV or similar equipment. If interference is present, it may be reduced by:
1.
Cleaning the door and sealing surface of the oven.
2.
Increasing the separation of the oven from the receiving device.
3.
Using an antenna to obtain stronger signal reception for the receiving device.
