Warning and Important Safety Instructions appearing in this 
Use & Care Guide are not meant to cover all possible
conditions and situations that may occur. Common sense, 
caution, and care must be exercised when installing, 
maintaining, or operating microwave.

Always contact your dealer, distributor, service agent, or
manufacturer about problems or conditions you do not
understand.

DANGER – Immediate hazards which WILL result in
severe personal injury or death.

WARNING – Hazards or unsafe practices which COULD 
result in severe personal injury or death.

CAUTION – Hazards or unsafe practices which COULD
result in minor personal injury.

To avoid personal injury or property damage, observe the 
following:

1.    DO NOT deep fat fry in oven. Fat could overheat and 

be hazardous to handle.

2.    DO NOT cook or reheat eggs in shell or with an 

unbroken yolk using microwave energy. Pressure may 
build up and erupt. Pierce yolk with fork or knife before 
cooking.

3.    Pierce skin of potatoes, tomatoes, and similar foods 

before cooking with microwave energy. When skin is 
pierced, steam escapes evenly.

4.    DO NOT operate oven without load or food in oven 

cavity.

5.    Use only popcorn in packages designed and labeled for 

microwave use. Popping time varies depending on oven 
wattage. Do not continue to heat after popping has 
stopped. Popcorn will scorch or burn. Do not leave oven 
unattended.

6.    DO NOT use regular cooking thermometers in oven. 

Most cooking thermometers contain mercury and may 
cause an electrical arc, malfunction, or damage to oven.

7.    DO NOT use metal utensils in oven.

8.    Never use paper, plastic, or other combustible materials 

that are not intended for cooking.

9.    When cooking with paper, plastic, or other combustible 

materials, follow manufacturer’s recommendations on 
product use.

10.  DO NOT use paper towels which contain nylon or 

other synthetic fibers. Heated synthetics could melt and 
cause paper to ignite.

11.  DO NOT heat sealed containers or plastic bags in 

oven. Food or liquid could expand quickly and cause 
container or bag to break. Pierce or open container or 
bag before cooking.

12.  To avoid pacemaker malfunction, consult physician or 

pacemaker manufacturer about effects of microwave 
energy on pacemaker.
