Precautions to Avoid 
Possible Exposure 
to Excessive 
Microwave Energy
A.  
DO NOT attempt to operate this oven with the door open 
since open-door operation can result in harmful exposure 
to microwave energy. It is important not to defeat or 
tamper with the safety interlocks.
B.  
DO NOT place any object between the oven front 
face and the door or allow soil or cleaner residue to 
accumulate on sealing surfaces.
C.  
DO NOT operate the oven if it is damaged. It is 
particularly important that oven door close properly and 
that there is no damage to:
    1. door (bent),
    2. hinges and latches (broken or loosened),
    3. door seals and sealing surfaces.
D.  Oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone 
except properly qualified service personnel.
 CAUTION
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 com-
bustible materials, follow manufacturer's recom-
mendations 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.
