IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

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:

■Read all instructions before using the microwave oven.

■Read and follow the specific “PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY” found in this section.

■The microwave oven must be grounded. Connect only to properly grounded outlet. See “GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS” found in this section.

■Install or locate the microwave oven only in accordance with the provided Installation Instructions.

■Some products such as whole eggs in the shell and sealed containers – for example, closed glass jars – may explode and should not be heated in the microwave oven.

■Use the microwave oven only for its intended use as described in this manual. Do not use corrosive chemicals or vapors in the microwave oven. This type of oven is specifically designed to heat, cook, or dry food. It is not designed for industrial or laboratory use.

■Oversized foods or oversized metal utensils should not be inserted in the microwave oven as they may create a fire or risk of electric shock.

■Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can burn off the pad and touch electrical parts involving a risk of electric shock.

■Do not store any materials, other than manufacturer's recommended accessories, in this oven when not in use.

■Do not operate the microwave oven if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly, or if it has been damaged or dropped.

■Do not deep fry in oven. Microwavable utensils are not suitable and it is difficult to maintain appropriate deep frying temperatures.

■Do not use paper products when appliance is operated in the “PAN BROWN” mode.

■Do not cover racks or any other part of the oven with metal foil. This will cause overheating of the oven.

■As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary when used by children.

■The microwave oven should be serviced only by qualified service personnel. Contact nearest authorized service company for examination, repair, or adjustment.

■Do not cover or block any openings on the microwave oven.
