PROPER AND SAFE USE OF YOUR OVEN

SAFETY

•The oven must be level.

•The turntable and turntable roller rest must be in the oven during cooking.

•Place the cookware gently on the turntable and handle it carefully to avoid possible breakage.

•Incorrect use of browning dish may cause the turntable to break. See page 8.

•When using the Popcorn feature of this microwave oven, use only the bag sizes specified in the instruction manual.

•Do not pop popcorn except in a microwave approved popcorn popper or in a commercial package recommended especially for microwave ovens.

•The oven has several built-in safety switches to ensure that the power remains off when the door is open. Do not tamper with these switches.

•Do not operate the microwave oven empty. Operating the oven without any food or food that is extremely low in moisture can cause fire, charring or sparking.

•Do not cook bacon directly on the turntable. Excessive local heating of the turntable may cause it to break.

•Do not heat baby bottles or baby food in the microwave oven. Uneven heating may occur and could cause physical injury.

•Do not heat narrow-necked containers, such as syrup bottles.

•Do not attempt to deep-fry in your microwave oven.

•Do not do home canning in this microwave oven as it is impossible to be sure all contents of the jar have reached boiling temperature.

•Do not use this microwave oven for commercial purposes. This microwave oven is made for household use only.

•Liquids, such as beverages, that are heated in a microwave oven, can overheat beyond their boiling point without any evidence of bubbling. This could result in hot liquids suddenly boiling over.

To prevent this occurrence, the following steps should be taken:

(a)Avoid using straight-sided containers with narrow necks.

(b)Do not overheat.

(c)Stir the liquid before placing the container in the oven and again halfway through the heating time.

(d)After heating, allow to stand in the oven for a short time, stirring again before carefully removing the container.
