Important Safety Instructions

READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

WARNING : To prevent fire, burns, electric shock and other warnings:

Listed below are, as with all appliances, certain rules to follow and safeguards to assure high performance from this oven:

1.Do not use the oven for any reason other than food preparation, such as for drying clothes, paper, or any other nonfood items or for sterilizing purposes.

2.Do not use the oven when empty, this could damage the oven.

3.Do not use the oven cavity for any type of storage, such as papers, cookbook, cookware, etc.

4.Do not operate the oven without the metal tray in place. Be sure it is properly sitting on the rotating base.

5.Make sure you remove caps or lids prior to cooking when you cook food sealed in bottles.

6.Do not put foreign material between the oven surface and door. It could result in excessive leakage of microwave energy.

7.Do not use recycled paper products for cooking. They may contain impurities which could cause sparks and/or fires when used during cooking.

8.Do not pop popcorn unless popped in a microwave approved popcorn popper or unless it's commercially

packaged and recommended especially for microwave ovens. Microwave popped corn produces a lower yield than conventional popping; there will be a number of unpopped kernels. Do not use oil unless specified by the manufacturer.

9.Do not cook any food surrounded by a membrane, such as egg yolks, potatoes, chicken livers, etc., without first piercing them several times with a fork.

10.Do not pop popcorn longer than the manufacturer's directions. (popping time is generally below 3 minutes). Longer cooking does not yield more popped corn, it can cause scorchings and fire.

Also, the cooking tray can become too hot to handle or may break.

11.If smoke is emitted, switch off or unplug the appliance and keep the door closed in order to stifle any flames.

12.When heating food in plastic or paper containers, keep an eye on the oven due to the possibility of ignition.
