Your safety and the safety of others is very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages.

This is the safety alert symbol.

This symbol alerts you to hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will be preceded by the safety alert symbol and the word “DANGER” or “WARNING.” These words mean:

You will be killed or seriously injured if you don’t follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don’t follow instructions.

All safety messages will identify the hazard, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

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 micro- wave 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 “GROUND- ING INSTRUCTIONS” found at the end of this section.

•Install or locate the microwave oven only in accordance with the provided installation instructions.

•Some products such as whole eggs 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.

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

•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.

•The microwave oven should be serviced only by qualified service personnel. Call an authorized service company for examination, repair or adjustment.

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

•Do not store the microwave oven outdoors. Do not use the microwave oven near water – for example, near a kitchen sink, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, and the like.

•Do not immerse cord or plug in water.

•Keep cord away from heated surfaces.

•Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.

•See door surface cleaning instructions in the “Caring for Your Microwave Oven” section.

•Do not mount over a sink.
