USING YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN
Installation
1.Make sure that all packaging materials are removed from the oven.
2.WARNING: Check your oven for any damage, such as misaligned or bent door, damaged door seals and sealing surface, broken or loose door hinges, loose latches and dents inside the cavity or on the door. If there is any damage, do not operate the oven. Contact customer service at 1 (800)
3.The microwave must be placed on a flat, stable surface to hold its weight and the heaviest food likely to be cooked in the oven.
4.Do not place the oven where heat, moisture or high humidity are generated or near combustible materials.
5.Allow at least 4 inches (10 cm) of space at the top, sides and back of the oven for proper ventilation. Do not cover or block any openings on the appliance. Do not remove the feet of the microwave.
6.For safety purposes this microwave oven must be plugged into a 20 Amp circuit. No other electrical appliance or lighting circuits should be on this line. If in doubt, consult a licensed electrician.
7.The voltage used at the wall receptacle must be the same as specified on the oven rating plate. Use of a higher voltage is dangerous and may result in a fire or other type of accident causing oven damage. Low voltage will cause slow cooking. In case your microwave oven does not perform normally in spite of correct voltage, remove and reinsert the plug. If problem continues, try another outlet or call customer service at 1 (800)
8.Do not operate the microwave oven without the glass turntable or turntable drive plate in their proper positions. Never place the glass turntable upside down in the microwave.
