. ~~Boi]able” cooking pouches and tightly closed

plastic bags should be slit, pierced or vented as directed by package. If they are not, plastic could burst during or immediately after cooking, possibly resulting in injury. Also, plastic storage containers should beat least partially uncovered because they form a tight seal. When cooking with containers tightly covered with plastic wrap, remove covering carefully and direct steam away from hands and face.

●Hot foods and steam can cause burns. Be careful when opening any containers of hot food, including popcorn bags, cooking pouches and- boxes. To prevent possible injury, direct steam away from hands

and face.

●Use of the shelf accessory.

—Remove the shelf from oven when not in use.

—Do not store or cook with shelf on floor of oven. Product damage may result.

—Use pot holders when handling the shelf and cookware. They may be hot.

—Do not use microwave browning dish on shelf. The shelf could overheat.

—Use the shelf only when cooking on 2 levels.

—Be sure that the shelf is positioned properly inside the oven to prevent product damage. Use of shelf witi Auto Cook, Auto Reheat or Popcorn feature is not recommended (see the Auto Cook, Auto Reheat or Popcorn sections).

The Exhaust Hood

●Have it installed and properly grounded by a qualified installer. See the special installation booklet packed with the microwave oven.

●The exhaust fan in the oven will operate automatically under certain conditions (see Automatic Fan Feature). While the fan is operating, caution is required to prevent the starting and spreading of accidental cooking fires while the exhaust fan is in use. For this reason:

—Never leave surface units unattended at high heat settings. Boilover causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite and spread if exhaust fan is operating. To minimize automatic fan operation, use adequate sized cookware and use high heat only when necessary.

d’, —In the event of a grease fire, smother B flaming pan on surface unit by

covering pan completely with well- fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray.

—Clean the vent hood often. Do not allow grease to buildup on the hood or the filter.

—Use care when cleaning the vent hood filter. Corrosive cleaning agents, such as lye-based oven cleaners, may damage the filter.

—When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan off. The fan, if operating, may spread the flame.
