IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

(continued)

18.Superheated Liquids

Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea are able to be overheated beyond the boiling point without showing evidence (or signs) of boiling. Visible bubbling is not always present when the container is removed from the microwave oven. THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN THE CONTAINER IS DISTURBED OR A UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.

To reduce the risk of injury to persons:

(a)STIR THE LIQUID BOTH BEFORE AND HALFWAY THROUGH HEATING IT.

(b)Do not heat water and oil, or fats together. The film of oil will trap steam, and may cause a violent eruption.

(c)DO NOT use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.

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

19.DO NOT cook directly on the turntable. It can crack, and cause injury or damage to the oven.

WARNING

TO AVOID THE RISK OF SHOCK:

DO NOT remove outer panel from oven. Repairs must be done only by a qualified serv- ice person.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF EXPOSURE TO MICROWAVE

ENERGY:

DO NOT tamper with, or make any adjustments or repairs to Door, Control Panel Frame, Safety Interlock Switches, or any other part of oven, microwave leakage may result.

TO AVOID THE RISK OF FIRE:

1. DO NOT operate the oven empty. The microwave energy will reflect continuously throughout the oven causing overheating and damage, if food or water is not present to absorb energy.

2. DO NOT store flammable materials next to, on top of, or in the oven.

3.DO NOT dry clothes, newspapers or other materials in the oven, or use newspaper or paper bags for cooking.

4.DO NOT hit or strike Control Panel. Damage to controls may occur.

5.DO NOT use recycled paper products unless the paper product is labeled as safe for

microwave oven use. Recycled paper products may contain impurities which may cause sparking.

TO AVOID THE RISK OF SCALDING:

POT HOLDERS should always be used when removing items from the oven. Heat is transferred from the HOT food to the cooking container and from the container to the Glass Tray. The Glass Tray can also be very HOT after removing the cooking container from the oven.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

For proper use of your oven, read remaining safety cautions and operating instructions.
