GROUNDING

INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded. The Microwave Drawer is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances. In the event of an electrical

short circuit, grounding reduces risk of electric shock by providing an

escape wire for the electric

current.

– Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of

electric shock. Do not use an extension cord. If the

power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or serviceman install an outlet near the appliance.

you may hear the magnetron cycling on and off. It is normal for the exterior of the Microwave Drawer to be warm to the touch when cooking or reheating.

Condensation is a normal part of microwave cooking. Room humidity and the moisture in food will influence the amount of moisture that condenses in the Microwave Drawer. Generally, covered foods will not cause as much condensation as uncovered ones.

The Microwave Drawer is for food preparation only. It should not be used to dry clothes or newspapers.

Your Microwave Drawer is rated 1000 watts by using the IEC Test Procedure. In using recipes or package directions, check food a minute or two before the minimum time and add time accordingly.

ABOUT MICROWAVE COOKING

•Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards outside of dish.

•Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of time indicated and add more as needed. Food severely overcooked can smoke or ignite.

•Cover foods while cooking. Check recipe or cookbook for suggestions: paper towels, wax paper, microwave plastic wrap or a lid. Covers prevent spattering and help foods to cook evenly.

•Shield with small flat pieces of aluminum foil any thin areas of meat or poultry to prevent overcooking before dense, thick areas are cooked thoroughly.

•Stir foods from outside to center of dish once or twice during cooking, if possible.
