15.Either.

a)When cleaning surfaces of door and oven that comes together on closing the door, use only mild, non-abrasive soaps or detergents applied with a sponge or soft cloth., or

b)When separate cleaning instructions are provided See door surface cleaning instructions on page 17.

16.To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:

a)Do not overcook food. Carefully attend appliance when paper, plastic, or other combustible materials are placed inside the oven to facilitate cooking.

b)Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before placing bag in oven.

c)If materials inside the oven ignite, keep oven door closed, turn oven off, and disconnect the power cord, or shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.

d)Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils, or food in the cavity when not in use.

17.Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea are able to be overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing to be boiling due to surface tension of the liquid. Visible bubbling or boiling when the container is removed from the microwave oven is not always present. THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN A SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.

To reduce the risk of injury to persons:

Wipe the oven interior with a soft damp cloth after each use. If you leave grease or fat anywhere in the cavity it may overheat, smoke or even catch fire when next using the oven.

20.Never heat oil or fat for deep frying as you cannot control the temperature and doing so may lead to overheating and fire.

21.Do not operate the oven without the glass tray in place. Be sure it is properly sitting on the rotating base.

Additionally, the series includes pre-programmed settings for various foods, enabling rapid cooking with just the press of a button.

Another notable technology in these models is the multi-stage cooking feature. This functionality allows users to program multiple cooking steps into a single cycle, making it possible to execute complex recipes seamlessly. For instance, a dish can be set to microwave, then grill, and finally keep warm, all without manual intervention between stages.

Moreover, the R-309 series models come equipped with an easy-to-clean interior, designed to resist stains and odors. This practical design aids in maintaining hygiene and ensures that the microwave remains in good condition over time. Safety features such as child lock options also enhance usability, making these models suitable for families.
