.To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
- Do not overcook food. Carefully attend
appliance if paper, plastic, or other
combustible materials are placed
inside the oven to facilitate cooking.
Paper could char or burn, and some
plastics could melt if used when
heating foods.
- Do not use paper, plastics, or other
combustible materials when operating
the microwave oven as a convection
oven.
- Do not deep fry in oven. Microwavable
utensils are not suitable and it is
difficult to maintain appropriate deep
frying temperatures.
- If materials inside the oven should
ignite, keep oven door closed, turn
oven off, and disconnect the power
cord or shut off power at the fuse or
circuit breaker panel.
- Test dinnerware or cookware
before using. To test a dish for safe
use, put it into the oven with a cup
of water beside it. Cook at 100%
cook power for one minute. If the
dish gets hot and water stays
cool, do not use it. Some dishes
(melamine, some ceramic dinner-
ware, etc.) absorb microwave
energy, becoming too hot to handle
and slowing cooking times. Cooking
in metal containers not designed for
microwave use could damage the
oven, as could containers with
hidden metal (twist-ties, foil lining,
staples, metallic glaze or trim).
- Remove wire twist-ties from paper
or plastic bags before placing bag
in oven.
- Do not use the cavity for storage pur-
poses. Do not leave paper products,
cooking utensils, or food in the cavity
when not in use.
- Do not mount over a sink.
- Do not store anything directly on top
of the appliance when appliance is in
operation.
l Read and follow “Operating safety
precautions” starting on page 7.
1. A short power-supply cord is provided
to reduce the risks resulting from
becoming entangled in or tripping over
a longer cord.
2. Longer cord sets or extension cords
are available and may be used if care
is exercised in their use.
