• All suitable glass or plastic food
containers should be used in strict
compliance with the cookware
manufacturer's recommendations.
• Containers or plates suitable for
use in the microwave oven should
not exceed the width of the glass
turntable as this may impede the
rotation of the turntable and result
in food being unevenly cooked or
may burn and catch on fire.
• Food and/or liquids should not be
heated or cooked directly on the
glass turntable. Food and/or liquids
must be placed into a suitable
microwave-proof container before
placing onto the glass turntable.
• Food and/or liquids should not
be heated or cooked in plastic or
paper containers or bags, unless
specified as suitable for use by the
manufacturer, due to the possibility
of containers exploding or igniting.
• Metal clips or twist ties should be
removed from the packaging as
these could cause sparking and/
or fire.
• Do not use recycled paper or paper
towels when cooking. Recycled
paper may contain small metal or
other impurities which could cause
sparking and/or fire.
BREVILLE RECOMMENDS SAFETY FIRST
SPECIAL SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS FOR YOUR
MICROWAVE OVEN
• Wipe the oven cavity with a soft,
damp cloth after each use. Leaving
food residue, grease or fat in the
cavity could cause the microwave
oven cavity to overheat and may
cause the microwave oven to
smoke or catch fire.
• The microwave oven should be
cleaned regularly and any food
splattering inside the cavity
should be removed. Failure to
maintain the microwave oven
in a clean condition could lead
to deterioration of the surface,
adversely affecting the life of the
microwave oven and possibly
resulting in a hazardous situation.
• The microwave oven is intended
for heating food and beverages.
Drying of food or clothing and
heating or warming pads, slippers,
sponges, damp cloth and similar

been commercially packaged for
microwave use. There may be a
number of un-popped kernels
that may overcook and burn when
popping popcorn. Do not use
oil unless recommended by the
manufacturer. Do not pop popcorn
longer than the manufacturer’s
instructions (popping time should
not exceed 3 minutes). Longer
cooking could cause scorching
or fire.
• Do not cook any food surrounded
by a membrane (such as potatoes,
chicken liver, egg yolks, oysters,
etc) without first piercing the
membrane several times helping to
allow for steam to escape.

boiled eggs should not be cooked
or heated in the microwave oven
as they may explode during
cooking, at the end of cooking or
after removing from the
microwave oven.
• Do not heat oil or fat in the
microwave oven. Doing so may
cause the microwave oven and/or
the oil to overheat and/or ignite.
• If any smoke is observed, switch
off and unplug the microwave oven
at the power outlet. Keep the door
closed to stifle any flames.
• Do not attempt to operate the
microwave oven by any method
other than those described in this

BREVILLE RECOMMENDS SAFETY FIRST
• Loosely wind the cord when
storing the microwave oven.
Do not wrap the cord around
the microwave oven.
• When heating food in plastic or
paper containers, keep an eye on
the microwave oven due to the
possibility of ignition.
• The glass window has been
specially treated to make it
stronger, more durable and safer
than ordinary glass, however it
is not unbreakable. If dropped
or struck hard, it may break or
weaken, and could at a later time
shatter into many small pieces
without apparent cause.
• If you see any sparks, arcing or
flashing within the microwave
oven, press the STOP/CLEAR
button and correct the problem
or contact Breville Consumer
Support for assistance.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
• This appliance is equipped with
a power cord having a grounding
wire with a grounding plug. The
appliance must be grounded using
a 3-hole properly grounded outlet.
In the event of an electrical short
circuit, grounding reduces the risk
of electric shock.
• Improper use of the grounding
plug can result in risk of
electric shock.
• If the power outlet is a standard
2-prong wall outlet, it is your
personal responsibility and
obligation to have it replaced with
a properly grounded 3-prong
wall outlet.
• Do not, under any circumstances,
cut or remove the third (ground)
prong from the power cord or use
an adapter.
• Consult a qualified electrician if
the grounding instructions are not
completely understood, or if doubt
exists as to whether the appliance
is properly grounded.
• We do not recommend using an
extension cord with this appliance.
NOTE
Do not use an adapter plug with
this appliance.
