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.
