18. When cleaning the oven, door, and sealing surfaces, use only mild, nonabrasive soaps
or detergents applied with a sponge or soft cloth.
19. This appliance is for private household use only.
20. In a microwave, liquids such as water, coee, or tea can become overheated beyond
the boiling point without appearing to be boiling. Visible bubbling is not always present
when the container is removed from the microwave oven. THIS COULD RESULT
IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN THE CONTAINER IS
DISTURBED OR A SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.
a. Do not overheat liquids.
b. Stir liquids both before and halfway through heating them.
c. Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.
d. After heating, allow the container to stand in the oven for a short time before
removing it.
e. Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil into a container.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
DANGER
Electrical Shock Hazard
Touching some of the internal components can cause serious personal injury or death.
Do not disassemble this appliance.
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding
reduces the risk of electrical shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.
To protect against electrical shock, this appliance is equipped with a cord having a
3-prong grounding-type plug for insertion into a proper grounding-type electrical outlet.
DO NOT alter the plug for use in a 2-prong outlet. If the plug will not fit into an outlet, have
a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
WARNING
Improper use of the grounding plug can result in electrical shock.
Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not
completely understood or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly
grounded.
1. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks of entanglement or tripping
over a longer cord.
2. Extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use.

9
Do not place the appliance on a
stovetop or any other heatable
surface, even if the stovetop is not
on. Doing so is a fire hazard.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
3. If an extension cord is used:
a. The marked electrical rating of the cord set and/or the marked electrical rating
of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the
appliance.
b. The extension cord must be a 3-wire cord that has a 3-pronged grounding
plug and a 3-slot receptacle to accept the appliance’s plug.
c. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over a
countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped
over unintentionally.
UTENSIL TEST
Certain nonmetallic utensils and containers may not be safe to use in the microwave.
For more details on microwave-safe materials, refer to the chart beginning on p. 14.
If in doubt, you can test the utensil or container with the following procedure:
1. Fill a microwave-safe container with 1 cup of cold water.
2. Place the water container and the empty container/utensil being tested on the glass
turntable and microwave for 1 minute. Do not exceed the 1 minute cooking time.
3. Carefully feel the container or utensil. If the empty container or utensil is warm, do not
use it in the microwave.
