GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding plug reduces the
risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for electric current. This appliance is equipped with a
cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is
porperly installed and grounded.
WARNING: Improper use of the grounding can in a risk of electric 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, and either:
(1) If it is necessary to use an extension cord, sue only a 3-wire extension cord that has
a 3-blade grounding plug, and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the
appliance. The marked rating of the extension cord shall be equal to or greater than
the electrical rating of the appliance, or
(2) Do not use an extension cord, if the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified
electrician or serviceman install an outlet near the appliance.
FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION
RADIO FREQUENCY INTERENCE STATEMENT
(U.S.A ONLY)
WARNING:
This equipment generates and uses ISM frequency energy and if not installed and used properly,
that is in strict accordance with the manufacturer's instructions, may cause interference to radio and
television reception.
It has been type-tested and found to comply with limits for an ISM equipment pursuant to part 18 of
FCC rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a
residential installation.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined
by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try correct the interference by one or
more of the followings.
• Reorient the receiving antenna of radio or television.
• Relocate the microwave oven with respect to the receiver.
• Move the microwave oven away from the receiver.
• Plug the microwave oven into a different outlet so that microwave oven and receiver are on
different branch circuits.
THE MANUFACTURER is not responsible for any radio or TV interference caused by
UNAUTHORIZED MODIFICATION to this microwave oven. It is the reponsibility of the user to
correct such interfercnce.

4
Examine the oven after unpacking.
check fork damage such as a misaligned door, broken door or dent in the cavity.
If any damage is visible, DO NOT INSTALL, and notify your dealer immediately.
Level, flat location.
Install the microwave oven on a level, flat surface.
Ventilation
Do not block air vents. If they are blocked during operation, the oven may overheat and eventually
cause a failure. For proper ventilation, allow 3 inches of space between oven top, sides, rear and
adjacent surfaces.
Away from radio and TV sets
Poor television reception and radio interference may result if the oven is located close to a TV, radio,
antenna, fee, etc. Place the oven as far from them as possible.
Away from heating appliances and water taps
Keep the oven away from heat, steam or splashing liquids. These things can adversely affect oven
wiring and contacts.
Power supply
This microwave oven requires a power supply of approximately 15 Amperes, 127 Volts, 60 Hz and a
grounded outlet. A short power cord is provided to reduce the risk of the user becoming entangled in
or tripping over a longer cord. Longer cord sets or extension cords are available and may be used if
care is exercised.
If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the cord should be at least as great as the
electrical rating of the oven.
The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord. The longer cord should be arranged so it
does not drape over the table top or counter where children can pull on it or trip over it.
INSTALLATION
When use 3-pronged plug When use grounding adaptor, make
sure the receptacle box is fully
grounded.

MICROWAVE UTENSILS
Glass, Ceramic and China
Ovenproof glass or ceramic baking dishes are the most used microwave utensils.
Many of these items are readily available in most homes : glass measure, custard cups, mixing bowls,
covered casseroles, pie plates and round or square cake dishes. Ovenproof dinner ware is usually safe to
use in the microwave.
Do not heat or cook in glass jars or bottles.
Do not use dishes with silver, gold, platinum or other metal trim. Arcing may occur and /or the dish may
break.
Do not use delicate or stemmed glassware. Although the glass may be transparent to microwave energy,
heat from the food may cause the glassware to crack.
Plastics
Plastic dishes, cups, mugs and bowls may be used in the oven for short periods of time. None of these
should be used in the oven for prolonged periods because distortion and melting may occur.
Check manufacturer's recommendations concerning microwave safety.
Plastic wrap can be used to cover dishes in most recipes if the dish is deep enough to avoid plastic wrap
touching the food. Always vent the wrap by folding back one corner to allow excess steam to escape.
Plastic cooking bags should be slit before cooking so excess steam can escape.
Do not use wire twist ties to close the bag. Wire twist ties can cause arcing which can damage the oven.
Paper
Paper cups, wax paper, napkins, paper towels, and plates may be used for short cooking. Prolonged time
in the oven can cause paper to burn. Do not use recycled paper products, such as brown paper bags.
They contain impurities which may cause arcing and damage the oven.
Metal
Metal utensils should not be used in the oven. Metal reflects microwave energy so foods will not cook so
foods will not cook evenly.
Metal can cause arcing and damage the oven.
UTENSIL TEST Dishes that do not absorb microwave energy are best for microwave
cooking. Lock on the label to verify that particular cups, glasses, plates

CARE OF YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN
Turn the oven off before cleaning.
Keep the inside of the oven clean. When food
spatters or spilled liquids adhere to oven walls,
wipe with a damp cloth. Mild detergent may be
used if the oven gets very dirty. The use of
harsh detergent or abrasives is not
recommended.
The outside oven surface should be cleaned
with soap and water, rinsed and dried with a
soft cloth. To prevent damage to the operating
parts inside the oven, water should not be
allowed to seep into the ventilation openings.
If the Control Panel becomes wet, clean with a
soft, dry cloth. Do not use harsh detergents or
abrasives on Control Panel.
If steam accumulates inside or around the
outside of the oven door, wipe with a soft cloth.
This may occur when the microwave oven is
operated under high humidity conditions and
in no way indicates malfunction of the unit.
It is occasionally necessary to remove the
glass tray for cleaning. Wash the tray in warm
sudsy water or in a dishwasher.

Do not place any object between the oven front frame and the door or allow residue to build up on sealing
surfaces. Wipe with a mild detergent, rinse and dry. Never use abrasive powders or pads.
Do not subject the oven ddor strain or weight such as a child hanging on an open door.

Do not use recycled paper products as they may contain impurities which may cause sparks or fires.
Do not hit or strike the control panel with hard objects. This can damage the oven.
FOOD
Never use your microwave oven for HOME CANNING. The oven is not designed for proper home
canning.
Improperly canned food may spoil and be dangerous to consume.
Always use the minimum recipe cooking time. It is better to undercook rather than over cook foods.
Undercooked foods can be returned to the oven for more cooking. If food is overcooked, nothing can be
done.
Heat small quantities of food or foods with low moisture carefully. These can quicky dry out, burn or catch
on fire.
Do not heat eggs in the shell. Pressure may build up and eggs can explode.
Potatoes, apples, egg yolks and sausages are examples of food with non-porous skins.
These must be pierced before cooking to prevent bursting.
Do not attempt to deep fat fry in your microwave oven.
Always stir liquids before heating. Heated liquids can erupt, if not mixed with air.
