UTENSILS REMARKS
Danger
03 04
Electric Shock Hazard: Touching some of
the internal components can cause
serious personal injury or death. Do not
disassemble this appliance.
Aluminum Foil
This appliance must be grounded. In
the event of an electrical short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of electric
shock by providing an escape wire for
the 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 properly installed and
grounded.
Shielding only. Small smooth pieces can be used to cover thin parts of meat or
poultry to prevent overcooking. Arcing can occur if foil is too close to oven walls.
The foil should be at least 1 inch (2.5cm) away from oven walls.
Browning Dish Follow manufacturer’s instructions. The bottom of browning dish must be at least
3/16 inch (5mm) above the turntable. Incorrect usage may cause the turntable to
break.
Dinnerware Microwave-safe only. Follow manufacturer's instructions. Do not use cracked or
chipped dishes.
Glass Jars Always remove lid. Use only to heat food until just warm. Most glass jars are not
heat resistant and may break.
Glassware Heat-resistant oven glassware only. Make sure there is no metallic trim. Do not use
cracked or chipped dishes.
Oven Cooking Bags Follow manufacturer’s instructions. Do not close with metal tie. Make slits to allow
steam to escape.
Paper Plates & Cups Use for short–term cooking/warming only. Do not leave oven unattended while
cooking.
Paper Towels Use for covering food while reheating and absorbing fat. Use with supervision for a
short-term cooking only.
Parchment Paper Use as a cover to prevent splattering or a wrap for steaming.
Plastic Microwave safe only. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Should be labeled
"Microwave Safe". Some plastic containers soften, as the food inside gets hot.
"Boiling bags" and tightly closed plastic bags should be slit, pierced or vented as
directed by package.
Plastic Wrap Microwave safe only. Use to cover food during cooking to retain moisture. Do not
allow plastic wrap to touch food.
Thermometers Microwave safe only (meat and candy thermometers).
Wax Paper Use as a cover to prevent splattering and retain moisture.
Warning
Electric Shock Hazard: Improper use of
the grounding can result in electric
shock. Do not plug into an outlet until
appliance is properly installed and
grounded.
Consult a qualied electrician or serviceman if the grounding
instructions are not completely understood or if doubt exists as
to whether the appliance is properly grounded. If it is necessary
to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord.
It is hazardous for anyone other than a compentent person
to carry out any service or repair operation that involves the
removal of a cover which gives protection against exposure
to microwave energy.
