press the CANCEL/OFF pad and correct the problem.
Arcing is the microwave term for sparks in the
oven. Arcing is caused by:
[] Metal or foil touching the side of the oven.
[] Foil not molded to food (upturned edges act
like antennas).
[] Use foil only as recommended in this manual.
[] Metal cookware used during either
speedcook or microwave cooking (except for
the pans provided with the oven).
[] Metul, such us twist-ties, poultry pins, or
gold-rimmed dishes, in the oven.

[] Do not use recycled paper products.
Recycled paper towels, napkins and
waxed paper can contain metal flecks
which may cause arcing or ignite. Paper
products containing nylon or nylon
filoments should be avoided, as they may
also ignite.
[] Use foil only as directed in this manual.
When using foil in the oven, keep the foil
at least 1" away from the sides of the
oveR,
[]
[] Do not use the oven to dry newspapers.

microwave ovens.
[] Some foam trays (like those that meat
is packaged on) have a thin strip of
metal embedded in the bottom. When
microwaved, the metul con burn the floor
of the oven or ignite a paper towel.
[] Paper towels, waxed paper and plustic
wrap can be used to cover dishes in
order to retain moisture and prevent
spattering. Be sure to vent plastic wrap
so steam can escape.
[] Not all plastic wrap is suitable for use
in microwave ovens. Check the package
for proper use.
[] "Boilable" cooking pouches and tightly
closed plastic bogs should be slit, pierced
or vented as directed by package. If
they ore not, plastic could burst during
or immediately offer cooking, possibly
resulting in injury. Also, plastic storage
containers should be at least partially
uncovered because they form a tight
seal. When cooking with containers
tightly covered with plastic wrap, remove
covering carefully and direct steam away
from hands and face.
[] Plastic cookware-Plastic cookware
designed for microwave cooking is very
useful, but should be used carefully.
Even microwave-safe plastic may not
be as tolerant of overcooking conditions
as are glass or ceramic materials and
may soften or char if subjected to
short periods of overcooking. In longer
exposures to overcooking, the food and
cookware could ignite.
Follow these guidelines:
1. Use microwave-safe plastics only
and use them in strict compliance
with the cookware manufacturer's
recommendations.
2. Do not microwave empty containers.
3. Do not permit children to use plastic
cookware without complete supervision.

Don't defrost frozen beverages in narrow-
necked bottles (especially carbonated
beverages). Even if the container is open,
pressure can build up. This can cause the
container to burst, possibly resulting in injury.
Foods cooked in liquids (such as pasta)
may tend to boil more rapidly than foods
containing less moisture. Should this
occur, refer to the Care and Cleaning of
the oven section for instructions on how
to clean the inside of the oven.
mHot foods and steam can cause burns. Be
careful when opening any containers of
hot food, including popcorn bags, cooking
pouches and boxes. To prevent possible
injury, direct steam away from hands and
face.
Im Do not overcook potatoes. They could
dehydrate and catch fire, causing damage to
your oven,
m Avoid heating baby food in glass jars, even
with the lid off. Make sure all infant food is
thoroughly cooked. Stir food to distribute the
heat evenly. Be careful to prevent scalding
when warming formula. The container may
feel cooler than the formula really is. Always
test the formula before feeding the baby.

How to Remove Protective Shipping Film and Packaging Tape
Carefully grasp a corner of the protective shipping film
with your fingers and slowly peel it from the appliance
surface. Do not use any sharp items to remove the film.
Remove all of the film before using the appliance for the
first time.
To assure no damage is done to the finish of the
product, the safest way to remove the adhesive from
packaging tape on new appliances is an application of
a household liquid dishwashing detergent, Apply with a
soft cloth and allow to soak.
NOTE: The adhesive must be removed from all parts. It
cannot be removed if it is baked on.
