Arcing is the microwave term that is defined as "Sparks in the Oven."
Arcing is caused:
•If metal, such as twist-ties, poultry pins or gold-rimmed dishes
are being used in the microwave when microwave oven is in use.
•If recycled paper towels containing small metal pieces being
used in the microwave.
• If foil paper is in the oven while oven is in use.
•Cooking times given in the cooking guide are approximate. Factors that may
affect cooking are starting temperature, altitude, volume, size and shape of food
and container used. As you become familiar with the oven, you will be able to
adjust for these factors.
• Do not boil eggs in their shell. Pressure may build up and the eggs will explode.
•Potatoes, apples, egg yolks and whole acorn squash are examples of
food with "NONPOROUS SKINS." These must be pierced before cooking to
prevent bursting.
•Popcorn must be popped in a microwave corn popper. Microwave popped
corn produces a lower yield than conventional popping. Do not use oven for
popcorn unless popped in a microwave approved popcorn container or unless
it’s commercially packaged and recommended for microwave ovens. Do not use
oil unless specified by the manufacturer.
• Do not attempt to deep fry in your oven.
• DO NOT heat liquids in your microwave oven without first stirring.

Unpacking Microwave Oven
1) Unpack the oven, remove all packing material, and examine the oven
for any damage such as dents, broken door latches or cracks in the
door. Notify the dealer immediately if the unit is damaged. Do Not
install if the unit is damaged.
2) Inspect and remove any remains of packing, tape or printed materials
before powering on the microwave oven.
Placement Of Microwave Oven
• The oven must be placed on a flat, stable surface.
•The oven may possibly cause reception interference on
radios and/or televisions.
•In order to eliminate or minimize interference to radios and televisions
from this microwave oven, the oven should be plugged into a separate
electrical socket. In addition, the oven should be physically as far away
from the radio or television as possible.
Proper Air Circulation
•For proper operation, the oven must have sufficient air-flow.
The following are recommended clearances around the oven:
Sides…………………….2" (50mm)
Top………………………1" (25mm)
Back……………………..1" (25mm)
Electrical Requirement
•Make sure there is a suitable power outlet (115-Volt, 15 Amps Outlet)
with proper grounding to power the microwave oven.
• Avoid the use of three plug adapters or cutting off the third grounding
prong in order to accommodate a two-plug outlet. This is a dangerous
practice since it provides no effective grounding for the microwave and
may result in shock hazard.
•The electrical power cord must be kept dry and must not be pinched and
or crushed in any way.

Grounding Instructions
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 grounded plug. The plug must be inserted into an outlet that is
properly installed and grounded.
• Improper use of the plug can result in a risk of electric shock.
•Consult a qualified electrician or service person if the grounding
instructions are not completely understood or if doubt exists as to
whether the appliance is properly grounded.
Wiring Requirements:
•The oven must be plugged into at least 15 AMP 115-120 VOLT, 60 HZ
GROUNDED OUTLET.
Note: Where a standard two-prong
outlet is encountered, it is the
personal responsibility and
obligation of the consumer to
have it replaced with a properly
grounded three-prong outlet.
• The oven must be on a SEPARATE CIRCUIT. No other appliance should
share the circuit with the microwave oven. If circuit is shared with other
appliances then it may trip.
Extension Cords:
We do not recommend that you use an extension cord.

Defrosting The Food
The defrost setting on your microwave oven enables easy and convenient thawing of
frozen foods. The microwave energy heats the outer surface of the food and this
heat is moved slowly to the center. This thaws the food evenly throughout.
In addition to defrosting, this defrosting setting can also be used for slower and
gentler cooking. Soups stews, and some sauces can be cooked "Defrost" to blend
flavors and tenderize meat. Foods with a high-milk, cheese or egg content may be
cooked on the DEFROST setting to prevent curdling or toughness.
How to use the Defrost Setting:
1. Place food in the microwave oven and close the door.
2. Place the power select control at the DEFROST position.
3. Set the TIMER for the times suggested in the cooking
guide or as desired.
