IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions
should be followed, including the following:
WARNING - To reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, and
injury to persons or exposure to excessive microwave energy:
WARNING

• If materials inside the oven ignite, keep oven door closed, turn
oven off, and disconnect the power cord or shut off power at
the fuse or circuit breaker panel.
• Do not use the cavity for storage purpose. Do not leave paper
products, cooking utensils or food inside the cavity when not in
use.
9. Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea can be overheated beyond
the boiling point without appearing to be boiling due to surface
tension of the liquid. Visible bubbling or boiling when the container
is removed from the microwave oven is not always present. THIS
COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING
OVER WHEN A SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO
THE LIQUID.
10. Do not heat oil or fat for deep-frying. It is difficult to control the
temperature of oil in a microwave oven.
11. Foods with heavy skins such as potatoes, whole squash, apples
and chestnuts should be pierced with a fork or the tip of a sharp
knife before cooking.
12. The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars should be
stirred or shaken and the temperature should be checked before
serving in order to avoid burns.
13. Cooking utensils may become hot because of heat transferred
from the heated food. Pot holders may be needed to handle the
utensil.
14. Do not cover or block any openings on the appliance.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
The electrical requirements are a 120 volt 60 Hz, AC only, 15 amp. It is
recommended that a separate circuit serving only the oven be provided. The oven
is equipped with a 3-wire cord having a 3-prong grounding plug. It must be plugged
into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and grounded.
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit,
grounding reduces risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric
current. The cord provided with this appliance is equipped with a grounding wire
and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature by modifying
the plug in any way.
Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if:
1) The grounding instructions are not completely understood.
2) You are unsure that the appliance is properly grounded.
3) You have any questions about the grounding or electrical instructions.
POWER SUPPLY CORD
1. A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk of becoming entangled in
or tripping over a longer cord.
2. If the power supply cord is too short, do not use an extension cord. Have a
qualified electrician or serviceman to install an outlet near the appliance.
3. If it is absolutely necessary to use longer cord sets or an extension cord, extreme
care must be exercised.
a) Use only a grounding type 3-wire extension cord that
has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle
that will accept the plug on the appliance.
b) The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension
cord must equal to or greater than the electrical rating
of the appliance. The longer cord should be arranged
so that it will not drape over the counter top or table
top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over
unintentionally.
NOTE: Neither Haier nor the dealer can accept any liability for damage to the oven
or personal injury resulting from failure to observe the electrical connection
procedures.

button.
SETTING THE POWER LEVEL
Variable power levels add flexibility to
microwave cooking. Each power level
gives you microwave energy a certain
percent of the time, for example, Power
Level 3 is microwave energy 30% of the
time. Power Level 10 will cook faster but
food may need more frequent stirring,
rotating or turning over. A lower setting
will cook more evenly and need less
stirring or rotating of the food. Some
foods may have better flavor, texture or
appearance if one of the lower settings
is used. Use a lower power level when
cooking foods that have a tendency to
boil over, such as scalloped potatoes.
Rest periods (when the microwave
energy cycles off) give time for the
food to transfer heat to the inside of
the food. An example of this is with the
defrost cycle (Power Level 3). If the
microwave energy did not cycle off, the
outside of the food would cook before
the inside was defrosted.
1. Press the Power Level button.
2. Turn the dial to select the power level.
3. Press the Start/+30 sec/Select
button to enter.

is a need to continue cooking, it is
suggested to use the manual controls,
instead of Pre-set Sensor Cooking
• The oven door should not be opened
while the sensor cook is on. Opening
the door may cause inaccurate
cooking results. Once the two beep
signal is heard, the remaining cooking
time immediately appears in the
screen and begins to count-down.
At this time, the oven door may be

CONVECTION
Convection Cooking is a technology
used to cook foods more efficiently.
Convection cooking uses a special
heating element and fan to raise the
temperature of the air inside the
microwave oven, circulating the uniform
heated air throughout the oven. The
air moves over and around the food,
producing golden brown exteriors with
rich, moist interiors. Most foods will
cook faster and better with Convection
Cooking than conventional cooking
methods.
