To Reduce the Risk of Injury to Persons
DANGER:Electric Shock Hazard!
Touching some of the internal components can cause
serious personal injury or death. Do not disassemble this
appliance.
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.
CAUTION: Personal Injury Hazard!
It is hazardous for anyone other than a competent person to
carry out any service or repair operation that involves the
removal of a cover which gives
protection against exposure to microwave energy.
Grounding Installation
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.
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.
If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire
extension cord:
1. The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension
cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of
the appliance.
2. The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.
3. A short power-supply cord is preferred to reduce the risks
resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over.
4. If a long cord set or extension cord is used, the long cord
should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter
top or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or
tripped over unintentionally.

1. Clean the cavity of the oven after using with a slightly
damp cloth.
2. Clean the accessories in the usual way in soapy water.
3. The door frame and seal and neighbouring parts must be
cleaned carefully with a damp cloth when they are dirty.
4. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal
scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can
scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the
glass.
5. Cleaning Tip---For easier cleaning of the cavity walls that
the food cooked can touch: Place half a lemon in a bowl,
add 300ml (1/2 pint) water and heat on 100% microwave
power for 10 minutes. Wipe the oven clean using a soft, dry
cloth.
