IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Recognize this symbol as a SAFETY message
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1. READ all instructions before using equipment.
2. READ AND FOLLOW the specific
“PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE
EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE
ENERGY” on page 4.
3. This equipment MUST BE EARTHED. Connect
only to properly EARTHED outlet. See
“EARTHING INSTRUCTIONS” on page 5.
4. Install or locate this equipment ONLY in
accordance with the installation instructions in
this manual.
5. Some products such as whole eggs and sealed
containers – for example, closed glass jars – may
explode and SHOULD NOT be HEATED in this
oven.
6. Use this equipment ONLY for its intended use as
described in this manual. Do not use corrosive
chemicals or vapors in this equipment. This type
of oven is specifically designed to heat or cook. It
is not designed for industrial or laboratory use.
7. As with any equipment, CLOSE SUPERVISION
is necessary when used by CHILDREN.
8. DO NOT operate this equipment if it has a
damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly,
or if it has been damaged or dropped.
9. This equipment, including power cord, must be
serviced ONLY by qualified service personnel.
Special tools are required to service equipment.
Contact nearest authorized service facility for
examination, repair, or adjustment.
10. DO NOT cover or block filter or other openings
on equipment.
11. DO NOT store this equipment outdoors. DO NOT
use this product near water – for example, near a
kitchen sink, in a wet basement, or near a
swimming pool, and the like.
12. DO NOT immerse cord or plug in water.
13. Keep cord AWAY from HEATED surfaces.
14. DO NOT let cord hang over edge of table or
counter.
15. See door cleaning instructions in “Care and
Cleaning” section of manual on page 15.
16. For commercial use only.
When using electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should be followed to reduce the risk of burns, electrical
shock, fire, or injury to persons.
Warning
a. DO NOT overcook food. Carefully attend
equipment if paper, plastic, or other combustible
materials are placed inside the oven to facilitate
cooking.
b. Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags
before placing bag in oven.
c. KEEP oven DOOR CLOSED, turn oven off, and
disconnect the power cord, or shut off power at
the fuse or circuit breaker panel, if materials
inside the oven should ignite. Fire may spread
if door is opened.
d. DO NOT use the cavity for storage. DO NOT
leave paper products, cooking utensils, or food in
To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
Caution

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1. Briskly stir or pour liquids before heating with
microwave energy to prevent spontaneous
boiling or eruption. Do not overheat. If air is not
mixed into a liquid, liquid can erupt in oven or
after removal from oven.
2. Do not deep fat fry in oven. Fat could overheat
and be hazardous to handle.
3. Do not cook or reheat eggs in shell or with an
unbroken yolk using microwave energy.
Pressure may build up and erupt. Pierce yolk
with fork or knife before cooking.
4. Pierce skin of potatoes, tomatoes, and similar
foods before cooking with microwave energy.
When skin is pierced, steam escapes evenly.
5. Do not operate equipment without load or food
in oven cavity.
6. Use only popcorn in packages designed and
labeled for microwave use. Popping time varies
depending on oven wattage. Do not continue to
heat after popping has stopped. Popcorn will
scorch or burn. Do not leave oven unattended.
7. Do not use regular cooking thermometers in
oven. Most cooking thermometers contain
mercury and may cause an electrical arc,
malfunction, or damage to oven.
8. Do not heat baby bottles in oven.
9. Do not use metal utensils in oven.
10. Never use paper, plastic, or other combustible
materials that are not intended for cooking.
11. When cooking with paper, plastic, or other
combustible materials, follow manufacturer's
recommendations on product use.
12. Do not use paper towels which contain nylonor
other synthetic fibers. Heated synthetics could
melt and cause paper to ignite.
13. Do not heat sealed containers or plastic bags
in oven. Food or liquid could expand quickly and
cause container or bag to break. Pierce or open
container or bag before heating.
14. To avoid pacemaker malfunction, consult
physician or pacemaker manufacture about
effects of microwave energy on pacemaker.
To avoid personal injury or property damage, observe the following:
Caution
PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE
TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY
a. DO NOT attempt to operate this oven with the
door open since open-door operation can result in
harmful exposure to microwave energy. It is
important not to defeat or tamper with the safety
interlocks.
b. DO NOT place any object between the oven front
face and the door or allow soil or cleaner
residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.
c. DO NOT operate the oven if it is damaged. It
is particularly important that the oven door close
properly and that there is no damage to the: (1) door
(bent), (2) hinges and latches (broken or loosened),
(3) door seals and sealing surfaces.
d. The oven should NOT be adjusted or repaired
by anyone except properly qualified service
personnel.

External Equipotential Earthing Terminal
Equipment has secondary earthing terminal. Terminal
provides external earthing connection used in addition
to earthing prong on plug. Located on outside of oven
back, terminal is marked with symbol shown below.
Unpacking Equipment
• Inspect equipment for damage such as dents in door
or dents inside oven cavity.
• Report any dents or breakage to source of purchase
immediately. Do not attempt to use oven if damaged.
• Remove all materials from oven interior.
• If oven has been stored in extremely cold area, wait a
few hours before connecting power.
Equipment Placement
• Allow at least 7 inches/17.8 centemeters of clearance
around top and sides of equipment. Proper air flow
around equipment cools electrical components. With
restricted air flow, oven may not operate properly and
life of electrical parts is reduced.
• Allow at least 29/16 inches/6.5 centimeters between air
discharge on back of equipment and back wall.
• Do not install equipment next to or above source of
heat, such as pizza oven or deep fat fryer. This could
cause microwave oven to operate improperly and
could shorten life of electrical parts.
• Do not block or obstruct oven filter.
• Allow access for cleaning.
Radio Interference
Microwave operation may cause interference to radio,
television, or similar equipment. Reduce or eliminate
interference by doing the following:
• Clean door and sealing surfaces of oven according to
instructions in “Care and Cleaning” section.
• Place radio, television, etc. as far as possible
from oven.
• Use a properly installed antenna on radio, television,
etc. to obtain stronger signal reception.
InstallationEarthing Instructions
This equipment MUST be earthed. In the event of an
electrical short circuit, earthing reduces the risk of
electric shock by providing an escape wire for the
electric current. This oven is equipped with a cord
having a earthing wire with a earthing plug. The plug
must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed
and earthed.
Consult a qualified electrician or servicer if earthing
instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt
exists as to whether the equipment is properly earthed.
Do not use an extension cord. If the product power cord
is too short, have a qualified electrician install a three-
slot receptacle. This oven should be plugged into a
separate 50 hertz circuit with the electrical rating as
shown in the appropriate drawing. Model requires a 230
supply voltage. When a microwave oven is on a circuit
with other equipment, an increase in cooking times may
be required and fuses can be blown.
To avoid the risk of electrical shock or death, do not
alter the plug.
Warning
To avoid the risk of electrical shock or death, this
equipment must be earthed.
Warning
230V–20AMP
