Microwave Oven Safety
Your safety and the safety of others are very important.
We have provided important safety messages in this manual and on your
appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages.
This is the safety alert symbol. It is used to alert you to poten-
tial hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.
All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and
either the word “DANGER”, “WARNING” or “CAUTION”. These
words mean:
You can be killed or seriously injured if
you don’t immediately follow instructions.
You can be killed or seriously injured if
you don’t follow instructions.
CAUTION indicates a potentially haz-
ardous situation which, if not avoided,
may result in minor or moderate injury.
All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to
reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions
are not followed.
PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID
POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO
EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY
1. 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.
2. Do not place any object between the oven front face and the door or
allow soil or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.
3. 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:

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
(continued)
16. Some products such as whole eggs with or without shell, narrow neck bottles
and sealed containers — for example, closed glass jars — may explode and
should not be heated in this oven.
17. To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
(a) DO NOT overcook food. Carefully attend appliance when 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) If material inside the oven ignites, keep oven door closed, turn oven
off, and disconnect the power cord, or shut off power at the fuse or
circuit breaker panel.
(d) DO NOT use the cavity for storage purposes. DO NOT leave paper
products, cooking utensils or food in the cavity when not in use.
18.
Superheated Liquids
Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea are able to be overheated beyond the
boiling point without showing evidence (or signs) of boiling. Visible bubbling is
not always present when the container is removed from the microwave oven.
THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER
WHEN THE CONTAINER IS DISTURBED OR A UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO
THE LIQUID.
To reduce the risk of injury to persons:
(a) STIR THE LIQUID BOTH BEFORE AND HALFWAY THROUGH HEATING
IT.
(b) DO NOT heat water and oil, or fats together. The film of oil will trap
steam, and may cause a violent eruption.
(c) DO NOT use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.
(d) After heating, allow the container to stand in the microwave oven for a short
time before removing the container.
19.
DO NOT cook directly on the turntable. It can crack, cause injury or damage to
the oven.
