Electric Shock Hazard
This appliance has no user serviceable parts.
Touching some of the internal components can cause
serious personal injury or death. Do not disassemble
this microwave.
Electric Shock Hazard
Improper grounding can result in electric shock, fire, or personal injury. Do not plug this
microwave into an outlet until it's properly installed and grounded.
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding
reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape route for the electric current.
This is equipped with a cord having grounding wire and a 3-pronged
grounding plug, which must not be removed or tampered with in any way. The
microwave must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
Consult a qualified electrician if the grounding instructions are not completely
understandable, or if you have doubts as to whether or not the appliance is properly
grounded. If using an extension cord is necessary, it must have a 3-pronged
grounding plug and a 3-slot outlet that will fit the plug on the . The marked
rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than the electrical rating of
the appliance.
b)
c)
Stir liquids both before and halfway through heating them.
Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.
Before removing the container, allow it to stand in the microwave for a short
time once the cooking time ends.
Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil into the container.
d)
e)
without appearing to be boiling, when a container is removed from the
microwave. Bubbling or boiling liquids are not always visible, resulting in them
suddenly boiling over when the container is disturbed, or a utensil is inserted into
the liquid.
a) Do not overheat liquids.
Do not let the cord hang over the edge of a table or counter.
When cleaning the interior or exterior surfaces use only mild, nonabrasive soaps
or detergents applied with a sponge or soft cloth.

See the instructions listed in "Microwave-safe Materials" on page 6.
There may be certain non-metallic containers that are not safe to use in the microwave.
When in doubt, test the container in question using the procedure below.
Operating the microwave may cause interference to your radio, TV or electronics.
If you experience interference, take the following measures to try and reduce or
eliminate it:
a)
b)
Clean door and sealing surface of the microwave.
Reposition the receiving antenna of the radio or television.
Relocate the microwave with respect to the antenna.
Move the microwave away from the equipment.
Plug the microwave into a different outlet so the microwave
and the electronics are on separate circuits.
Place a microwave-safe container filled with 1 cup of cold water (250ml), along with
the (empty) container in question, inside the microwave.
Cook for 1 minute on maximum power.
Feel the empty container carefully; if it's very warm, do not use it in the microwave
again.
Do not exceed the 1-minute cooking time.
a)
b)
c)
CAUTION
Personal Injury Hazard
Tightly-closed containers may explode. Containers should be opened and plastic
pouches should be pierced before cooking.
CONTAINER USE
A short power cord is provided to reduce the risk of becoming entangled and
tripping over over a longer cord.
Extension cords may be used if they're correctly exercised as instructed below.
If an extension cord is used:
The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be equal to or
greater than the electrical rating of the microwave.
The extension cord must be a 3-pronged grounding cord.
The extension cord should be arranged so that it doesn't drape over the
counter, tabletop, within the reach of children, or can be tripped
over unintentionally.
