●It is quite normal for steam to be emitted
around the door, for misting to occur on the
door, or even for water droplets to appear
below the door during the cooking cycle. This is
merely condensation from the heat of the food.
PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE
TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY
(a) Never interfere or tamper with 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 door sealing surfaces. Wipe the door sealing area frequently with
amild detergent, rinse and wipe dry. Never use abrasive powders or pads.
(c) When open, the door must not be subjected to strain; for example, achild hanging on the
opened door or any load on it could cause the oven to fall forward, and the weight could
also damage the door.
(d) Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. It is particularly important that the oven door
closes 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

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions
should be followed, including the following:
WARNING -To reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, injury
to persons or exposure to excessive microwave energy:
1. Read all instructions before using.
2. As with most cooking appliances, close
supervision is necessary to reduce the risk of a
fire in the oven cavity.
If afire should start:
.Keep the oven door closed
●Turn the oven off, and
●Disconnect the power cord or shut off power at
the fuse or circuit breaker panel.
Keep in mind the following rules at all times:
a.
b.
c.
Do not overcook food. Overcooked food can
cause fires in the oven. Carefully attend to the
oven’s activities, especially if paper, plastic, or
other combustibles are inside.
Do not store combustible items such as bread,
cookies, paper products, etc. inside the oven.
They may catch fire if turned on accidentally.
Do not use wire twist-ties in the oven. Be sure
to inspect purchased items for wire twist-ties
and remove before placing food in the oven.
3. Some products such as eggs in the shell, water

happen even after the cooking has stopped.
It is important to keep the door and the oven
interior clean.
