GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. This oven is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. It must
be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installe d and grounded. In the event of an electrical short circ uit, groun-
ding reduces risk of electric shock by pro viding an escape wire for the electric current. It is reco mmended that a separate
circuit serving only the oven be provided. Using a high voltage is dangerous and may result in a fir e or other accident cau-
sing oven damage.
WARNING Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.
Note:
1. If you have a ny questions about the grounding or elec trical instructions, consult a qualified electrician or service per-
son.

MICROWAVE COOKING PRINCIPLES
1. Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards outside of dish.
2. Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of ti me indicated and add more as needed. Food severely overcoo-
ked can smoke or ignite.
3. Cover foods while cooking. Covers prevent spattering and help foods to cook evenly.
4. Turn foods over once during microwaving to speed cooking of such foods as chicken and hamburgers. Large items like
roasts must be turned over at least once.
Rearrange foods such as meatballs half way through cooking both from top to botto m and from the center of the dish to the
outside.
BEFORE YOU CALL FOR SERVICE
If the oven fails to operate:
1. Check to ensure that the oven is plugged in securely. If it is not, remove the plug from the outlet, wait 10 seconds, and
plug it in again securely.
2. Check for a blown circuit fuse or a tripp ed main circuit breaker. If these seem to be operating properly, test the outlet
with another appliance.
3. Check to ensure that the control panel is programmed correctly and the timer is set.
Check to ensure that the door is securely closed enga ging the door safety lock sy stem. Otherwise, the microwave energy
will not flow into the oven
IF NONE OF THE ABOVE RECTIFIES THE SITUATION, THEN CONTACT A QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN. DO NOT TRY TO
ADJUST OR REPAIR THE OVEN YOURSELF.
UTENSILS GUIDE
1. The ideal material for a microw ave utensil is transparent to microw ave, it allows energy to pass through the container
and heat the food.
2. Microwave cannot penetrate metal, so metal utensils or dishes with metallic trim should not be used.
3. Do not use recycled paper products when microwave cooking, as they may contain small metal fragments which may
cause sparks and/or fires.
4. Round /oval dishes rather than square/oblong ones are recommend, as food in corners tends to overcook.
5. Narrow strips of aluminum foil may be used to prevent overcooking of ex posed areas. But be c areful don’t use to o
much and keep a distance of 1 inch (2.54cm) between foil and cavity
The list below is a general guide to help you select the correct utensils.
