IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Do not store this appliance outdoors.
Do not use this product near water -
for example, near a kitchen sink, in
a wet basement, near a swimming
pool, or similar location.
Do not immerse cord or plug in water
or any other liquid.
Oversized food or oversized metal
utensils should not be inserted in
a microwave/toaster oven as they may
create a fire or risk of electric shock.
Some products such as whole eggs
and sealed containers, for example,
closed glass jars are able to explode
and should not be heated in this oven.
Liquids, such as water, coee, or
tea are able to overheat beyond
the boiling point without
appearing to be boiling. Visible
bubbling or boiling when the
container is removed from the
microwave oven is not always
present.
THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY
HOT LIQUID SUDDENLY
BOILING
OVER WHEN THE CONTAINER IS
DISTURBED OR A UTENSIL IS
INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.
To reduce the risk of injury to
persons:
1. Do not overheat the liquid.
2.Stir the liquid both before and
halfway through heating it.
3. Do not use straight-sided con-
tainers with narrow necks.
4. After heating, allow the
container to stand in the
microwave oven for a short time
before removing the container.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces
the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This appliance is
equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged
into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
WARNING - Improper use of the grounding can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified
electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt
exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded. If it is necessary to use an extension cord,
use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounded plug, and 3-slot receptacle that will
accept the plug on the appliance. The marked rating of the extension cord shall be equal to or
greater than the electrical rating of the appliance.
Electric Shock Hazard:
Touching some of the internal components can cause serious personal
injury or death. Do not disassemble this appliance.
Electric Shock Hazard:
Improper use of the grounding can result in electric shock. Do not plug
into an outlet until appliance is properly installed and grounded.
1. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting
from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
2. Longer cord sets or extension cords are available and may be used
if care is exercised in their use.
3. If a long cord or extension cord is used:
(1). The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord
should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
(2). The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.
(3). The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape
over the counter top or tabletop where it can be pulled on by
children or tripped over unintentionally.
