IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
WARNING : To prevent fire, burns, electric shock and other warnings:
Listed below are, as with all appliances, certain rules to follow and safeguards to assure high
performance from this oven:
11. Do not use the oven for any reason other than food
preparation, such as for drying clothes, paper, or any
other nonfood items or for sterilizing purposes.
12. Do not use the oven when empty, this could damage
the oven.
13. Do not use the oven cavity for any type of storage,
such as papers, cookbook, cookware, etc.
14. Do not operate the oven without the glass tray in place.
Be sure it is properly sitting on the rotating base.
15. Make sure you remove caps or lids prior to cooking
when you cook food sealed in bottles.
16. Do not put foreign material between the oven surface
and door. It could result in excessive leakage of
microwave energy.
17. Do not use recycled paper products for cooking. They
may contain impurities which could cause sparks
and/or fires when used during cooking.
18. Do not pop popcorn unless popped in a microwave
approved popcorn popper or unless it's commercially
packaged and recommended especially for microwave
ovens. Microwave popped corn produces a lower yield
than conventional popping; there will be a number of
unpopped kernels. Do not use oil unless specified by
the manufacturer.
19. Do not cook any food surrounded by a membrane,
such as egg yolks, potatoes, chicken livers, etc.,
without first piercing them several times with a fork.
10. Do not pop popcorn longer than the manufacturer's
directions. (popping time is generally below 3 minutes).
Longer cooking does not yield more popped corn, it
can cause scorchings and fire.
Also, the cooking tray can become too hot to handle or
may break.
11. If smoke is observed, switch off or unplug the
appliance and keep the door closed in order to stifle
any flames.
12. When heating food in plastic or paper containers, keep
an eye on the oven due to the possibility of ignition.
13. The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars
shall be stirred or shaken and the temperature
checked before consumption, in order to avoid burns.
14. Always test the temperature of food or drink which has
been heated in a microwave oven before you give it to
somebody, especially to children or elderly people.
This is important because things which have been
heated in a microwave oven carry on getting hotter
even though the microwave oven cooking has
stopped.
15. Eggs in their shell and whole hard-boiled eggs should
not be heated in microwave ovens since they may
explode, even after microwave heating has ended;
16. Keep the waveguide cover clean at all times. Wipe the
oven interior with a soft damp cloth after each use. If
you leave grease or fat anywhere in the cavity it may
overheat, smoke or even catch fire when next using
the oven.
17. Never heat oil or fat for deep frying as you cannot
control the temperature and doing so may lead to
overheating and fire.
18. Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea are able to be
overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing
to be boiling due to surface tension of the liquid. Visible
bubbling or boiling when the container is removed from
the microwave oven is not always present. THIS
COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS
SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN A SPOON OR
OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.
To reduce the risk of injury to persons:
a) Do not overheat the liquid.
b) Stir the liquid both before and halfway through
heating it
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.
e) Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other
utensil into the container.
19. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do
not play with the appliance.
20. This appliance is not intended for use by a
person(including children)with reduced
physical,sensory or mental capabilities,or lack of
experience and knowledge,unless they have been
given supervision or instruction concerning use of the
appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
