open since open-door operation can result in  
harmful exposure to microwave energy. It is  
important not to defeat or tamper with the  
safety interlocks.  
(c) Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. It is  
particularly important that the oven door close  
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.  
(b) Do not place any object between the oven front  
face and the door or allow soil or cleaner residue  
to accumulate on sealing surfaces.  
(d) The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by  
anyone except properly qualified service personnel.

Electrical Requirements  
The microwave oven is connected to a 110-volt side of the 240-  
volt circuit required for the lower oven. If the incoming voltage to  
the microwave oven is less than 110 volts cooking times may be  
longer. Have a qualified electrician check your electrical system.  
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS  
I For all cord connected appliances:  
The microwave oven 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. The microwave oven 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 plug 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 microwave oven is properly grounded.  
Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord  
is too short, have a qualified electrician or serviceman  
install an outlet near the microwave oven.  
I For a permanently connected appliance:  
This appliance must be connected to a grounded,  
metallic, permanent wiring system, or an equipment  
grounding conductor should be run with the circuit  
conductors and connected to the equipment  
grounding terminal or lead on the appliance.

Tones  
BEFORE USING  
Tones are audible signals indicating the following:  
A magnetron in the oven produces microwaves which reflect off  
the metal floor, walls and ceiling and pass through the turntable  
and appropriate cookware to the food. Microwaves are attracted  
to and absorbed by fat, sugar and water molecules in the food,  
causing them to move, producing friction and heat which cooks  
the food.

MATERIAL  
RECOMMENDATIONS  
Cooking Guidelines  
Melamine  
Follow manufacturers recommendations.  
Covering  
Paper Towels,  
Dinnerware,  
Napkins  
Use non-recycled and those approved by  
the manufacturer for microwave oven use.  
Covering food helps retain moisture, shorten cook time and  
reduce spattering. Use the lid supplied with cookware. If lid is not  
available, wax paper, paper towels or plastic wrap approved for  
microwaves may be used. Plastic wrap should be turned back at  
one corner to provide an opening to vent steam.  
Plastic Wraps,  
Bags, Covers,  
Dinnerware,  
Containers  
Use those approved by the manufacturer  
for microwave oven use.  
Stirring and Turning  
Stirring and turning redistributes heat evenly to avoid  
overcooking the outer edges of food. Stir from outside to center.  
If possible, turn food over from bottom to top.  
Pottery and Clay  
Follow manufacturers recommendations.  
Do not use in oven.  
Styrofoam®  
Arranging  
If heating irregularly shaped or different sized foods, the thinner  
parts and smaller sizes should be arranged toward the center. If  
cooking several items of the same size and shape, place them in  
a ring pattern, leaving the center of the ring empty.  
Straw, Wicker,  
Wooden  
Containers  
Do not use in oven.  
Wax Paper  
Acceptable for use.  
Piercing  
Before heating, use a fork or small knife to pierce or prick foods  
that have a skin or membrane, such as potatoes, egg yolks,  
chicken livers, hot dogs, and sausage. Prick in several places to  
allow steam to vent.  
To Test Cookware or Dinnerware for Microwave Use:  
1. Put cookware or dinnerware in oven with 1 cup (250 mL) of  
water beside it.  
2. Cook at 100% cooking power for 1 minute.  
Shielding  
Do not use cookware or dinnerware if it becomes hot and the  
water stays cool.  
Use small, flat pieces of aluminum foil to shield the thin pieces of  
irregularly shaped foods, bones and foods such as chicken  
wings, leg tips and fish tail. See Aluminum Foil and Metalfirst.  
Aluminum Foil and Metal  
Standing Time  
Food will continue to cook by the natural conduction of heat even  
after the microwave cycle ends. The length of standing time  
depends on the volume and density of the food.  
Always use oven mitts or pot holders when removing dishes from  
the microwave oven.  
Aluminum foil and some metal can be used in the oven. If not  
used properly, arcing (a blue flash of light) can occur and cause  
damage to the oven.  
Cookware and Dinnerware  
Cookware and dinnerware must fit on the turntable. Always use  
oven mitts or pot holders when handling because any dish may  
become hot from heat transferred from the food. Do not use  
cookware and dinnerware with gold or silver trim. Use the  
following chart as a guide, then test before using.  
OK for Use  
Racks and bakeware supplied with the oven, aluminum foil for  
shielding, and approved meat thermometers may be used with  
the following guidelines:  
I
Never allow aluminum foil or metal to touch the inside cavity  
walls, ceiling or floor.
