12. Do not use this product near water, for
example, near a kitchen sink, in a wet
basement, near a swimming pool, or
similar locations.
DANGER - Electric Shock Hazard
Touching some of the internal compo-
nents can cause serious personal injury or
death. Do not disassemble this appliance.
d. After heating, allow the container
to stand in the microwave oven for
at least 20 seconds before remov-
ing the container.
INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of burns,
electric shock, fire, injury to persons, or
exposure to excessive microwave energy:
13. Do not immerse cord or plug in water.
14. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
WARNING - 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.
e. Use extreme care when inserting
a spoon or other utensil into the
container. This may also cause
delayed eruptive boiling.
15. Do not let cord hang over edge of
table or counter.
When using electrical appliances basic
safety precautions should be followed
including the following:
16. When cleaning surfaces of door and
oven that comes together on closing
the door, use only mild, nonabrasive
soaps, or detergents applied with a
sponge or soft cloth.

17. To reduce the risk of fire in the oven
interior:
MICROWAVE ENERGY,” page 3.
a) Do not overcook food. Carefully
attend appliance when paper, plastic,
or other combustible materials are
placed inside the oven to facilitate
cooking.
3. This appliance must be grounded.
Connect only to properly grounded
outlet. See “GROUNDING
PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID
POSSIBLE EXPOSURE
TO EXCESSIVE
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 with a grounding
wire and grounding plug. The plug must
be plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded.
INSTRUCTIONS” found on page 3.
4. Install or locate this appliance only in
accordance with the provided
installation instructions, pages 7-8.
b) Remove wire twist-ties from paper
or plastic bags before placing bag in
oven.
MICROWAVE ENERGY
5. 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.
1. Do not attempt to operate this oven
with the door open as this can result
in harmful exposure to microwave
energy. It is important not to break or
tamper with the safety interlocks.
c) If materials inside the oven ignite,
keep oven door closed, turn oven off,
and disconnect the power cord, or
shut off power at the fuse or circuit
breaker panel.
6. Use this appliance only for its intend-
ed use as described in this manual.
Do not use corrosive chemicals or
vapors in this appliance. This oven is
specifically designed to heat or cook
food. It is not designed for industrial
or laboratory use.
Consult a qualified electrician or service-
man 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 exten-
sion cord that has a 3-pronged grounding
plug, and a 3-slot receptacle that will
accept the plug on the appliance.
2. 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) Do not use the cavity for storage
purposes. Do not leave paper
products, cooking utensils or food in
the cavity when not in use.
3. 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
door (for example, make sure
that it is not bent); hinges and latches
(for example, make sure that
18. Liquids such as water, coffee, or tea
can be overheated beyond the boiling
point without appearing to be boiling.

7. As with any appliance, close supervi-
sion is necessary when it is used by
children.
1. A short power-supply cord is provid-
ed to reduce the risks resulting from
becoming entangled in or tripping
over a longer cord.
8. Do not operate this appliance if it has
a damaged cord or plug, if it is not
working properly or if it has been
damaged or dropped.

2. Longer cord sets or an extension
cord should not be used unless the
following precautions are followed
(see 3, below).
DISTURBED OR A UTENSIL IS
INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.
9. This appliance should be serviced
only by qualified service technicians.
Contact 1-800-726-0190.
4. The oven should not be adjusted or
repaired by anyone except properly
qualified service personnel.
19. To reduce the risk of injury to persons:
a. Do not overheat the liquid.
3. If a long cord or extension cord is used:
10. Do not cover or block any openings
on the appliance.
If the microwave unit is not kept clean, its
surface could be degraded and lead to a
hazardous situation.

rating of the appliance.
13. To prevent delayed eruptive boiling of
hot liquids and beverages or scalding
yourself, stir liquid before placing the
container in the oven and again half-
way through cooking time. Let it
stand in the oven for a short time and
stir again before removing the con-
tainer.
IMPORTANT
CONTAINERS
CAUTION: Personal Injury Hazard
Tightly-closed containers could explode.
Closed containers should be opened and
plastic pouches should be pierced before
cooking.
SAFEGUARDS
• The extension cord must be a
grounding-type 3-wire cord.
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock,
injury to persons or exposure to
excessive microwave oven energy when
using your appliance, follow basic
precautions, including the following:
• The longer cord should be arranged
so that it will not drape over the
countertop or tabletop where it can
be pulled on by children or tripped
over.
See the charts on pages 6 and 7 of mate-
rials you can use in microwave oven or to
avoid using in your microwave oven. There
may be certain non-metallic materials
that are not safe to use for microwaving.
If in doubt, you can test the material/con-
tainer in question following the procedure
below.
14. Failure to maintain the oven in a clean
condition could lead to deterioration
that could adversely affect the life of
the appliance and possibly result in a
hazardous situation.
1. The oven must be placed on a level
surface.
CONTENTS
2. The glass turntable and turntable
assembly must be in the oven during
cooking. Handle the glass turntable
carefully and place cookware on it
gently to avoid possible breakage.

16. When cleaning door and oven surfac-
es use only mild, nonabrasive soaps
or detergents applied with a sponge
or soft cloth.
3. Incorrect use of browning dish may
cause the turntable to break. See
“Materials you can use in a micro-
wave oven,” page 6.
1. Fill a microwave-safe container with 1
cup of cold water (250ml) along with
the material or container in question.
2. Cook on maximum power for 1 minute.
17. Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea
can heat beyond the boiling point
without appearing to be boiling. This
is called delayed eruptive boiling.
When the container is removed from
the oven, there is a danger that very
hot liquids could suddenly boiling over
when the container is disturbed or a
spoon or other utensil is inserted into
the liquid.
4. Use only the correctly specified bag
size when using the preset popcorn
program.
3. Carefully feel the material or contain-
er. If it is warm, do not use it for
microwave cooking.
5. The oven has several built-in safety
switches to ensure that the power
remains off when the door is open.
Do not tamper with these switches.
4. Do not exceed 1 minute cooking time.
SETTING UP YOUR OVEN
6. Do not operate the microwave oven
empty. Operating the oven with no
food or food that is extremely low in
moisture can cause fire, charring or
sparking.
Parts and Accessories
Remove the oven and all contents from
the carton and oven interior.
