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. Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed
eruptive boiling, therefore care must be taken when
handling the container.
To reduce the risk of injury to persons:
a) Do not overheat the liquid.
b) Stir the liquid before and halfway through heating it.
c) Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.
d) After he 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. This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge,
