appliance.

2. Read and follow the specific: "PRECAU-

TIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE 

TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY" 
found on page 1.

3. As with most cooking appliances, close 

supervision is necessary to reduce the risk 

of a fire in the oven cavity.

4. To reduce the risk of fire in the oven 

cavity:

  i) Do not overcook food. Carefully attend 

the appliance when paper, plastic, or 
other combustible materials are placed 
inside the oven to facilitate cooking.

  ii) Remove wire twist-ties and metal 

handles from paper or plastic containers/ 
bags before placing them in the oven.

  iii) If materials inside the oven ignite, 

keep the oven door closed. Turn the  
oven off, and unplug the appliance. 
Disconnect the power cord, shut off 
power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.

  iv) Do not use the oven cavity for storage 

purposes. Do not leave paper products, 
cooking utensils, or food in the cavity 
when not in use.

  v) Never operate an empty microwave 

oven. Arcing or sparking in the oven 
cavity may occur.

5. This oven must be grounded. Connect 

only to properly grounded outlet. See 

"GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS" found on 

page 3.

6. Install or locate this oven only in 

accordance with the installation 
instructions provided.

7. Some products such as whole eggs  

and sealed containers-for example, 
closed glass jars- are able to explode 
and should not be heated in the oven.

8. Use this appliance only for its intended 

uses as described in this manual. Do  
not use corrosive chemicals or vapors  
in this appliance. This oven is  

specifically designed to heat or cook 

 

or dry food. It is not designed for

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

DANGER

DANGER

21. Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea are able to be overheated 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 LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN THE CONTAINER IS 

 

DISTURBED OR A SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.

 

i)  Do not overheat the liquid.

 

ii)  Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it.

 

iii)  Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.

 

iv)   After heating, allow the container to stand in the microwave oven for a short time  

before removing the container.

 

v)  Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil into the container.

Electric Shock Hazard
Touching some of the internal 
components can cause serious 
personal injury or death. Do not 
disassemble this appliance.

Electric Shock Hazard
An improperly grounded appliance 
can result in electric shock. Do
not plug into an outlet until 
appliance is properly installed  
and grounded.

Three-pronged
(grounding) plug

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. To protect against electrical shock,  
this appliance is equipped with a cord having a 3-
prong grounding-type plug for insertion into a proper 
grounding-type receptacle. DO NOT alter the plug
for use in a 2-prong receptacle. DO NOT use a
3-prong adapter to enable the microwave to be 
plugged into a 2-prong receptacle. If the plug will 

not fit into a receptacle, have the proper receptacle 
installed by a qualified electrician.

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  
h as a 3-pronged grounding plug, and a 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.

CAUTION

UTENSILS

Radio interference

Personal injury Hazard 
Tightly-closed utensils 
could explode. Closed
containers should be opened
and plastic pouches should be 
pierced before cooking.

See the instructions on "Materials you can use in 
microwave oven or to be avoided in microwave oven." 
There may be certain non-metallic utensils that are not 
safe to use for microwaving. If in doubt, you can test the 
utensil in question following the procedure below.

Utensils Test:

1. Fill a microwave-safe container with 1 cup of cold 

water (250ml) along with the utensil in question.

2. Cook on maximum power for 1 minute.
3. Carefully feel the utensil. If the empty utensil is  

warm, do not use it for microwave cooking.

4. Do not exceed 1 minute cooking time.

1. Operation of the microwave oven may cause interference to your radio, TV or similar 

equipment.

2. When there is interference, it may be reduced or eliminated by taking the following 

measures:

  i)  Clean door and sealing surface of the oven.
  ii)  Reorient the receiving antenna of radio or television.
  iii) Relocate the microwave oven with respect to the receiver.
  iv) Move the microwave oven away from the receiver.
  v)   Plug the microwave oven into a different outlet so that microwave oven and 

receiver are on different branch circuits.

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 sets or extension cord is used:
  i)   The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension marked electrical rating of 

the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the 
appliance.

  ii)  The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.
  iii)  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 unintentionally.

Maintenance

CLEANING

Wipe the oven inside and outside with a soft cloth and a mild detergent solution. Then rinse and 
wipe dry. This should be done weekly or more often, if needed. Never use cleaning powders or 

rough pads. Excessive oil splatters on the inside top will be difficult to remove if left for many 

days. Wipe splatters with a wet paper towel, especially after cooking chicken or bacon.

REMOVABLE PARTS

The turntable and turntable roller ring are removable. They should be hand-washed in warm (not 
hot) water with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Once they are clean, rinse well and dry with a 
soft cloth. Never use cleaning powders, steel wool, or rough pads.
•  The turntable may be cleaned in the sink. Be careful not to chip or scratch the edges as this may 

cause the turntable to break during use.

•  The turntable roller rest should be cleaned regularly.

SPECIAL CARE

For best performance and safety, the inner door panel and the oven front frame should be free 
of food or grease buildup. Wipe often with a mild detergent; then rinse and wipe dry.
Never use cleaning powders or rough pads.

After cleaning the control panel, touch STOP twice to clear any entries that might have been 
entered accidentally while cleaning the panel.
