PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE
EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE
MICROWAVE ENERGY
(a) Do not attempt to operate this oven
with the door open since this can result
in harmful exposure to microwave
energy.It is important not to
break or
tamper with the safety interlocks.
(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.
SAFETY
1. The oven must be on a leveled surface.
2. The turntable and turntable roller rest
must be in the oven during cooking.
Place the cookware gently on the
turntable and handle it carefully to avoid
possible breakage.
3. Incorrect use of browning dish may
cause the turntable to break.
4. Use only the specified bag size when
using Direct Access Popcorn.
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.
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.
7. Do not cook bacon directly on the
turntable. Excessive local heating of the
turntable may cause the turntable to
break.
8. Do not heat baby bottles or baby food
in the microwave oven. Uneven
heating may occur and could cause
physical injury.
9. Do not heat narrow-necked containers,
such as syrup bottles.

microwave oven as it is impossible to be
sure all contents of the jar have reached
boiling temperature.
12. Do not use this microwave oven for
commercial purpose. This microwave
oven is made for household use only.
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 halfway
through cooking time. Let stand in the
oven for a short time and stir again before
removing the container.
14. Please do notice the food in the microwave
oven to avoid burning due to excessive
cooking when cooking food in it.
15. When the appliance is operated in the
combination mode, children should only
use the oven under adult supervision
due to the temperatures generated.

CAUTION
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an elec-
trical 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 having a grounding
wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into
an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the ground-
ing 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 has a 3-pronged grounding plug,
and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the
appliance.
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 cord is provided to
reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled
in or tripping over a longer cord.
3. If a long cord sets or extension cord is used: 1)The
marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension
cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating
of the appliance. 2)The extension cord must be a
grounding-type 3-wire cord, and 3)The longer cord
should be arranged so that it will not drape over the
counter top or tabletop where it can be pulled on by
children or tripped over unintentionally.
See next page for further instructions “Materials you
can use in microwave oven or to be avoided in micro-
wave 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.
Utensil 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.
