WARNING
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.
This appliance must be grounded. In
grounding reduces the risk of electric
shock by providing an escape wire
for the electric current. This appliance
is equipped with a cord having grounding
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
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 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.
3) 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.

CLEANING THE EXHAUST FILTERS
The oven ventilation exhaust filters should be removed and cleaned often; generally a t least
once every month.
1) To remove the exhaust ventilation filters, slide the filter to the rear. Then pull filter
downward and push to the other side. The filter will drop out. Repeat for the 2nd filter.
2) Soak the ventilation filters in hot water using a mild detergent. Rinse well and shake to
dry. Do not use ammonia or wash in a dishwasher. The aluminum on the filter will
corrode and darken.
3) To reinstall the exhaust ventilation filter, slide it into the side slot, then push up and
toward oven to lock. Reinstall the second filter using the same procedure.
Disconnect the power cord before cleaning or
leave the door open to deactivate the oven during cleaning.
To avoid risk of personal injury or property damage,
do not operate oven hood without filters properly in place.

CLEANING SUGGESTIONS
For best performance and for safety reasons, keep the oven clean inside and outside. Take special
care to keep the inner door panel and oven door frame free of food and grease build-up.
Never use rough scouring powder or pads on the microwave. Wipe the microwave oven inside
and out with a soft cloth and and warm (not hot) mild detergent solution. Then rinse and wipe
completely dry.
Wipe spatters immediately with a wet paper towel, especially after cooking greasy foods
like chicken or bacon. Clean your microwave oven weekly or more often, if needed.
Follow these instructions to clean and care for your microwave oven:
•Keep the inside (cavity) of the oven clean. Food particles and spilled liquids can stick to the
oven walls, causing the oven to work less efficiently.
•Wipe up spills immediately. Use a damp, clean cloth and mild soap. DO NOT use harsh
detergents or abrasive cleaners.
•To help loosen baked-on food particles or liquids, heat 2 cups of water in a 4 cup glass
measuring cup on High power for 5 minutes or until boiling. Let stand in oven cavity for 1 to
2 minutes. (Tip: add lemon juice to keep the oven smelling fresh)
•Remove the glass turntable tray from the oven when cleaning the oven cavity or tray. To
prevent the glass turntable from breaking, handle with care and do not put it in water
immediately after cooking. Wash the turntable tray in warm sudsy water or in the
dishwasher.
•Clean the outside surface of the microwave with soap and a clean damp cloth. Dry with
a clean soft cloth. To prevent damage to the operating parts of the oven, do not let water
seep into any vents or openings.
•Wash the oven door window with very mild soap and water. Be sure to use a soft clean
cloth to avoid scratching.
•If steam accumulates inside or outside the oven door, wipe with a soft cloth. Steam can
accumulate when operating the oven in high humidity and in no way indicates
microwave leakage.
•Never operate the oven without food in the oven cavity; this can damage the magnetron tube
or glass tray. You may wish to leave a cup of standing water inside the oven when it is not
in use to prevent damage if the oven is accidentally turned on.
