IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Save these instructions for future reference
To reduce the risk of fire in the microwave oven
cavity, take the following precautions:
Do not overcook food. Carefully attend to the
appliance when paper, plastic or other combus-
tible materials are placed inside the microwave
oven to facilitate cooking.
Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic
bags before placing bags in the microwave
oven.
If materials inside the microwave 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.
Do not use microwave oven cavity for storage
purposes.
Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils,
or food in the cavity when not in use.
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 a spoon or other utensil is inserted
into the liquid.
CAUTION
To reduce the risk of injury to persons from
boiling liquids:
Do not overheat the liquid.
Stir the liquid both before and halfway through
heating it.
Do not use straight-sided containers with
narrow necks. Use wide-mouthed containers.
After heating, allow the container to stand in the
microwave oven at least 20 seconds before
removing.
Use extreme care when inserting spoons or
other utensils into the container.
If the microwave oven light fails, consult an
authorized servicer.
