MICROWAVE OVEN SAFETY Your safety and the safety of others are very important. We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages. This is the safety alert symbol. This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others. All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word “DANGER” or “WARNING.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS ■ Do not store the microwave oven outdoors. Do not use this product near water - for example, near a kitchen sink, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, and the like. ■ See door surface cleaning instructions in the “Oven Care” section. ■ To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity: – Do not overcook food. Carefully attend the microwave oven if paper, plastic, or other combustible materials are placed inside the oven to facilitate cooking.
Electrical Requirements The microwave oven is connected to a 110-volt side of the 240volt circuit required for the lower oven. If the incoming voltage to the microwave oven is less than 110 volts cooking times may be longer. Have a qualified electrician check your electrical system. PARTS AND FEATURES This manual covers different models. The oven you have purchased may have some or all of the parts and features listed. The location and appearance of the features shown here may not match your model.
Grids ■ Grids will become hot. Always use oven mitts or pot holders when handling. ■ Never allow the grids to touch the inside cavity walls, ceiling or floor. ■ Always use the turntable. ■ Never use another metal object with the grids. ■ Two level cooking is not recommended. ■ See “Assistance or Service” section to reorder. Broiling Grid (long legs) The broiling grid places food close to the broil element, making it ideal for fast browning of small amounts of food. Use for Broiling only.

MICROWAVE OVEN USE A magnetron in the oven produces microwaves which reflect off the metal floor, walls and ceiling and pass through the turntable and appropriate cookware to the food. Microwaves are attracted to and absorbed by fat, sugar and water molecules in the food, causing them to move, producing friction and heat which cooks the food. ■ Never lean on or allow children to swing on the oven door. ■ Do not operate microwave oven when it is empty.
