Important Safety Instructions
(continued)
General Use
1. DO NOT tamper with, or make any adjustments
or repairs to, the door, control panel frame, safety
interlock switches or any other part of the oven.
DO NOT remove outer panel from oven. Repairs
should only be done by qualified service
personnel.
2. DO NOT use the microwave function when the
oven is empty. The microwave energy will reflect
continuously throughout the oven causing
overheating, if no food or water is present to
absorb energy.
3. DO NOT use this oven to heat chemicals or other
non-food products.
4. DO NOT dry clothes, newspapers or other
materials in the oven. They may catch on fire.
5. DO NOT use recycled paper products unless the
paper product is labelled as safe for microwave
oven use. Recycled paper products may contain
impurities which may cause sparks and/or fires
when used.
6.
DO NOT use newspapers or paper bags for cooking.
7. DO NOT hit or strike the control panel. Damage
to the controls may occur.
8. DO NOT store flammable materials next to, on
top of, or in the oven. These could be fire
hazards.
9. POT HOLDERS may be needed when handling
dishes. Heat is transferred from the hot food to
the cooking container and from the cooking
container to the Ceramic Tray. Ceramic Tray can
be very hot after removing cooking container
from oven.
10. Before using the BAKE, COMBINATION or
BROIL functions for the first time, wash the
interior with a soapy cloth, then operate the
oven without food, on BAKE, for 20 minutes at
230°C (450°F). This will allow the oil that is
used for rust protection to be burned off.
11.
Door and exterior will get hot during BAKE,
COMBINATION and BROIL. Handle door with care.
12. Use extreme caution when removing oven
accessories, cooking containers from oven, or
disposing of food by products such as hot grease.
Examine Your Oven
Unpack the oven, remove all packing material, and
examine the oven for any damage such as dents,
broken door latches or cracks in the door. Notify
dealer immediately if oven is damaged.
DO NOT install if the oven is damaged.
Placement of Your Oven
1. The oven must be placed on a flat, stable
surface.
Place the front surface of the door three inches
or more from the counter top edge to avoid
accidental tipping of the microwave during normal
use.
For proper operation, the oven must have
sufficient air flow. Allow 7.5 cm (3") of space on
both sides of the oven and 15 cm (6") of space
on top of the oven.
a. DO NOT block air vents. If they are blocked
during operation, the oven may overheat. If
the oven overheats, a thermal safety device
will turn the oven off. The oven will remain
inoperable until it has cooled.
b. DO NOT place the oven near a hot, damp
surface such as a gas or electric range, or
dishwasher.
c. DO NOT operate the oven when room
humidity is too high.
2. This oven was manufactured for household use
only. It is not approved or tested for mobile
vehicle, marine, or commercial use.
3. This oven may be built into a wall cabinet, if
desired, by using the proper trim kit, which may
be purchased from a local dealer.
Follow all installation instructions packed with kit.
(Trim Kit Model No. see page 17)
CAUTION:
In the built-in application, air from the top of
the trim kit's exhaust duct is very hot. Heat
transfer may damage or change the color of
the kitchen cabinet. Place the oven at least
30 cm away from the kitchen cabinet.
Grounding Instructions
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. 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.
WARNING Improper use of the grounding plug
can result in a risk of electric shock.
Consult a qualified electrician or service person if the
grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if it is uncertain whether the appliance
is properly grounded or not.
If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a
three-wire extension cord that has a three prong
polarized grounding plug, and a three-slot receptacle
that will accept the plug on the appliance. The
marked rating of the extension cord should be equal
to, or greater than, the electrical rating of the
appliance.
Fan Motor Operation
After using the oven the fan motor rotates to cool the
electric components. This is perfectly normal, and
you can take the food out of the oven while the fan
operates.
