IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, injury to persons,
or exposure to excessive microwave energy:
• Read all instructions before using
the microwave oven.
• Read and follow the specific
"PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID
POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO
EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE
ENERGY" found in this section.
• The microwave oven must be
grounded. Connect only to
properly grounded outlet. See
"GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS"
found in this section and in the
provided Installation Instructions.
• Install or locate the microwave
oven only in accordance with the
provided Installation Instructions.
• Some products such as whole
eggs in the shell and sealed
containers – for example, closed
glass jars – are able to explode
and should not be heated in the
microwave oven.
• Use the microwave oven only for
its intended use as described in
the manual. Do not use corrosive
chemicals or vapors in the
microwave oven. This type of
oven is specifically designed to
heat, cook, or dry food. It is not
designed for industrial or
laboratory use.
• As with any appliance, close
supervision is necessary when
used by children.
• Do not operate the microwave
oven if it has a damaged cord or
plug, if it is not working properly,
or if it has been damaged or
dropped.
• The microwave oven should be
serviced only by qualified service
personnel. Call an authorized
service company for examination,
repair, or adjustment.
• Do not cover or block any
openings on the microwave oven.
• Do not store this microwave oven
outdoors. Do not use the

example, near a kitchen sink, in a
wet basement, near a swimming
pool, or similar locations.

• Keep cord away from heated
surfaces.
• Do not let cord hang over edge of
table or counter.
• See door surface cleaning
instructions in the "Microwave

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• To reduce the risk of fire in the
oven cavity:
- Do not overcook food.
Carefully attend the
microwave oven when paper,
plastic, or other combustible
materials are placed inside the
oven to facilitate cooking.
- Remove wire twist-ties from
paper or plastic bags before
placing bags in oven.
- If materials inside the 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 the cavity for
storage purposes. Do not leave
paper products, cooking
utensils, or food in the cavity
when not in use.
• Do not mount over a sink.
• Do not store anything directly on
top of the microwave oven when
the microwave oven is in
operation.
• Clean Ventilating Hoods
Frequently - Grease should not
be allowed to accumulate on
hood or filter.
• When flambéing foods under the
hood, turn the fan on.
• Suitable for use above both gas
and electric cooking equipment.
• 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.
To reduce the risk of injury to
persons:
- Do not overheat the liquid.
- Stir the liquid both before and
halfway through heating it.
- Do not use straight-sided
containers with narrow necks.
- After heating, allow the
container to stand in the
microwave oven for a short
time before removing the
container.
- Use extreme care when
inserting a spoon or other
utensil into the container.
• Intended to be used above
ranges with maximum width of
36" (91.44 cm).
• Use care when cleaning the vent-
hood filter. Corrosive cleaning
agents, such as lye-based oven
cleaners, may damage the filter.

PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE
EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE
MICROWAVE ENERGY
• Do not attempt to operate this
oven with the door open since
open-door operation can result
in harmful exposure to
microwave energy. It is important
not to defeat or tamper with the
safety interlocks.
• Do not place any object between
the oven front face and the door
or allow soil or cleaner residue to
accumulate on sealing surfaces.
• Do not operate the oven if it is
damaged. It is particularly
important that the oven door
close properly and that there is
no damage to the:
(a) Door (bent),
(b) Hinges and latches (broken
or loosened),
(c) Door seals and sealing
surfaces.
• The oven should not be adjusted
or repaired by anyone except
properly qualified service
personnel.
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
• Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
• Do not remove ground prong.
• Do not use an adapter.
• Do not use an extension cord.
• Failure to following these instructions can result in death, fire, or
electrical shock.
Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
Required:
• A 120 V, 60 Hz, AC only, 15 or 20 A electrical supply with a fuse or circuit
breaker.
Recommended:
• A time-delay fuse or time-delay circuit breaker.
• A separate circuit serving only this microwave oven.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
For all cord connected appliances:
The microwave oven 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. The microwave oven 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 serviceman if the grounding
instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether
the microwave oven is properly grounded.
Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is too short, have a
qualified electrician or serviceman install an outlet near the microwave
oven.

TROUBLESHOOTING
First try the solutions suggested here. If you need further assistance or more
recommendations that may help you avoid a service call, refer to the
warranty page in this manual.
If you experience Recommended Solutions
Microwave oven
will not operate
Check the following:
• Household fuse or circuit breaker: If a household
fuse has blown or a circuit breaker has tripped,
replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. If the
problem continues, call an electrician.
• Magnetron: Try to heat 1 cup (250 mL) of cold
water for 2 minutes at 100% cooking power. If
water does not heat, try the steps in the bullets
below. If microwave oven still does not operate,
call for service.
• Door: Firmly close door. On some models, if a
packaging spacer is attached to inside of the
door, remove it, then firmly close door.
If a message "Food" appears in the display, the
door has been closed for 5 minutes or more
without the microwave oven being started. This
occurs to avoid unintended starting of the
microwave oven. Open and close the door, then
start the cycle.
• Control: Make sure control is set properly. Make
sure Control Lock is OFF. Make sure Demo mode
(on some models) is OFF.
Arcing in the
microwave oven
• Soil buildup: Soil buildup on cavity walls,
microwave inlet cover, cooking rack supports, and
area where the door touches the frame can cause
arcing. See "General Cleaning" in the "Microwave
Oven Care" section.
• Cookware: Use microwave-safe cookware only.
