Safety Instructions
READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
Precautions to be taken when using
Microwave Ovens for Heating
foodstuffs
INSPECTION FOR DAMAGE. A microwave
oven should only be used if an inspection
confirms all of the following conditions:
1. The door fits squarely and securely and
opens and closes smoothly.
2. The door hinges are in good condition.
3. The metal plates of a metal seal on the door
are neither buckled nor deformed.
4. The door seals are neither covered with
food nor have large burn marks.
PRECAUTIONS. Microwave radiation from
microwave ovens can cause harmful effects if
the following precautions are not taken:
1. Never tamper with or deactivate the
interlocking devices on the door.
2. Never poke an object, particularly a metal
object, through a grille or between the door
and the oven while the oven is operating.
3. Never place saucepans, unopened cans or
other heavy metal objects in the oven.
4. Do not let other metallic articles, e.g., fast
food foil containers, touch the side of the
oven.
5. Clean the oven cavity, the door and the
seals with water and a mild detergent at
regular intervals. Never use any form of
abrasive cleaner that may scratch or scour
surfaces around the door.
6. Always use the oven with trays or cookware
recommended by the manufacturer.
7. Never operate the oven without a load (i.e.,
an absorbing material such as food or
water) in the oven cavity unless specifically
allowed in the manufacturer’s literature.
8. For horizontally hinged doors, never rest
heavy objects such as food containers on
the door while it is open.
9. Do not place sealed containers in
microwave ovens. Baby bottles fitted with a
screw cap or a teat are considered to be
sealed containers.
10. This appliance is not intended for use by
persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or
lack of experience and knowledge, unless
they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliance
by a person responsible for their safety.
11. Young children should be supervised to
ensure that they do not play with the
appliance.
