Read and follow the specific “Precautions to Avoid Possible Exposure To Excessive Microwave
Energy” section in this manual.
To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
■Do not over-cook food. Carefully attend
appliance if paper, plastic or other
combustible materials are placed inside
the oven to facilitate cooking.
■Remove wire twist-ties from paper or
plastic containers before placing bags
in oven.
■Do not use your microwave oven to dry
newspapers.
■Do not pop popcorn in your microwave
oven unless in a special microwave
popcorn accessory or unless you use
popcorn labeled for use in microwave
ovens.
■Do not over-cook potatoes. They could
dehydrate and catch fire, causing damage
to your oven.
■Do not operate the oven while empty to
avoid damage to the oven and the danger
of fire. If by accident the oven should run
empty a minute or two, no harm is done.
However, try to avoid operating the oven
empty at any time—it saves energy and
prolongs the life of the oven.
■Do not use the oven for storage purposes.
Do not leave paper products, cooking
utensils or food in the oven when not
in use.
■If materials inside the oven should ignite,
keep oven door closed, turn oven off,
and shut off power at the fuse or circuit
breaker panel. If the door is opened, the
fire may spread.
■This microwave oven is not approved or
tested for marine use.
■Some products such as whole eggs and
sealed containers—for example, closed
jars—will explode and should not be
heated in this microwave oven. Such use of
the microwave oven could result in injury.
■Do not operate the microwave oven
without the turntable and support in place.
■Avoid heating baby food in glass jars, even
with the lid off. Make sure all infant food is
thoroughly cooked. Stir food to distribute
the heat evenly. Be careful to prevent
scalding when warming formula or breast
milk. The container may feel cooler than
the milk really is. Always test the milk
before feeding the baby.
■Do not boil eggs in a microwave oven.
Pressure will build up inside the egg
yolk and will cause it to burst, possibly
resulting in injury.
■Foods with unbroken outer “skin” such as
potatoes, sausages, tomatoes, apples,
chicken livers and other giblets, and egg
yolks should be pierced to allow steam to
escape during cooking.
■Don’t defrost frozen beverages in narrow-
necked bottles (especially carbonated
beverages). Even if the container is
opened, pressure can build up. This can
cause the container to burst, possibly
resulting in injury.
■Hot foods and steam can cause burns.
Be careful when opening any containers
of hot food, including popcorn bags,
cooking pouches and boxes. To prevent
possible injury, direct steam away from
hands and face.
■As with any appliance, close supervision is
necessary when used by children.
