IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
■
When using the Bake, Roast or Fast Bake functions,
both the outside and inside of the oven will become
hot. Always use hot pads to remove containers of food
and accessories such as the oven shelf.
■
Thermometer—Do not use regular cooking or oven
thermometers when cooking by microwave or using
the Fast Bake mode. The metal and mercury in these
thermometers could cause arcing and possible damage
to the oven. Do not use a thermometer in food you are
microwaving unless the thermometer is designed or
recommended for use in the microwave oven.
■
Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can burn
off the pad and touch electrical parts involving risk of
electric shock.
■
Do not store any materials, other than our
recommended accessories, in this oven when not in use.
■
Do not store this appliance outdoors. Do not use this
product near water—for example, in a wet basement,
near a swimming pool, near a sink or in similar locations.
■
Keep power cord away from heated surfaces.
■
Do not immerse power cord or plug in water.
■
Do not mount this appliance over a sink.
■
See door surface cleaning instructions in the Care and
cleaning of the microwave oven section of this manual.
■
This appliance must only be serviced by qualified service
personnel. Contact nearest authorized service facility for
examination, repair or adjustment.
■
As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary
when used by children.
■
Do not store anything directly on top of the microwave
oven surface when the microwave oven is in operation.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
ARCING
If you see arcing, press the CLEAR/OFF button and correct the problem.
Arcing is the microwave term for sparks in the oven.
Arcing is caused by:
■
The metal shelf not installed correctly so it
touches the microwave wall.
■
Metal or foil touching the side of the oven.
■
Turntable ring support not installed correctly.
■
Foil not molded to food (upturned edges act
like antennas).
■
Metal, such as twist-ties, poultry pins, or gold-
rimmed dishes, in the microwave.
■
Recycled paper towels containing small metal
pieces being used in the microwave.
