6 Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in
this manual. Do not use corrosive chemicals or vapors in
this appliance. This type of oven is specifically designed to
heat, cook, or dry food. It is not designed for industrial or
laboratory use.
7 As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary

for examination, repair or adjustment.
10 Do not cover or block any openings on this appliance.
11 Do not store or use this appliance outdoors. Do not use
this product near water, for example, near a kitchen sink,
in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, and the like.
12 Do not immerse cord or plug in water.
13 Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
14 Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.
15 When cleaning surfaces of door and oven that come
together when closing the door, use only mild, non-
abrasive soaps or detergents applied with a sponge or soft
cloth.
16 To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
(a) Do not overcook food. Carefully attend appliance if
paper, plastic, or other combustible materials are
placed inside the oven to facilitate cooking.
(b) Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags
before placing bag in oven.
(c) If materials inside the oven should ignite, keep oven
door closed, turn oven off, and disconnect the power
cord, or shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker
panel.
(d) Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do not
leave paper products, cooking utensils, or food in the
cavity when not in use.
17 Do not use this microwave oven to heat corrosive
chemicals (for example, sulfides and chlorides). Vapors
from such corrosive chemicals may interact with the
contact and springs of the safety interlock switches
thereby rendering them inoperable.
18 Keep the waveguide cover clean at all times. Wipe the
oven interior with a soft damp cloth after each use. If you
leave grease or fat anywhere in the cavity it may lead to
overheating and fire.
19 Never heat oil or fat for deep frying as you cannot control
the temperature and doing so may lead to overheating and
fire.
20 Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea are able to be
overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing to
be boiling due to surface tension of the liquid. Visible
bubbling or boiling when container is removed from the
over is not always present. THIS COULD RESULT IN
VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN
A SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO
THE LIQUID. To reduce the risk of injury to persons:
1. Do not overheat the liquid.
2. Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it.
3. Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.
4. After heating, allow the container to stand in the
microwave oven for a short time before removing the
container.
5. Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil
into the container.
