SAFEGUARDS
1. The oven must be placed on a level
surface.
2. The glass turntable and turntable
assembly must be in the oven dur-
ing cooking. Handle the glass turn-
table carefully and place cookware
on it gently to avoid possible break-
age.
3. Incorrect use of a browning dish
may cause the turntable to break,
see page 6.
4. Use only the specified bag size
when using the preset popcorn
program.
5. The oven has several built-in safety
switches to ensure that the power
remains off when the door is open.
Do not tamper with these switches.
6. Do not operate the microwave oven
empty. Operating the oven with no
food or food that is extremely low
in moisture can cause fire, charring

of the turntable may cause the
turntable to break.

food in the microwave oven.
Uneven heating/hotspots may
occur and could cause injury.
9. Do not heat narrow-necked con-
tainers, such as syrup bottles.
10. Do not attempt to deep-fry in your
microwave oven.

this microwave oven, as it is impos-
sible to be sure all contents of the
jar have reached boiling tempera-
ture.
12. Do not use this microwave oven for
commercial purposes. This micro-
wave oven is made for household
use only.
13. Failure to maintain the oven in a
clean condition could lead to deteri-

bly result in a hazardous situation.
