PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID
POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO
EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE
ENERGY
Do not attempt to operate this oven
with the door open since open-door
operation can result in harmful
exposure to microwave energy. It is
important not to damage or tamper
with the safety interlocks.
Do not place any object between the
oven front and the door or allow soil
or cleaner residue to accumulate on
sealing surfaces.
Do not operate the oven if it is
damaged. It is particularly important
that the oven door closes properly
and that there is no damage to the:
(1) door (bent), (2) hinges and
latches (broken or loosened),
(3) door seals and sealing surfaces.
The oven should not be adjusted or
repaired by anyone except properly
qualified service personnel.

room. Due to the high temperatures
radiated, objects left near the oven
