IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
SPECIAL NOTES ABOUT MICROWAVING
Arcing is the microwave
term for sparks in the
oven. Arcing is caused by:
•Metal or foil touching
the side of the oven.
•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.
If you see arcing, press
the CLEAR/OFF pad and
correct the problem.
ARCING
•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.
•Some products such as
whole eggs and sealed
containers—for example,
closed jars—are able to
explode and should not
be heated in this
microwave oven. Such use
of the microwave oven
could result in injury.
•Do not boil eggs in a
microwave oven. Pressure
will build up inside egg
yolk and will cause it to
burst, possibly resulting
in injury.
•Operating the microwave
with no food inside for
more than a minute or
two may cause damage
to the oven and could
start a fire. It increases
the heat around the
magnetron and can
shorten the life of
the oven.
•Foods with unbroken
outer “skin” such as
potatoes, hot dogs,
sausages, tomatoes,
apples, chicken livers
and other giblets, and
egg yolks should be
pierced to allow steam
to escape during
cooking.
FOODS

SAFETY FACT
SUPERHEATED WATER
Liquids, such as water,
coffee or tea, are able to
be overheated beyond
the boiling point without
appearing to be boiling.
Visible bubbling or boiling
when the container is
removed from the microwave
oven is not always present.
THIS COULD RESULT
IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS
SUDDENLY BOILING OVER
WHEN THE CONTAINER IS
DISTURBED OR A SPOON
OR OTHER UTENSIL IS
INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.
To reduce the risk of injury
to persons:
— Do not overheat the
liquid.
— Stir the liquid both
before and halfway
through heating it.
— Do not use straight-sided
containers with narrow
necks.
— After heating, allow
the container to stand
in the microwave oven
for a short time before
removing the container.
— Use extreme care when
inserting a spoon or
other utensil into the
container.
•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.
•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.
•Do not overcook
potatoes. They could
dehydrate and catch
fire, causing damage
to your oven.
•Cook meat and poultry
thoroughly—meat to
at least an INTERNAL
temperature of 160°F
and poultry to at least an
INTERNAL temperature
of 180°F. Cooking to
these temperatures
usually protects against
foodborne illness.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
SPECIAL NOTES ABOUT MICROWAVING
Make sure all cookware
used in your microwave
oven is suitable for
microwaving. Most glass
casseroles, cooking dishes,
measuring cups, custard
cups, pottery or china
dinnerware which does not
have metallic trim or glaze
with a metallic sheen can
be used. Some cookware
is labeled “suitable for
microwaving.”
•If you are not sure if
a dish is microwave-safe,
use this test: Place in the
oven both the dish you
are testing and a glass
measuring cup filled with
1 cup of water—set the
measuring cup either
in or next to the dish.
Microwave 30–45 seconds
at high. If the dish heats,
it should not be used for
microwaving.
If the dish remains cool
and only the water in the
cup heats, then the dish
is microwave-safe.
•If you use a meat ther-
mometer while cooking,
make sure it is safe for
use in microwave ovens.
•Do not use recycled
paper products. Recycled
paper towels, napkins
and waxed paper can
contain metal flecks
which may cause arcing
or ignite. Paper products
containing nylon or
nylon filaments should
be avoided, as they may
also ignite.
•Some styrofoam trays
(like those that meat is
packaged on) have a thin
strip of metal embedded
in the bottom. When
microwaved, the metal can
burn the floor of the oven
or ignite a paper towel.
•Do not use the microwave
to dry newspapers.
•Not all plastic wrap is
suitable for use in
microwave ovens.
Check the package
for proper use.
•Paper towels, waxed
paper and plastic wrap
can be used to cover
dishes in order to retain
moisture and prevent
spattering. Be sure to
vent plastic wrap so steam
can escape.
•Cookware may become
hot because of heat
transferred from the
heated food. Pot holders
may be needed to handle
the cookware.
•“Boilable” cooking
pouches and tightly
closed plastic bags should
be slit, pierced or vented
as directed by package.
If they are not, plastic
could burst during or
immediately after
cooking, possibly resulting
in injury. Also, plastic
storage containers should
be at least partially
uncovered because they
form a tight seal. When
cooking with containers
tightly covered with
plastic wrap, remove
covering carefully and
direct steam away from
hands and face.

How to test for a microwave-
safe dish.

•Use foil only as directed in
this manual. TV dinners
may be microwaved in foil
trays less than 3/4″high;
remove the top foil cover
and return the tray to the
box. When using foil in
the microwave oven, keep
the foil at least 1″away
from the sides of the oven.
•Plastic cookware—Plastic
cookware designed for
microwave cooking is very
useful, but should be used
carefully. Even microwave-
safe plastic may not be as
tolerant of overcooking
conditions as are glass or
ceramic materials and
may soften or char if
subjected to short periods
of overcooking. In longer
exposures to overcooking,
the food and cookware
could ignite.
Follow these guidelines:
1Use microwave-safe
plastics only and use
them in strict compliance
with the cookware
manufacturer’s
recommendations.
2Do not microwave empty
containers.
3Do not permit children
to use plastic cookware
without complete
supervision.
The fan will operate
automatically under
certain conditions (see
Automatic Fan feature).
Take care to prevent the
starting and spreading of
accidental cooking fires
while the vent fan is in use.
•Clean the underside of
the microwave often.
Do not allow grease
to build up on the
microwave or the
fan filters.
•In the event of a grease
fire on the surface units
below the microwave
oven, smother a flaming
pan on the surface unit
by covering the pan
completely with a lid, a
cookie sheet or a flat tray.
•Use care when cleaning
the vent fan filters.
Corrosive cleaning
agents, such as lye-based
oven cleaners, may
damage the filters.
•When preparing
flaming foods under the
microwave, turn the vent
fan on.
•Never leave surface units
beneath your microwave
oven unattended at high
heat settings. Boilovers
cause smoking and
greasy spillovers that may
ignite and spread if the
microwave vent fan is
operating. To minimize
automatic fan operation,
use adequate sized
cookware and use high
heat on surface units
only when necessary.

technician if the grounding
instructions are not
completely understood,
or if doubt exists as to
whether the appliance is
properly grounded.
If the outlet is a standard
2-prong wall outlet, it is
your personal responsibility
and obligation to have it
replaced with a properly
grounded 3-prong wall
outlet.
Do not, under any
circumstances, cut or
remove the third (ground)
prong from the power cord.
Do not use an adapter plug
with this appliance.
Do not use an extension
cord with this appliance.
If the power cord is too
short, have a qualified
electrician or service
technician install an outlet
near the appliance.
For best operation, plug
this appliance into its own
electrical outlet to prevent
flickering of lights, blowing
of fuse or tripping of circuit
breaker.
