4 W arning T o reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, injury to persons, or exposure to excessive microwave energy when using your appliance, follow basic pre- cautions, including the following sections. • Read and follow the specific “Precautions to Avoid Possible Exposure to Excessive Microwave Energy.
• To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity: — Do not overcook food. Carefully attend appliance if paper, plastic or other combustible materials are placed inside the oven while cooking. — Remove wire twist-ties and metal handles from paper or plastic containers before placing them in the oven.
6 Arcing is the microwave term for sparks in the oven. Arcing is caused by: • The temperature probe in the microwave but not inserted in the food. • The metal shelf not installed correctly so it touches the microwave wall. • Metal or foil touching the side of the oven.
7 • Spontaneous boiling—Under certain special circumstances, liquids may start to boil during or shortly after removal from the microwave oven. To prevent burns from splashing liquid, we recommend.
8 Make sure all cookware used in your microwave oven is suitable for microwaving. Most glass casseroles, cooking dishes, measuring cups, cus- tard cups, pottery or china dinner- ware which does not have metallic trim or glaze with a metallic sheen can be used.
9 • 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.
10 Important Safety Information This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This appliance is equipped with a power cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug.
