IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS

PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY

• Do not attempt to operate this microwave oven with the door open since open-door operation can result in harmful exposure to microwave energy. It is important not to defeat or tamper with the safety interlocks.
• Do not place any object between the microwave oven front face and the door or allow soil or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.
• Do not operate the microwave oven if it is damaged. It is particularly important that the oven door close 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 microwave oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except properly qualified service personnel.

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:

WARNING

• Read and follow the specific PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY.
• This appliance must be properly grounded. See GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS on page 6.
• Install or locate this appliance only in accordance with installation instructions on page 6.
• Some products such as whole eggs and sealed containers (e.g. closed glass jars) are able to explode and should not be heated in this oven.
• Do not operate this appliance if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly or if it has been damaged or dropped.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS

• Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in this guide. 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.
