IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

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

WARNING - To reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, injury to persons, or exposure to excessive microwave energy:

1 Read all instructions before using the appliance.
2 Read and follow "PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY" on page 2.
3 This appliance must be grounded. Connect only to properly grounded outlet. See "GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS" on page 4.
4 Install or locate this appliance only in accordance with the provided installation instructions.
5 Some products such as whole eggs and sealed containers —for example, closed glass jars— may explode and should not be heated in this oven.
6 Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in this manual. 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.
7 HOT CONTENTS CAN CAUSE SEVERE BURNS. DO NOT ALLOW CHILDREN TO USE THE MICROWAVE OVEN. Use caution when removing hot items.
8 To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
a Do not overcook food.
b Carefully attend appliance when paper, plastic, or other combustible materials are placed inside the oven to facilitate cooking.
c Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before placing bag in the oven.
d If materials inside the oven should ignite, keep oven door closed, turn oven off, and disconnect the power cord or shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.
e Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils, or food in the cavity when not in use.

9 Liquids such as water, coffee, or tea are able to be overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing to be boiling due to surface tension of the liquid. 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 A SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID. To reduce the risk of injury to person:

a Do not overheat the liquid.
b Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating.
c Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.
d After heating, allow the container to stand in the microwave oven for a short time before removing the container.
e Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil into the container.

10 Do not heat oil or fat for deep-frying. It is difficult to control the temperature of oil in the microwave oven.

11 Pierce foods with heavy skins such as potatoes, whole squash, apples, and chestnuts before cooking.

12 The contents of feeding bottles and baby jars should be stirred or shaken, and the temperature should be checked before serving in order to avoid burns.

13 Cooking utensils may become hot because of heat transferred from the heated food. Potholders may be needed to handle the utensils.

14 Do not cover or block any openings on the appliance.

15 Do not store or use this appliance outdoors. Do not use this product near water, for example, near a kitchen sink, in a wet basement, near a swimming pool, or similar locations.

16 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.

17 Do not immerse cord or plug in water. Keep cord away from heated surfaces. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.

18 Use only thermometers, which are specifically designed for use in microwave ovens.

19 Do not operate any heating or cooking appliance beneath this appliance.

20 Be certain the glass tray and roller rings are in place when you operate the oven.

21 This appliance should be serviced only by qualified service personnel. Contact nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair, or adjustment.

22 When cleaning surfaces of door and oven that come together when closed, use only mild, nonabrasive soaps or detergents. Apply with a sponge or soft cloth.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

1 Make sure that all the packing materials are removed from the inside of the door.
2 Check the oven for any damage such as misaligned or bent door, damaged door seals and sealing surfaces, broken or loose door hinges and latches, and dents inside the cavity or on the door. If there is any damage, do not operate the oven but contact qualified service personnel.
3 This microwave oven must be placed on a flat, stable surface to hold its weight and the heaviest food likely to be cooked in the oven.
4 Do not place the oven where heat, moisture, or high humidity are generated, or near combustible materials.

5 For correct operation, the oven must have sufficient airflow. Allow 20in of space above the oven, 10in at the back and 5in at both sides. Do not cover or block any openings on the appliance. Do not remove feet on which oven stands.
6 Do not operate the oven without glass tray, roller support, and shaft in their proper positions.
7 Make sure that the power supply cord is undamaged and does not run under the oven or over any hot or sharp surface.
8 The socket must be readily accessible so that it can be easily unplugged in an emergency.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

WARNING: Improper use of the grounding plug can result in risk of electric shock.

Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is too short have a qualified electrician or service person install an outlet near the appliance.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

The electrical requirements are a 120 volt, 60 Hz, AC only, 15 amp. It is recommended that a separate circuit, serving only the oven, be provided. The oven is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and grounded.

Power Supply Cord

A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risks of becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

NOTE: If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical instructions, consult a qualified electrician or service person.

Big Chill cannot accept any liability for damage to the oven or personal injury resulting from failure to observe the electrical connection procedures.

Radio or TV Interference

Should there be any interference caused by the microwave oven to your radio or TV, check that the microwave oven is on a different circuit, relocate the radio or TV as far away from the oven as feasible, or check position and signal of receiving antenna.

This section lists which utensils can be used in the microwave, which ones have limited use for short periods, and which ones should not be used in the microwave.

RECOMMENDED

Microwave browning dish

Use to brown the exterior of small items such as steaks, chops, or pancakes. Follow the directions provided with your browning dish.

Microwaveable plastic wrap

Use to retain steam. Leave a small opening for some steam to escape, and avoid placing it directly on the food.

Paper towels and napkins

Use for short-term heating and covering; these absorb excess moisture and prevent spattering. Do not use recycled paper towels, which may contain metal and could ignite.

Glass and glass-ceramic bowls and dishes

Use for heating or cooking.

Paper plates and cups

Use for short-term heating at low temperatures. Do not use recycled paper, which may contain metal and could ignite.

Wax paper

Use as a cover to prevent spattering.

Thermometers

Use only those labeled "Microwave Safe" and follow all directions. Check the food in several places. Conventional thermometers may be used on microwaved food once the food has been removed from the oven.

LIMITED USE

Aluminum foil

Use narrow strips of foil to prevent overcooking of exposed areas. Use with caution, as too much foil can damage your oven. You should keep a distance of 1in. (2.54cm) between aluminum foil and cavity.

Ceramic, porcelain, and stoneware

Use these if they are labeled "Microwave Safe". If they are not labeled, test them to make sure they can be used safely.

Plastic

Use only if labeled "Microwave Safe". Other plastics can melt.

NOT RECOMMENDED

Glass jars and bottles

Regular glass is too thin to be used in a microwave. It can shatter and cause damage and injury.

Paper bags

These are a fire hazard, except for popcorn bags that are designed for microwave use.

Styrofoam plates and cups

These can melt and leave an unhealthy residue on food.

Plastic storage and food containers

Containers such as margarine tubs can melt in the microwave.

Metal utensils

These can damage your oven. Remove all metal before cooking.

NOTE: Should you wish to check if a dish is safe for microwaving, place the empty dish in the oven and microwave on HIGH for 30 seconds. A dish which becomes very hot should not be used.

Your microwave makes cooking easier than conventional cooking, provided you keep these considerations in mind:

STIRRING

Stir foods such as casseroles and vegetables while cooking to distribute heat evenly. Food on the sides of a dish absorbs more energy and heats more quickly, so stir from the outside to the center. The oven will turn off when you open the door to stir your food.

ARRANGEMENT

Arrange unevenly shaped foods, such as chicken pieces or chops, with the thicker, meatier parts toward the outside of the turntable where they receive more microwave energy. To prevent overcooking, place delicate areas, such as asparagus tips, toward the center of the turntable.

SHIELDING

Shield food with narrow strips of aluminum foil to prevent overcooking. Areas that need shielding include poultry wing tips, the ends of poultry legs, and corners of square baking dishes. Use only small amounts of aluminum foil. Larger amounts can damage your oven.

TURNING

Turn foods over midway through cooking to expose all parts to microwave energy. This is especially important with large foods such as roasts.

STANDING

Foods cooked in the microwave build up internal heat and continue to cook for a few minutes after heating stops. Let foods stand to complete cooking, especially foods such as cakes and whole vegetables. Roasts need this time to complete cooking in the center without overcooking the outer areas. All liquids, such as soup or hot chocolate, should be shaken or stirred when cooking is complete. Let liquids stand a moment before serving. When heating baby food, stir well at removal and test the temperature before serving.

ADDING MOISTURE

Microwave energy is attracted to water molecules. Food that is uneven in moisture content should be covered or allowed to stand so that the heat disperses evenly. Add a small amount of water to dry food to help it cook.
