Some products such as whole eggs with or without shell, narrow neck bottles and sealed containers — for example, closed glass jars — may explode and should not be heated in this oven.

To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity: a Do not overcook food. Carefully attend appliance when paper, plastic, or other combustible materials are placed inside the oven to facilitate cooking. DO NOT leave paper products, cooking utensils or food in the cavity when not in use. Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea are able to be overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing to be boiling.

Visible bubbling when the con- tainer is removed from the microwave oven is not always present. The film of oil will trap steam, and may cause a violent eruption. DO NOTcook directly on the turntable. It can crack, cause injury or damage to the oven.

Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can break off the pad and touch electrical parts, involving a risk of electric shock. Do not use paper products when appliance is operated in the brown mode. Do not store any materials, other than manufacturers recommended acces- sories in this oven when not in use. Do not cover racks or any other part of the oven with metal foil. This will cause overheating of the oven. FM60AP Add page 5 to Favourites. Repairs must be done only by a qualified service person.

DO NOToperate the oven empty. The microwave energy will reflect continuously throughout the oven causing over- heating and damage, if food or water is not present to absorb energy. DO NOTstore flammable materials next to, on top of, or in the oven. DO NOTdry clothes, newspapers or other materials in the oven, or use news- paper or paper bags for cooking. Damage to controls may occur. DO NOTuse recycled paper products unless the paper product is labeled as safe for microwave oven use.

Recyled paper products may contain impurities which may cause sparking. Heat is transferred from the HOT food to the cooking container and from the container to the Glass Tray. The wire rack is designed for use only in the browning mode and will be hot after use. Care in handling must be exercised.

The metal browning dish supplied with this oven must be used only directly upon the glass tray. Other use will result in damage to the dish and the microwave oven. Replace dish if rubber base becomes damaged or separat- ed from metal dish. Glass Tray 1. Improper cooking or damage to the oven could result. Verify that the Glass Tray is properly engaged and rotating by observing its rotation when you press Start.

Note:The Glass Tray can turn in either direction. Use only the Glass Tray specifically designed for this oven. DO NOTsubstitute any other glass tray. If the Glass Tray is hot, allow to cool before cleaning or placing in water. Always place food in a microwave safe dish, on a rack set in a microwave safe dish, or in the metal dish provided with this oven. If food or utensil on the Glass Tray touches oven walls, causing the tray to stop moving, the tray will automatically rotate in the opposite direction.

If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a three wire extension cord that has a three prong polarized grounding plug, and a three slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the appliance. The marked rating of the extension cord should be equal to or greater than the electrical rating of the appliance.

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 cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug.

The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded. Power Supply 1. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Longer cord sets or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. Do notlet cord hang over edge of a table or counter.

If a long cord or extension cord is used, 1 the marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, 2 the extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord, and 3 the longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or table- top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.

No other appliance should share the circuit with the microwave oven. If it does, the branch circuit fuse may blow or the cir- cuit breaker may trip. Where a standard two-prong outlet is encountered, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the consumer to have it replaced with a properly grounded three-prong outlet.
