Check for damage such as misaligned door, damage around the door or dents inside the oven or on the exterior.
4. ElecPrical requirements Observe all governing codes and ordi- nances. A 120 Volt, 60Hz, AC only, 15 or 20 amp fused electrical supply is required. (Time-delay fuse is recommended.) It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only this appliance be provided.
Custom mounting your microwave oven Your microwave oven is not limited to carts, coun- ters or tables. Custom installations are made easy with kits available from your dealer.
How Your Microwave Oven Works Microwave ovens are safe. Microwave energy is not hot. It causes food to make its own heat, and it’s this heat that cooks the food. Microwaves are like TV waves or light-waves. You can’t see them but you can see what they do.
Operating Safety Precautions To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, injury to persons, or damage when using the microwave oven, follow the precautions on pages 30-33. Never cook or reheat a whole egg. Steam build-up in whole eggs may cause them to burst and burn you, and possibly damage the oven.
Do not heat, store or use flammable materials in or near the oven. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion. Do not do canning of foods in the oven. Closed glass jars may explode resulting in damage to the oven or possible personal injury. Do not use the oven to sterilize objects (baby bottles, etc.
Operating Safety Precautions Continued Do not pop popcorn, except in a microwave approved popcorn popper or commercial pack- age desinged especially for microwave ovens. Follow directions supplied with the popper. Never try to pop popcorn in a paper bag.
General information If your electric power line or outlet voltage is less than the normal 120 volts, cooking times may be longer. To test a dish for safe use, put it into the oven with a cup of water beside it. Cook on HIGH Cook Power for one minute. If the dish gets hot and water stays cool, do not use it.
