Microwave Oven Owner’s Manual

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.
Caution: Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is too short,
have a qualified electrician or serviceman install an outlet near the
appliance.
Testing Containers and Utensils
Some non-metallic containers and utensils become extremely
hot when used in a microwave oven. To avoid risk of scald-
ing, use the following procedure to determine if a container
or utensil is safe for microwave use:
1. Fill a microwave-safe container with 1 cup (250 ml) of cold
water. Place it in the microwave oven along with the container
or utensil in question.
2. Turn the oven on maximum power for 1 minute. Do not
exceed 1 minute cooking time.
3. Carefully feel the container. If the empty container is warm,
do not use it for microwave cooking.
