IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
(continued)
—Do not use the oven for storage purposes. Do
not leave paper products, cooking utensils or
food in the oven when not in use.
—If materials inside oven should ignite,
keep
oven door closed, turn oven off, and
discomect
power cord, or shut off power at the fuse or
circuit breaker panel.
●
When using the convection or combination
cooking functions,
both the outside and inside of
the oven will become hot. Always use hot pads to
remove containers of food and accessories such as
the metal accessory rack and temperature probe.
●
Oversized food or oversized metal cookware
should not be used in a microwave/convection
oven because they increase the risk of electric
shock and could cause a fire.
●
Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces
can burn off the pad and touch electrical parts
involving risk of electric shock.
●
Do not use paper products when the
microwave/convection oven is operated in
the convection or combination mode.
●
Do not store any materials, other than our
recommended accessories, in this oven when
not in use.
● Some products such as whole eggs and
sealed containers-for example, closed glass
jars-will explode and should not be heated in
this microwave/convection oven. Such use of the
microwave/convection oven could result in injury.
● Avoid heating baby food in glass jars, even with
the lid off. Make sure all infant food is thoroughly
cooked. Stir food to distribute the heat evenly.
Be careful to prevent scalding when warming
formula or breast milk. The container may feel
cooler than the milk really is. Always test the
milk before feeding the baby.
●
Don’t defrost frozen beverages
in narrow
necked bottles (especially carbonated beverages).
Even if the container is opened, pressure can build
up. This can cause the container to burst, possibly
resulting in injury.
●
Use foil only as directed in this guide.
TV
dinners maybe microwaved in foil trays less
than 3/4” high; remove top foil cover and return
tray to box. When using foil in the microwave/
convection oven,
keep foil at least 1 inch away
from sides of oven.
●
Do not cover the shelf or any other part
of the oven with metal foil. This will cause
overheating of the microwave/convection oven.
-
●
Cookware may become hot
because
of heat transferred from the heated
food. Pot holders may be needed to
handle the cookware.
●
Sometimes, the oven floor and walls can
become too hot to touch.
Be careful touching the
floor and walls during and after cooking.
●
Foods cooked in liquids
(such as pasta) may tend
to boil over more rapidly than foods containing
less moisture. Should this occur, refer to the Care
and Cleaning section(s) for instructions on how to
clean the inside of the oven.
● Thermometer-Do not use regular cooking
or oven thermometers when cooking by
microwave or combination.
The metal and
mercury in these thermometers could cause
“arcing” and possible damage to the oven.
Do not use a thermometer in food you are
microwaving unless the thermometer is
designed or recommended for use in the
microwave/convection oven.
●
Remove the temperature probe from the oven
when not using it to cook with.
If you leave the
probe inside the oven without inserting it in food
or liquid, and turn on microwave energy, it can
create electrical arcing in the oven, damage oven
walls and damage the temperature probe.
