Always use hot pads to remove containers of food and accessories such as the oven shelf. ■ Thermometer-Do not use regular cooking or oven thermometers when cooking by microwave or using the Fast Bake mode. 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 oven. ■ Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can burn off the pad and touch electrical parts involving risk of electric shock. ■ Do not store any materials, other than our recommended accessories, in this oven when not in use. ■ Do not store this appliance outdoors. Do not use this product near water-for example, in a wet basement, near a swimming pool, near a sink or in similar locations. ■ Keep power cord away from heated surfaces. ■ Some products such as whole eggs and sealed containers-for example, closed jars-are able to explode and should not be heated in this microwave oven. Such use of the microwave oven could result in injury. ■ It is important to keep the area clean where the door seals against the microwave.

Arcing is caused by: ■ The metal shelf not installed correctly so it touches the microwave wall. ■ Metal or foil touching the side of the oven. ■ Turntable ring support not installed correctly. ■ Foil not molded to food (upturned edges act like antennas). ■ Metal, such as twist-ties, poultry pins, or goldrimmed dishes, in the microwave. ■ Recycled paper towels containing small metal pieces being used in the microwave.
