The built-in safety interlock switches prevent the
microwave oven from operating when the door is
open.
•
Do not tamper with them, or attempt to operate
the oven with the door open as open door
operation can result in exposure to microwave
energy.
•
Do not allow food spills or cleaner residue to
accumulate on door sealing surfaces. See the
Cleaning and Care section for cleaning
instructions.
•
Do not operate the oven if it is damaged until it
has been repaired by qualified service personnel.
•
It is particularly important that the oven door
closes properly and that there is no damage to
the: (1) door (warped), (2) hinges and latches
(broken or insecure), (3) door seals and sealing
surface.
•
Under no circumstances should you attempt to
repair the appliance yourself. Repairs carried out
by inexperienced persons may cause injury or
serious malfunctioning. Contact your local Service
Force Centre.
•
Do not remove the outer case, door or control
panel at any time. Doing so may cause exposure
to extremely high voltage.
•

Utensil safety
Most glass, glass ceramic and heat-resistant
glassware utensils are excellent for use in the
microwave oven. Although microwave energy will not
heat most glass and ceramic items, these utensils
can become hot as heat transfers from the food to
the container. The use of oven gloves to remove
dishes is recommended.
1. The glass viewing window may break if water is
spilled on it during grilling.
2. Be sure to use an oven glove when loading and
unloading the oven. Containers get very hot in the
oven, so be careful not to burn yourself. The
turntable and metal rack also get very hot so be
sure to use an oven glove when handling them.
3. Do not touch the inner or outer viewing window
with metal components when loading or unloading
the oven. The inside of the door and oven get
very hot so take care when attending food in the
oven.
4. Do not put the turntable or containers in cold
water or try to cool them quickly after use.
5. Do not place items on top of the cabinet. The top
of the cabinet gets very hot, so anything placed
on it may be damaged by the heat. It is quite
normal for steam to be emitted around the door,
or for misting to occur on the door, or even
around the door, or even for water droplets to
appear below the door during the cooking cycle.
This is merely condensation from the heat of the
food and does not affect the safety of your oven.
The door is not intended to seal the oven cavity
completely.
