PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE
EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE
MICROWAVE ENERGY
The
oven cannot be operated with the door open due to the safety interlocks built in the door mechanism
which switch off cooking functions when the door is opened. Operating the oven with the door open could
result in harmful exposure to microwave energy. It is important not to tamper with the door mechanism.
