1) Read all instructions before using the appliance.
2) Read and follow the specific “PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE
TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY” found on page 5.
3) This appliance must be grounded. Connect only to properly grounded outlet. See
“IMPORTANT GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS” found on page 4.
4) Install or locate this appliance only in accordance with the provided installation instructions.
5) Some products such as whole eggs and sealed containers – for example, closed glass jars – are able to explode and should not be heated in this oven.
6) Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in the manual. Do not use corrosive chemicals or vapors in this appliance. This type of oven is specifically designed to heat, cook, or dry food. It is not designed for industrial or laboratory use.
7) As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary when used by children.

Important Grounding Instructions
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
WARNING-Improper use of grounding can result in a risk of electric shock.
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 and either:
1. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug, and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the appliance. The marked electrical rating of the extension cord shall be equal to or greater than the rating of the appliance, or
2. Do no use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or serviceman install an outlet near the appliance.
