T SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Microwave ovens have been thoroughly tested for safe and efficient operation. How-

ever, as with any appliance, there are special installation and safety precautions which

must be followed to ensure safe and satisfactory operation and prevent damage to the

unit.

To reduce the risk of burns, fire, electrical shock, injury to

persons, exposure to excessive microwave energy, or dam-

PRECAUTIONSTOAVOIDPOSSIBLE

EXPOSURETOEXCESSIVE

MICROWAVEENERGY...

Do not attempt to operate this oven with

the door open since open-door operation

can result in harmful exposure to micro-

wave energy. It is important not to defeat

or tamper with the safety interlocks.

Do not place any object between the oven

front face and the door or allow soil or

cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing

surfaces,

(1) Door (bent),

(2) Hinges and latches (broken or

loosened),

(3) Door seals and sealing surfaces.

Do not operate the microwave oven if the

door window is broken.

The microwave oven should be checked

for microwave leakage by qualified service

personnel after a repair is made.

Do not operate the oven if it is damaged.

It is particularly important that the oven

door close properly and that there is no

damage to the:

The oven should not be adjusted or

repaired by anyone except properly

qualified service personnel.

Do not operate the microwave oven with

the outer cabinet removed.

To reduce the risk of burns, fire, electrical

shock, injury to persons, or damage

when using the microwave oven, follow

the precautions on pages 6-7.

Never cook or reheat a whole egg inside

the shell. Steam build-up in whole eggs

may cause them to burst and burn you,

and possibly damage the oven. Slice

hard-boiled eggs before heating. In rare

instances, poached eggs have been known

to explode. Cover poached eggs and allow

a standing time of one minute before cutting

into them.

Stir

before heating

For best results, stir any liquid several

times before heating or reheating. Liquids

heated in certain containers (especially

cylindrical containers) may become over-

heated. The liquid may splash out with a

loud noise during or after heating or when

adding ingredients (coffee, etc.) resulting in

harm to the oven and possible personal

injury.

Never lean on the door or allow a child to

swing on it when the door is open. Injury

could result.

Use hot pads. Microwave energy does not

heat containers, but the hot food does.

Do not overcook potatoes. Fire could

result. At the end of the recommended

cooking time, potatoes should be slightly

firm because they will continue cooking

during standing time. After microwaving,

wrap potatoes in foil and set aside for

5 minutes. They will finish cooking while

standing.

Do not start a microwave oven when it is

empty. Product life may be shortened.

If you practice programming the oven, put

a container of water in the oven.

It is normal for the oven door to look wavy

after the oven has been running for a while.

Do not use newspaper or other printed paper

in the oven. Fire could result.

Do not dry flowers, fruit, herbs, wood,

paper, gourds or clothes in the oven. Fire

could result.

Glass turntable

Do not operate the microwave oven unless

the glass turntable is securely in place and

can rotate freely. The turntable can rotate in

either direction.

Make sure support base is all the way on

the shaft in oven cavity floor. Make sure

support rollers are completely inside center

circle of turntable for proper rotation.

Make sure the glass turntable is correct-

side up in oven. Carefully place cookware

on glass turntable to avoid possible break-

age.

Handle glass turntable with care when

removing from oven to avoid possible

breakage. If glass turntable cracks or

breaks, contact your Whirlpool dealer for a

replacement.

When you use a browning dish, the

browning dish bottom must be at least

% inch above the glass turntable. Follow

directions supplied with browning dish.

General information

Do not try to melt paraffin wax in the oven.

Paraffin wax will not melt in a microwave

oven because it allows microwaves to pass

through it.

Fuse box

If your electric power line or outlet

voltage is less than 110 volts, cooking

times may be longer. Have a qualified

electrician check your electrical system.

Installation Instructions

Before you begin operating the oven,

carefully read the following instructions.

Empty

the microwave oven and clean

inside it with a soft, damp cloth. Check for

damage such as misaligned door, dam-

age around the door, or dents inside the

oven or on the exterior. If there is any

damage, do not operate the unit until it

has been checked by an authorized

Whirlpool@ service technician and any

repairs made.

2. Put the oven on a cart, counter, table, or

shelf that is strong enough to hold the

oven and the food and utensils you put in

it. (The control side of the unit is the

heavy side. Use care when handling.)

The weight of the oven is approximately

35 Ibs (15.75 kg). The microwave oven

should be at a temperature above 50°F

(10%) for proper operation.

l Do not block the rear air intake open-

inches of space at back of oven where

intake opening and exhaust vents are

located. Blocking the air intake open-

ings and exhaust vents can cause

damage to the oven and poor cooking

results. Make sure the microwave oven

legs are in place to ensure proper

airflow.

l Do not install the oven next to or over a

heat source (for example, a cooktop or

range) without a UL approved trim kit

or without being in a UL approved built-

in configuration. Also, do not install

oven in any area where excessive heat

and steam are generated. This could

cause a fire, electrical shock, exces-

sive exposure to microwave energy,

other personal injury or damage to the

outside of the cabinet.

Built-in kits

You can build in your microwave oven by

using one of the trim kits listed on page 15.

These kits are available from your Whirlpool

can be ordered, by kit part number, by

How your microwave oven works

Microwave ovens are safe. Microwave

energy is not hot. It causes food to make its

own heat, and it’s this heat that cooks the

food.

Microwaves are like TV waves or light

waves. You cannot see them, but you can

see what they do.

Magnetron

mij

Oven cavity

A magnetron in the microwave oven

produces microwaves. The microwaves

move into the oven where they contact food

as it turns on the glass turntable.
