GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces

risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. The 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 the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.

Electrical Requirements

The electrical requirements are a 120 volt 60 Hz, AC only, 15 amp. It is recommended that a

separate circuit serving only the oven be provided. The oven is equipped with a 3-prong

grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and

grounded.

Power Supply Cord

1. A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming

entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

2. Longer cord sets or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in

their use.

3. If long cord or extension cord is used：

a) The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as

great as the electrical rating of the appliance.

b) The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord, and The longer cord

should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or table top where it

can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.

Notes:

1. If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical instructions, consult a

qualified electrician or service person.

2. Neither SANYO nor the dealer can accept any liability for damage to the oven or personal

injury resulting from failure to observe the electrical connection procedures.

Radio or TV Interference

Should there be any interference caused by the microwave oven with your radio or TV, check

that the microwave oven is on a different circuit, relocated the radio or TV as far away from

the oven as possible or check position and signal of receiving antenna.

UTENSILS GUIDE

This section lists which utensils can be used in the microwave, which ones have limited use

for short periods, and which ones should not be used in the microwave.

Recommended

·Microwave browning dish — Use to brown the exterior of small items such as steaks,

chops, or pancakes. Follow the directions provided with your browning dish.

·Microwaveable plastic wrap — Use to retain steam. Leave a small opening for some

steam to escape and avoid placing it directly on the food.

·Paper towels and napkins — Use for short-term heating and covering; these absorb

excess moisture and prevent spattering. Do not use recycled paper towels, which may

contain metal and could ignite.

·Glass and glass-ceramic bowls and dishes — Use for heating or cooking.

·Paper plates and cups — Use for short-term heating at low temperatures. Do not use

recycled paper, which may contain metal and could ignite.

·Wax paper — Use as a cover to prevent spattering.

·Thermometers — Use only those labeled “Microwave Safe” and follow all directions. Check

the food in several places. Conventional thermometers may be used on microwave food once

the food has been removed from the oven.

Limited Use

·Aluminum foil — Use narrow strips of foil to prevent overcooking of exposed areas. Using

too much foil can damage your oven, so be careful.

·Ceramic, porcelain, and stoneware — Use these if they are labeled “Microwave Safe”.

If they are not labeled, test them to make sure they can be used safely.

·Plastic — Use only if labeled “Microwave Safe”. Other plastics can melt.

·Straw, wicker, and wood — Use only for short-term heating, such as warming dinner rolls

for a few seconds; baskets and bowls may be flammable.

Not Recommended

·Glass jars and bottles — Regular glass is toBT/is tw

COOKING TECHNIQUES

Your microwave makes cooking easier than conventional cooking, provided you keep these

considerations in mind:

as roasts.

Stirring

Stir foods such as casseroles and

vegetables while cooking to distribute heat

evenly. Food at the outside of the dish

absorbs more energy and heats more

quickly, so stir from the outside to the center.

The oven will turn off when you open the

door to stir your food.

Standing

Foods cooked in the microwave build up

internal heat and continue to cook for a few

minutes after heating stops. Let foods stand

to complete cooking, especially foods such

as cakes and whole vegetables. Roasts

need this time to complete cooking in the

center without overcooking the outer areas.

All liquids, such as SOUP or hot chocolate,

should be shaken or stirred when cooking is

complete. Let liquids stand a moment before

serving. When heating baby food, stir well at

removal and test the temperature before

serving.

Arrangement

Arrange unevenly shaped foods, such as

chicken pieces or chops, with the thicker,

meatier parts toward the outside of the

turntable where they receive more

microwave energy. To prevent overcooking,

place delicate areas, such as asparagus tips,

toward the center of the turntable.

Adding moisture

Microwave energy is attracted to water

molecules. Food that is uneven in moisture

content should be covered or allowed to

stand so that the heat disperses evenly. Add

a small amount of water to dry food to help it

cook.

Shielding

Shield food with narrow strips of aluminum

foil to prevent overcooking. Areas that need

shielding include poultry wing-tips, the ends

of poultry legs, and corners of square baking

dishes. Use only small amounts of aluminum

foil. Larger amounts can damage your oven.

Turning

Turn foods over midway through cooking to

expose all parts to microwave energy. This

is especially important with large foods such

plugged in securely. If it is not, remove

the plug from the outlet, wait 10

seconds and plug it in again securely.

2. Check for a blown circuit fuse or a

tripped main circuit breaker. If these

seem to be operating properly, test the

outlet with another appliance.

4. Check to ensure that the door is

securely closed, engaging the door

safety lock system. Otherwise, the

microwave energy will not flow into the

oven.

IF NONE OF THE ABOVE RECTIFIES THE SITUATION, THEN CONTACT A QUALIFIED

TECHNICIAN. DO NOT TRY TO ADJUST OR REPAIR THE OVEN YOURSELF.
