A Note to You Thank you for buying a Whirlpool@ appliance. Because your life is getting busier and more complicated, Whirlpool microwave ovens are easy to use, save lime, and help you manage your home better.

Microwave Oven Safety IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Microwave ovens have been thoroughly tested for safe and efficient operation. However, 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 fire in the oven cavity (continued): -Test dinnerware or cookware before using. To test a dish for safe use, put it into the oven with a cup of water beside it. Cook at 100% Cook Power for one minute. If the dish gets hot and water stays cool, do not use it.
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.
Operating safety precautions To reduce the risk of bums, 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 inslde the shell. Steam buildup in whole eggs may cause them to burst and bum you, and possibly damage the oven.
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 inside of the oven door to look wavy after the oven has been running for a while.
