Magic Chef countertop microwave safety precautions

• Never attempt to repair internal microwave components inside the microwave oven cabinet. The high-voltage capacitor inside the microwave retains a lethal electrical charge even when the microwave power cord is unplugged from the wall outlet. Have a service technician repair any internal microwave component failure
• Do not operate the microwave with the door open. Interlock switches should prevent the microwave from starting with the door open.
• Don't use the microwave if you see door damage. A damaged door can allow microwave radiation to leak out of the cavity. Have a service technician repair the microwave door and test the door for radiation leakage.
• Clean food residue out of the microwave cavity often.

Defrosting tips for your Magic Chef countertop microwave

• When using Auto Defrost, enter the net weight of the portion that you're defrosting (the weight of the food minus the weight of the container).
• Make sure that you remove any metal such as twist ties from the item before starting the microwave.
• Leave the container lid open. Slit or pierce plastic packaging. Slit the skins of foods such as sausages.
• As food begins to defrost, separate the pieces of food so items defrost more easily.
• Turn food over halfway through the defrost process to evenly defrost items top to bottom.
• Let food stand for several minutes after defrosting.
