Safety Lock Guide

For safety, this microwave requires a 2-step process to open the door. This safety door lock feature reduces the risks to young children by reducing the likelihood of them handling hot food and beverage items.

• Hot contents can cause severe burns. Do not allow children to use the microwave.

• All persons should use caution when removing hot items from the microwave oven.

When the Safety Lock is enabled, you must complete the 2-step process each time you open the door.

If there are no young children in your household, or disabilities make it difficult for adults to operate the 2-step door latch, refer to the instructions below to disable the safety lock feature and convert the door to a 1-step push button latch.

Opening Door with Safety Lock Enabled

• Use one finger to locate and press the safety lock button on the right side of the door.

• While pressing the lock button, use your thumb to press the door latch release button on the front of the door.
