Important Safety instructions.
READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
•The built-in safety interlock switches prevent the microwave oven from operating when the door is open.
•Do not tamper with them, or attempt to operate the oven with the door open as open door operation can result in exposure to microwave energy.
•Do not allow food spills or cleaner residue to accumulate on door sealing surfaces. See the Cleaning and Care section for cleaning instructions.
•Do not store this appliance outdoors. Do not use this product near water.
•Do not attempt to dry clothing or newspapers in the microwave oven. These items can ignite.
•Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils, or food in the cavity when not in use.
•The temperature of accessible surfaces may be high when the appliance is operating.
•It is particularly important that the oven door closes properly and that there is no damage to the: (1) door (warped), (2) hinges and latches (broken or insecure), (3) door seals and sealing surface.
m WARNING : If the door,
hinges/latches or door seals are damaged, the microwave must not be operated until it has been repaired by a authorized service person.
m WARNING : It is hazardous for
anyone except factory trained service personnel to service or make adjustments to this oven. Contact your nearest authorised service agent if service should be required.
•Do not remove the outer case, door or control panel at any time. Doing so may cause exposure to extremely high voltage.
•Install or locate this oven only in accordance with ‘installation instructions’ found in this manual.
•Use the appliance for its intended use as described in this manual. Do not use corrosive chemicals in this appliance. This type of oven is specifically designed to heat, cook, or defrost food. It is not designed for industrial or laboratory use neither for commercial use as this will invalidate the guarantee.
•Do not operate the oven empty. If food or water is not present to absorb the microwave energy, the magnetron tube can be damaged.
m WARNING : If smoke is observed,
switch off or unplug the appliance and keep the door closed in order to stifle any flames. Never use water.
m WARNING : Only allow children or
infirm persons to use the microwave, without supervision, when adequate instructions have been given so that the child or infirm person is able to use the microwave in a safe way and understand the hazards of improper use.
Utensil safety
•Only use utensils that are suitable for use in a microwave oven.
•Most glass, glass ceramic and heat-resistant glass-ware utensils are excellent for use in the micro-wave oven. Although microwave energy will not heat most glass and ceramic items, these utensils can become hot as heat transfers from the food to the container. The use of oven gloves to remove dishes is recommended.
Testing suitability of cookware
•Utensils should be checked to ensure they are suitable for use in Microwave Ovens.
•Place the cookware in the microwave along with a glass half full of water. Heat on (900W) (100%) for one minute. If the cookware feels hot, you should not use it. If it is just slightly warm, you can use it for reheating but not for cooking. If the dish is room temperature, it is suitable for microwave cooking.

•Paper napkins, wax paper, paper towels, plates, cups, cartons, freezer wrap and cardboard are great convenience utensils. Always be sure containers are filled with food to absorb energy and thus avoid the possibility of overheating or ignition.
•Many plastic dishes, cups, freezer containers and plastic wraps may be used in the microwave oven. Follow manufacturer’s instructions when using plastics in the oven. Avoid using plastic utensils with foods that have high fat or sugar content since these foods reach high temperatures and could melt some plastics.
•Do not leave oven unattended, and look at it from time to time when heating or cooking food in plastic, paper or other combustible containers.
•Metal utensils and utensils with metallic trim should not be used in the microwave oven, unless specifically recommended for microwave use.
•Containers with restricted openings, such as bottles, should not be used for microwave cooking.
•Use caution when removing a lid or cover from a dish to avoid steam burns.
Foil containers
Shallow foil containers may safely be used to reheat foods in your microwave oven providing the following rules are observed:
1.Foil containers should not be more than 3 cms (1 1/4”) deep.
2.Foil lids must not be used.
3.The foil containers must be at least two-thirds full of food. Empty containers must never be used.
4.Foil containers should be used singly in the microwave oven and should not be allowed to touch the sides. If your oven has a metal turntable or cooking rack, the foil container should be placed on an upturned oven-proof plate.
5.Foil containers should never be re-used in the microwave oven.
6.If the microwave oven has been in use for 15 minutes or more, allow it to cool before using it again.

7.The container and turntable may become hot during use, take great care when removing either from the oven. It is advisable to use an oven cloth or glove when doing so.
8.Remember when using an aluminium foil container that the reheating or cooking times may be longer than you are used to, always ensure that the food is piping hot before serving.
