PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO
EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY
1. Do not attempt to operate this oven with the door-open since open-door
operation can result in harmful exposure to microwave energy. It is important
not to defeat or tamper with the safety interlocks.
2. Do not place any object between the oven front face and the door or allow soil
or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.
3. Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. It is particularly important that the
oven door close properly and that there is no damage to the:
a. Door (bent),
b. Hinges and latches (broken or loosened),
c. Door seals and sealing surfaces.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed,
including the following:
WARNING - To reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, re, injury to persons or
exposure to excessive microwave energy:
1. Read all instructions before using the appliance.
2. Read and follow the specic “PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE
EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY” on page 1.
3. This appliance must be grounded. Connect only to properly grounded outlet. See
“GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS” on page 4.
4. Install or locate this appliance only in accordance with the provided installation
instructions.
5. Some products such as whole eggs and sealed containers -for example, closed
glass jars- are able to explode and should not be heated in this oven.
6. Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in this manual. Do
not use corrosive chemicals or vapors in this appliance. This type of oven is
specically designed to heat, cook, or dry food. It is not designed for industrial or
laboratory use.
7. As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary when used by children.
8. To reduce the risk of re in the oven cavity:
a. Do not overcook food. Carefully attend appliance when paper, plastic, or other
combustible materials are placed inside the oven to facilitate cooking.
b. Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before placing bag in oven.
c. If materials inside the oven should ignite, keep oven door closed, turn oven off,
and disconnect the power cord or shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker
panel.
d. Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do not leave paper products, cooking
utensils or food in the cavity when not in use.
9. Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea are able to be overheated beyond the
boiling point without appearing to be boiling due to surface tension of the
liquid. Visible bubbling or boiling when the container is removed from the microwave oven is not always present. THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN A SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS
INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID. To reduce the risk of injury to person:
a. Do not overheat the liquid.
b. Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it.
c. Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.
d. After heating, allow the container to stand in the microwave oven for a short time
before removing the container.
e. Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil into the container.
10. Do not heat oil or fat for deep-frying. It is difcult to control the temperature of
oil in microwave oven.
11. Pierce foods with heavy skins such as potatoes, whole squash, apples and
chestnuts before cooking.
12. The contents of feeding bottles and baby jars should be stirred or shaken and
the temperature should be checked before serving in order to avoid burns.

13. Cooking utensils may become hot because of heat transferred from the heated
food. Potholders may be needed to handle the utensil.
14. Do not cover or block any openings on the appliance.
15. Do not store or use this appliance outdoors. Do not use this product near water,
for example, near a kitchen sink, in a wet basement, near a swimming pool, or

INSTALLATION GUIDE
1. Make sure that all the packing materials are removed from the inside of the door.
2. Check the oven for any damage, such as misaligned or bent door, damaged door
seals and sealing surface, broken or loose door hinges and latches and dents
inside the cavity or on the door. If there is any damage, do not operate the oven
but contact qualied service personnel.
3. This microwave oven must be placed on a at, stable surface to hold its weight
and the heaviest food likely to be cooked in the oven.
4. Do not place the oven where heat, moisture, or high humidity are generated, or
near combustible materials.
5. For correct operation, the oven must have sufcient airow. Allow 20cm of space
above the oven, 10cm at back and 5cm at both sides. Do not cover or block any
openings on the appliance. Do not remove feet on which oven stands.
6. Do not operate the oven without glass tray, roller support, and shaft in their
proper positions.
7. Make sure that the power supply cord is undamaged and does not run under the
oven or over any hot or sharp surface.
8. The socket must be readily accessible so that it can be easily unplugged in an
emergency.
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.
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, 20 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.
4
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 qualied electrician or service person.
2. Neither Galanz 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 to 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 feasible 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. You should keep distance
of 1 inch (2.54cm) between aluminum foil and cavity.
• 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.
