Using a microwave oven safely

The right place for your microwave oven

Connecting up your microwave oven

SHOULD KNOW!

Things you

When you unpack your microwave oven from its box, please check it immediately for damage. If the door is damaged or bent, if there are dents inside the oven etc., get in touch with your retail outlet immediately.

◆ Never use the microwave oven if it is damaged. It is particularly

important that the door closes properly. The door should not be distorted, the hinges and latch should not be broken, bent or loose, and the seals must be in perfect condition.

◆ This microwave oven contains no user-serviceable components. Any

adjustments or repairs must be performed by a qualified technician.

◆ Never use the oven with the door open. There is the risk of being

exposed to dangerous microwave energy. Never manipulate or tamper with the safety locks and the hinges of the door.

◆ Keep the seals and seal surfaces clean and free of contamination

like food remains and cleaner residue.

◆ Use the microwave oven for cooking purposes only.

Do not use it to dry animals, clothing, paper or other objects or for sterilisation or as a storage space for books, cooking utensils etc.

Prior to use! The grill elements of your oven have been covered by a coating in order to protect during transporting and storage.To remove the coating heat the elements about 5 minutes (bad odour): Place a bowl suitable for microwaves, not too small, filled with 0,2 l water or more into the oven chamber. See chapter "Easy grilling" and start grilling with the time set to 5:00 minutes.

◆ The microwave oven should stand on a flat, stable surface. This

appliance is designed for standing only.

◆ The area immediately around the oven should be free to allow the

circulation of fresh air for cooling.

◆ Do not place the microwave oven near a radio or television set etc.

This might cause interference.

◆ Never place the oven where it is exposed to convection, steam or

humidity.

◆ The oven requires a mains electrical connection of 230 V~ / 50 Hz

with a 15 Amp. fuse.

◆ Only insert the plug into properly installed electrical sockets. If in

doubt contact an electrician.

◆ Faulty connections can start fires and create other risks and prevent

the oven from working correctly. DAEWOO is not liable for any damage due to faulty connection.

◆ A defective power cable must be replaced by a qualified technician

with an new special replacement cable from DAEWOO.

◆ "Never place the oven where the gap between the top of the oven

and a shelf above it is less than 10 centimetres."

230 V~, 50 Hz

WARNING

When heating liquids, e.g. soups, sauces and beverages in your microwave oven, overheating the liquid beyond boiling point can occur without evidence of bubbling. This could result in a sudden boil over of the hot liquid. To prevent this possibility the following steps should be taken:

◆ Avoid using straight sided

containers with narrow necks.

◆ Do not overheat.

◆ Stir the liquid before placing

the container in the oven and again halfway through the heating time.

◆ After heating, allow to stand

in the oven for a short time, stir or shake them again carefully and check the temperature of them before consumption to avoid burns (especially, contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars).

Cooking safely with microwaves

and OVEN

MICROWAVES

When preparing ready-to-serve food (like TV dinners) always carefully follow the instructions provided by the food manufacturer on the package and also the

tips and

guidelines

contained at the end of this manual.

◆ Microwaves are high frequency electromagnetic waves like radio

waves. They create heat by causing the molecules in water, fat and sugar to vibrate. They only penetrate a certain depth (e.g. approx. 25 mm into meat) and this heat is then conducted to the rest of the item being cooked.

◆ Tableware must be suitable for use in a microwave oven.

For example, dishes made of temperature resistant glass, ceramics, porcelain and plastic (in the case of combination cooking it should also be fireproof). Never place closed metal containers into your microwave oven the microwaves are reflected and the food will not get warm.

◆ In the case of TV dinners the food can be left in the aluminium tray

with the top removed.

◆ Microwaves can damage any crockery with gold or silver

decoration

◆ Never place food in the oven in closed containers - the container

could explode.

◆ Food with a skin or peel can explode. Never place eggs in a

microwave. When cooking items such as potatoes, chicken livers etc., puncture the skin using e.g. a fork to allow steam to escape.

◆ Never heat spirits (alcoholic drinks) to high temperatures; they may

self-ignite.

◆ When heating small amounts of liquid (e.g. a cup of tea/coffee),

place a spoon in the cup to prevent boiling over.

◆ Food which has been cooked with a microwave continues to cook

after the oven is switched off. Before allowing others, in particular children or older people, to eat food or drinks from the microwave oven check that the temperature of the food is acceptable (danger of burning/scalding).

◆ Help the heat to spread uniformly by stirring and turning,

in particular after only short heating periods.

◆ Never turn the microwave oven on without food in the chamber -

it might overload and get damaged.

◆ Metal items, e.g. dishes, should not touch the walls of the oven,

this can cause sparking and could cause a fire.

◆ If you think there is a fire in the oven (smoke), leave the door closed,

switch the unit off (press STOP several times) and disconnect from the mains electricity supply.

◆ Always keep the interior of the oven clean and do not allow a build

up of grease on or around the splatter shield (item 4 on diagram).
