PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE
MICROWAVE ENERGY
(a) 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.
(b) Do not place any object between the oven front face and the door or allow
soil or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.
(c) 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: (1) Door (bent), (2) hinges and latches (broken or loosened), (3) door seals and sealing surfaces.
(d) The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except for qualified
service personnel.

Utensils made of china and ceramic excellent to use in your microwave oven. Most types of glass are also very good. Lead crystal glass can crack and should therefore, not be used. Plastics and paper can also be used, provided they can withstand the temperature of the heated food. For cooking only use plastics, which will withstand a temperature of over 120°C, Eg. polypropene and polyamide. Some plastic materials, Eg. melamine, will be heated by the microwave, and be damaged. To find out if a certain container is suitable, the following simple test can be made:
Place the empty container and glass of water inside the microwave oven. The water is needed because the oven must not be operated empty or with empty containers only. Let the oven work on full power for one minute. A suitable container will only be lukewarm. Metal containers, Eg. saucepans or frying pans should not be used in microwave ovens. Nor should plates or vessels with decorations be used since metal Eg. gold, might be part of the decoration and such decorations will be damaged. Small pieces of aluminiuum foil can be used, but only to shield the areas that would over-cook (Eg. for covering chicken wings, leg tips and fish tails) but the foil must not touch the side of the oven as
TO AVOID EXPLOSION AND SUDDEN BOILIING
1. Eggs Never cook eggs in their shells. Steam will build up inside the shell during cooking and the egg will explode. If you want to cook or reheat eggs which have not been broken up by scrambling or mixing, you must always pierce the yolks or these will also explode. You should slice shelled hard boiled eggs before you reheat them in your microwave oven.
2. Piercing Always pierce food which has a skin or membrane, for example, potatoes, tomatoes, apples, sausages etc. if you don't pierce them, steam will build up inside and they may explode.
3. Lids Always remove the lids of jars and containers and take away food containers, before you cook using your microwave oven. If you don't, then steam and pressure might build up inside and cause an explosion even after the microwave cooking has stopped.
WHICH UTENSIL CAN BE USED IN THE OVEN?
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 not liquid. To prevent this possibility the following steps should be taken:
a. Avoid using straight sided containers with narrow
necks. b. Do not over heat. c. Stir the liquid before placing the container in the oven
and again halfway through the heating time. d. 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).

KEEP THE OVEN CLEAN
INSIDE THE OVEN
The interior three side walls and floor are stainless steel. For easy cleaning, wipe spills and spatters as they occur with a damp cloth or sponge with water and a mild detergent. Rinse the cavity of any cleaning residue with a clean damp or sponge after cleaning. Dry with a soft cloth.
These areas can also cleaned by using plastic or nylon scouring pads recommended for use of Teflon and Silverstone*.
For hard to remove soil, use a mild non-abrasive cleaner. Use on the stainless steel areas, turntable and roller guide only.
TURNTABLE AND ROLLER GUIDE
It is occasionally necessary to remove the glass tray for cleaning. Wash the glass tray in warm water or in a dish washer. The roller guide and oven cavity floor should be cleaned regulary of the avoid excessive noise. Simply wipe the bottom surface of the oven with mild detergent water or window cleaner and dry. The roller guide may be washed with mild water or a dish washer.
DOOR
While the oven door is still warm, any splatters or food soils should be wiped off with a damp cloth or sponge. Rinse with water and wipe dry with a cloth.
If steam or condensation appears around this area, wipe with a cloth. this may occur when the oven is operating under high humidity and with foods containing lots of moisture. This is a normal part of microwave cooking.
EXTERIOR
CONTROL PANEL
Excercise care when cleaning this area. To clean, wipe the panel with a slightly dampened cloth, using only water. Wipe dry. Do not scrub this area or use any sort of chemical cleaner. Avoid use of excess water.
OUTSIDE SUFACE
The outside surfaces should be cleaned with soap and water, rinsed and dried with a soft cloth. Do not use any type of household or abrasive cleanser.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Q: I accidentally ran my microwave oven without any food in it. is it damaged?
A: We do not recommend to operating the microwave oven without any food. However, running the oven empty for a
SHORT time will not damage the oven.
Q: Can I open the door when the oven is operating?
A: The door can be opened anytime durng the oven operation. Microwave energy will be instantly switched off and
the time setting will maintain until the door is closed.
Q: Does microwave energy pass through the viewing screen in the door?
A: No. The metal screen bounces back the energy to the oven cavity. The holes are made to allow light to pass through.
They do not let microwave energy pass through.
Q: My microwave oven causes interference with my TV. is this normal?
A: Some radio and TV interference might occur when you cook with the microwave oven. This interference is similar to
the interference caused by small appliances such as mixers, vacuums, blow dryers, etc. It does not indicate a problem with your oven.
Q: How can we know whether the oven is operating or not?
A: Oven is operating only when the door is closed.
The operation of fan motor is same as the oven's operating.
Q: Why does my oven light dim?
A: When cooking with DEF. power, the oven must cycle to obtain the selected power levels. The oven light, dims and
clicking noises can be heard when the oven cycles.
Q: When is the oven light on and off?
A: The oven light is on during the cooking time.
Q: Why does steam accumulate on the oven door?
A: During cooking, steam is given off from the food. Most of the steam is removed from the oven by the air which circulates in
the oven cavity. However, some steam will condense on cooler surfaces such as the oven door. This is normal.
Q: Sometimes warm air comes from the oven vents. Why?
A: The heat given off from the cooking food warms the air in the oven cavity. This warmed air is carried out of the oven by the air
flow pattern in the oven. There are no microwave in the air. The oven vents should never be blocked during cooking.
Q: Why does the smoke come out of the exhaust vent at the back of oven?
A: It is normal for smoke to come out of the vents during cooking. Smoke may be produced when food is overcooked.
