PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE

TO EXCESSIVE 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) WARNING : If the door or door seals are damaged, the oven must not be operated until

it has been repaired by a competent person : (1) door (bent), (2) hinges and
latches(broken or loosened), (3) door seals and sealing surfaces.

(d) WARNING : It is hazardous for anyone other than a competent person to carry out any

service or repair operation which involves the removal of a cover which gives protection
against exposure to microwave energy.

(e) WARNING : Liquids or other foods must not be heated in sealed containers since they

are liable to explode.

(f) WARNING : Only allow children to use the oven without supervision when adequate

instructions have been given so that the child is able to use the oven in a safe way and
understands the hazards of improper use.

EARTHING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be earthed. In the event of an electrical short circuit, earthing reduces the risk
of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This appliance is equipped
with a cord having a earthing wire with a earthing plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that
is properly installed and earthed.

WARNING: Improper use of the earthing plug can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a

qualified electrician or serviceman if the earthing instructions are not completely
understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly earthed. If it is
necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3­blade earthing plug, and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the
appliance. The marked rating of the extension cord should be equal to or greater
than the electrical rating of the appliance.

INSTALLATION

Steady, flat location

This oven should be set on a steady, flat surface. This oven is designed for counter top use
only.

Leave space behind and side

All air vents should be kept a clearance. If all vents are covered during operation, the oven may
overheat and, eventually, oven failure.

Away from radio and TV sets

Poor television reception and radio interference may result if the oven is located close to a TV,
Radio antenna, feeder and so on.
Position the oven as far from them as possible.

Away from heating appliance and water taps

Keep the oven away from hot air, steam or splash when choosing a place to position it, or the
insulation might be adversely affected and breakdowns occur.

Power supply

• Check your local power source. This oven requires a current of approximately 6 amperes,
220V~240V/50Hz.

• Power supply cord is about 0.8 meters long.

• The voltage used must be the same as specified on this oven. Using a higher voltage may
result in a fire or other accident causing oven damage. Using low voltage will cause slow
cooking. We are not responsible for damage resulting from use of this oven with a voltage of
ampere fuse other than those specified.

• This appliance is supplied with cable of special type, which, if damaged, must be repaired with
cable of same type.

Examine the oven after unpacking for any damage such as:

A misaligned door, Broken door, A dent in cavity. If any of the above are visible, DO NOT
INSTALL, and notify dealer immediately.

Do not operate the oven if it is colder than room temperature.

(This may occur during delivery in cold weather.) Allow the oven to become room temperature
before operating.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

WARNING : To prevent fire, burns, electric shock and other warnings:
Listed below are, as with all appliances, certain rules to follow and safeguards to assure high

performance from this oven:

1. Do not use the oven for any reason other
than food preparation, such as for drying
clothes, paper, or any other nonfood items or
for sterilizing purposes.

2. Do not use the oven when empty, this could
damage the oven.

3. Do not use the oven cavity for any type of
storage, such as papers, cookbook,
cookware, etc.

4. Do not operate the oven without the glass
tray in place. Be sure it is properly sitting on
the rotating base.

5. Make sure you remove caps or lids prior to
cooking when you cook food sealed in
bottles.

6. Do not put foreign material between the oven
surface and door. It could result in excessive
leakage of microwave energy.

7. Do not use recycled paper products for
cooking. They may contain impurities which
could cause sparks and/or fires when used
during cooking.

8. Do not pop popcorn unless popped in a
microwave approved popcorn popper or
unless it's commercially packaged and
recommended especially for microwave
ovens. Microwave popped corn produces a
lower yield than conventional popping; there
will be a number of unpopped kernels. Do not
use oil unless specified by the manufacturer.

9. Do not cook any food surrounded by a
membrane, such as egg yolks, potatoes,
chicken livers, etc., without first piercing them
several times with a fork.

10.Do not pop popcorn longer than the

manufacturer's directions. (popping time is
generally below 3 minutes). Longer cooking

does not yield more popped corn, it can
cause scorchings and fire.
Also, the cooking tray can become too hot
to handle or may break.

11.If smoke is observed, switch off or unplug
the appliance and keep the door closed in
order to stifle any flames.

12.When heating food in plastic or paper
containers, keep an eye on the oven due to
the possibility of ignition.

13.The contents of feeding bottles and baby
food jars shall be stirred or shaken and the
temperature checked before consumption,
in order to avoid burns.

14.Always test the temperature of food or drink
which has been heated in a microwave
oven before you give it to somebody,
especially to children or elderly people. This
is important because things which have
been heated in a microwave oven carry on
getting hotter even though the microwave
oven cooking has stopped.

15.Eggs in their shell and whole hard-boiled
eggs should not be heated in microwave
ovens since they may explode, even after
microwave heating has ended;

16.Keep the waveguide cover clean at all
times. Wipe the oven interior with a soft
damp cloth after each use. If you leave
grease or fat anywhere in the cavity it may
overheat, smoke or even catch fire when
next using the oven.

17.Never heat oil or fat for deep frying as you
cannot control the temperature and doing so
may lead to overheating and fire.

18.Microwave heating of beverages can result
in delayed eruptive boiling, therefore care
must be taken when handling the container.
