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 5 amperes, 230V
50Hz.

• Power supply cord is about 1.1 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 termperature.

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

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.

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.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR GENERAL USE

Listed below are, as with all appliances, certain rules to follow and safeguards to

assure top 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. Should the microwave oven emit smoke in quantity to indicate a fire, keep the oven door shut,
switch the appliance off and disconnect the mains lead from the outlet.

12. When flammable food containers are used in the oven (e.g. packet popcorn) be sure to check
the cooking process periodically in case fire has occured.

13. Always stir and/or shake the containers of baby foods prior to testing their temperature and
serving the contents.

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.
