INSTALLATION
1. Steady, flat location
This oven should be set on a steady, flat surface.
This oven is designed for counter top use only.
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. Power supply
• Check your local power source. This oven
requires a current of approximately 12 amperes,
230V~ 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.
• If the supply cord is damaged. It must be
replaced by the manufacturer or its service
agent or similarly qualified person in order to

antennas).
c) Metal such as twist-ties, poultry pins, or gold
rimmed dishes in the microwave.
d) Recycled paper towels containing small metal
pieces being used in the microwave.
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:
IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP
FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
CARE OF YOUR
MICROWAVE OVEN
1. Turn the oven off before cleaning.
2. Keep the inside of the oven clean. When food
spatters or spilled liquids adhere to oven walls,
wipe with a damp cloth. Mild detergent may be
used if the oven gets very dirty. The use of harsh
detergent or abrasives is not recommended.
3. The outside oven surface should be cleaned
with soap and water, rinsed and dried with a soft
cloth. To prevent damage to the operating parts
inside the oven, water should not be allowed to
seep into the ventilation openings.
4. If the Control Panel becomes wet, clean with a
soft, dry cloth. Do not use harsh detergents or
abrasives on Control Panel.
5. If steam accumulates inside or around the
outside of the oven door, wipe with a soft cloth.
This may occur when the microwave oven is
operated under high humidity conditions and in
no way indicates malfunction of the unit.
6. It is occasionally necessary to remove the glass
tray for cleaning. Wash the tray in warm sudsy
water or in a dishwasher.
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 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.

COOKING GUIDE
COOKING UTENSILS
Only use utensils that are suitable for use in
microwave ovens.
UTENSIL TEST
Place the utensil in question next to a glass measure
filled with water, in the microwave oven. Microwave at
high power for 1-2 minutes. If the water heats up, but
the utensil remains cool, the utensil is microwave-safe.
However if the utensil becomes warm, microwaves are
being absorbed by the utensil and it should not be in
the microwave oven. You probably have many items
on hand in your kitchen right now that can be used as
cooking equipment in your microwave oven. Read
through the following checklist.
Recommended Use
Glass and glass - ceramic bowls and dishes -
Use for heating or cooking.
Microwave browning dish - Use to brown the
exterior of small items such as steaks, chops, or
pancakes. Follow the directions provided with you
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.
Wax paper - Use as a cover to prevent spattering.
Paper towels, paper plates napkins and cups - Use
for short term heating and covering; they absorb
excess moisture and prevent spattering. Always
attend the oven closely. Only use to absorb fat and
moisture when warming food. Pay special attention as
over-heating may cause a fire in your oven. Do not
use re-cycled paper products, e.g. kitchen roll unless
they say they are specifically designed for use in a
microwave oven. These products contain impurities
which may cause sparks and/or fires when used.
Thermometers - Use only those labeled "Microwave
Safe" and follow all directions. Check the food in
several places. Conventional thermometers may be
used once the food has been removed from the oven.
Microwave cling film, microwave roasting bags Microwave cling film and bags must be vented for
steam to escape, pierce in 4~5 places. Do not use
plastic or metal ties as they may melt or catch fire due
to electrical ‘arcing’.
Limited Use
Aluminum foil - Use narrow strips of foil to
prevent overcooking of exposed areas. Using too
much toil can damage your oven, so be careful.
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. Never use dishes with metallic trim.
Plastic - Use only if labeled "Microwave Safe".
Other plastics can melt.
Thin plastic, paper, straw and wooden containers Always attend the oven closely. Look at the oven from
time to time when cooking or reheating food in disposable
containers of plastic, paper or other combustible material.
Only use for warming food. Pay special attention as
overheating may cause a fire in your oven.
Not Recommended
Glass jars and bottles - Regular glass is too thin
to be used in a microwave, and can shatter.
Paper bags popcorn bags that are designed for microwave use.
Styrofoam plates and cups - These can melt and
leave an unhealthy residue on food.
Plastic storage and food containers - Containers
such as margarine tubs can melt in the microwave.
Metal utensils - These can damage your oven.
Remove all metal before cooking.
