PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE

TO EXCESSIVE MICROWA VE 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.

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.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

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.

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 6 amperes, 220V 60Hz.

• 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 a

similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.

6 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.

7 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.

8 The minimum height of free space necessary above the top surface of the oven is 100mm.

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 3-blade 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.

WARNING: This appliance must be earthed.

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.

Door latch-When the door is closed

it will automatically shut off. If the

door is opened while the oven is

operating, the magnetron will

automatically shut off.

Door seal-The door seal maintains

the microwave within the oven cavity

and prevents microwave leakage

Oven cavity

Spatter shield-Protects the

microwave outlet from splashes of

cooking foods.

Safety interlock system-Prevents

the oven from operating while the

door is opened.

Door release button-Pushing this

button stops oven operation and

opens the door.

Glass cooking tray-Made of special

heat resistant glass. The tray must

always be in proper position before

operating.

Do not cook food directly on the tray.

Roller guide-Supports the glass

cooking tray.

Door screen-Allows viewing of food.

The screen is designed so that light

can pass through, but not the

microwaves.
