READ CAREFULL Y AND K EEP F OR FUT URE REFEREN CE

•

The built-in safety interlock switches prevent the microwave oven from operating when the door is open.

•

Do not tamper with th em, or attempt to operate the oven with the door open as open door opera tion can result in exposure to microwave energy.

•

Do not allow food sp ills o r c leaner residue to accumulate on door sealing surfaces. See the Cleaning and Care section for cleaning instructions.

•

It is particularly important that the oven door closes properly and that there is no damage to the: (1) door (warped), (2) hinges and latches (broken or insecure), (3) door seals and sealing surface.

WARNING

: If the door, hinges/latches

or door seals are damaged, the microwave must not be operated until it has been repaired by a authorized service person.

WARNING

: It is hazardous for anyone

excep t factory tr ai n e d se r vi ce perso n nel to service or make adjustments to this oven. Contact your nearest authorised service agent if service should be required.

•

Do not remove the outer case, door or control panel at any time. Doing so may cause exposure to extremely high voltage.

•

Install or locate this oven only in accord ance with ‘installation instructions’ found in this manual.

•

Use the appliance for its intended use as described in this manual. Do not use corrosive chemicals in this appliance. This type of oven is specifically designed to heat, cook, or defrost food. It is not designed for industrial or laboratory use neither for commercial u se as this will invalidate the guaran te e.

•

Do not operate the oven empty. If food or water is not present to absorb the microwave energy , the magne tron t u be can be damag e d.

•

Do not store this appliance o u tdoors. Do not use this product near water.

•

Do not attempt to dry clothing or new spapers in the mic r o w a ve oven. Thes e items can ignite.

•

Do not use the ca vity for storage purposes. Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils, or food in the cavity when not in use.

•

The temperature of acc essible surfaces may be high when the app liance i s operating.

WARNING

: If smoke is observed, switch

off or unplug the appliance and keep the door closed in order to stifle any flames. Never use water.

WARNING

: Only allow c hildren o r infirm

persons to use the mi crow ave, without supervision, when adeq uate in structions h a ve been given so that the child or infirm person is able to use the microwave in a safe way and understand the hazards of improper use.

Utensil safe ty

•

Only use utensils that are suitable for use in a microwave oven.

•

Most glass, glass ceramic and heat-resistant glass- ware utensils are excellent for use in t he micro- wave ove n . A lthough microw a ve energy will not heat most glass and ceram ic items, these utensils can become hot as heat transfers from the food to the container. The use of oven gloves to remove dish es is re c ommended.

Testing suitability of c ookw are

•

Utensils should be checked to ensure they are suitable for use in Microwave Ovens.

•

Place the cookware in the microwave along with a glass half full of water. Heat on

(800W)

(100%) for one minute. If the cookware feels hot, you should not use it. If it is just slightly warm, you can use it for reheating but not for cooking. If the dish is room temperature, it is suitable for microwave cooking.

•

Paper napkins, wax paper, paper towels, plates, cups, cartons, freezer wrap and cardboard are great convenience utensils. Always be sure containers are filled with food to absorb energy and thus avoid the po ssibility of overheating or ignition.

Important Safety instructions.

EMS2020

í===========================================

English

•

Many plastic dishes, cups, freezer co ntainers and plastic wraps may be used in the microwave oven. Follow manufacturer’s instructions when using plastics in the oven. Avoid using plastic utensils with foods that have high fat or sugar content since these foods reach high temper atures and could melt some plastics.

•

Do not leave oven unattended, and look at it from time to time when heating or cooking food in plastic, paper or other combustible containers.

•

Metal utensils and utensils with me tallic trim should not be used in the microwave oven, unless specifically recommended for m icrowave use.

•

Containers with restricted openings, such as bottles, should not be used for microwave cooking.

•

Use caution when removing a lid or cover from a dish to avoid steam burns.

Foil containe rs

Shallow foil containers may safely be used to reheat foods in your microwave ov e n providing the follow ing rules are observed:

1. Foil containers should not be more than 3 cms (1 1/4”) deep.

2. Foil lids must n o t b e used.

3. The foil containers must be at least two-thirds full of food. Empty containers must never be used.

4. Foil co ntainers should be used si n g ly in the microwave oven and should not be allowed to touch the sides. If your oven has a metal turntable or cooking rack, the foil container should be placed on an upturned oven-proof plate.

5. Foil co ntainers should never be re-used in the microwave oven.

6. If the microwave oven has been in use for 15 minutes or more, allow it to cool before using it again.

7. The container and turntable may become hot during use, take great care when removing either from the oven. It is advisable to use an ove n cloth or glove when doing so.

8. Remember when using an aluminium foil container that the reheating or cook ing ti mes may be longer than you are us ed to, always ensure that the food is piping hot before serving.

Food safety

•

Do not heat food in a can in the microwave oven. Always remove the food to a suitable container.

•

Deep fat frying shou ld not be done in the microwave oven, because the fat temperature cannot be controlled, hazard ous situations can result.

•

Popcorn may be prepared in the microwave oven, but only in special packag es or utensils d esigned specifically for this purpose. This cooking op eration should never be unattend ed.

•

Pierce foods with non-porous skins or membra nes to prevent steam build-up and bursting. Apples, potatoes, chicken livers, and egg yolks are examples of items that should be p ierced.

•

The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars are to be stirred or shaken and the te m p erature is to be checked before consumption, in order to avoi d burns.

WARNING

: Liquids or other foods must

not be heated in sealed containers since they are liable to explode.

WARNING

: Microwave heating of

beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling, therefore ca re mu st be ta ke n w hen handling the container.

WARNING

: When heating liquids, e.g.

soups, sauces and beverages in your microwa

e oven, overheating the liquid beyond boiling point can oc cur withou t evid en ce of bubbling. This could resul t in a sud den boil over of the hot liquid. To prevent th is possibility the following steps should b e ta ken:

1. Avoid using straight-sided containers with narrow necks.

2. Do not overheat.

Page 7

EMS2020

í===========================================

English

3. Stir the liquid before placing the container in the oven and again halfway through the heating time.

4. After heating, allow to stand in the oven for a short time, stirring again before carefully removing the container.

WARNING

: Some products such as

whole eggs and sealed containers – for example, closed glass ja rs – may explode and should not b e he ated in this ov en. Occasionally, poached eggs may explode during cooking. Always pierce the yolk, then cover and allow the standing time of one minute before removing cover.

It is quite normal for steam to be emitted around the door, or for misting to occur on the

door, or even for water droplets to appear below the door during the cooking cycle. This is merely condensation from the heat of the food and does not affect the safety of your oven. The door is not intended to seal the oven cavity completely.

•

Do not force the turntable to rotate by hand. This may cause m alfunctioning.

•

Arcing in the oven during microwave operation usually occu rs from use of metalli c utensils. Continuous arcing, however, can damage the unit. Stop the progr amme and check the utens il.

•

Care should be taken not to obstruct any air vents located on the top, rear, side and bottom of the oven.

: Do not use this oven for

commercial purposes.This oven is made for domes ti c use only .

EMS2020

í===========================================

English

1. Remove any promotion label from the door.

2. The oven should be installed on a fla t, level

surface. The surface must be strong enough to safely bear the weight (13.5 kg) of the oven, and the contents. To avoid the possibility of causing vibration or noise the oven must be in a stable position.

3. Keep the oven away from heat and water.

Exposure to heat and w ater can lower oven efficiency and lead to malfunctioning, so be sure to install the oven away from heat and water sources.

4. Do not block air vents on the top and the sides of

the cabinet and also do not place any articles on the top of the oven. If air vents are blocked during operation, the oven may overheat, and this may lead to malfunctioning. Hot air escapes from the vents, so be sure not to obstruct it or let curtains come between the oven and the rear wall.

5. Place the oven as far away from radios and TV’s

as possible. This oven does con form to EEC requirements of radio interference suppression, but some interference may occur if it is placed too close to a radio or TV, so keep them as far apart as possible.

6. If positioned in a corner, leave a gap of at least

10 cm from the walls and 10 cm above the microwave.

IMPORTANT!

The oven can be placed almost anywhere in the kitchen. Make sure the oven is placed on a flat, level surface and that vents as well as the surface underneath the oven are not blocked (for sufficient ventilation).

Connecting to the mains

The oven is delivered with the power cord and a plug for 230V, 50Hz, earthed socket outlet. Earth protection minimises the risks should a short circuit occur. Check to ensure the voltage of the oven matches the supply.

N.B. If the oven is connected to the socket via an extension cord, make sure the cord is earthed.

This appliance must not be used on a non- earth protected power supply. Contact an

electrician if you are uncertain regarding electrical connection of the oven or provision of earth protection of the supply.

This appliance must be earthed. If this appliance is fitted with a non-rewireable plug

for which your socket is unsuitable, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent

or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

Defrosting Tips

1. It is better to und e re stimate defrosting time if you are unsure. Food will continue to defrost during the stan d in g time.

2. Separate food as soon as possible.

3. Turn large items, e.g. joints, halfway through the defrosting time.

4. Remove any thawed food as soon as possible.

5. Remove or open any packaging before defrosting.

6. Plac e fo o d in a larger contai n e r th an that which it was frozen in, this will a llo w for easy stirring.

7. Begin thawing poultry, breast side down and turn over halfway through defrosting time or at pause. Delicate areas such as wing tips can b e sh ielded with small pieces of smooth foil.

Standing time is very important, particu larly for large, dense foo d s which can not be stirred to ensure that the centre is completely defros te d before cooking .
