
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a Fisher & Paykel authorised technician or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid hazard.
Electrical
This appliance must be grounded. This oven is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only the oven be provided. Using a high voltage is dangerous and may result in a fire or other accidents causing oven damage.
WARNING!
Electric Shock Hazard
Do not modify the moulded plug attached .
Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.
Note:
1
If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical instructions, consult a qualified
electrician or a Fisher & Paykel authorised technician.
2
Neither the manufacturer nor the dealer can accept any liability for damage to the oven or
personal injury resulting from failure to observe the electrical connection procedures.
The wires in this cable main are coloured in accordance with the following code: Green and Yellow = EARTH Blue = NEUTRAL Brown = LIVE
Radio interference
Operation of the microwave oven can cause interference to your radio, TV or similar equipment. When there is interference, it may be reduced or eliminated by taking the following measures:
1
Clean door and sealing surface of the oven.
2
Reorient the receiving antenna of radio or television.
3
Relocate the microwave oven with respect to the receiver.
4
Move the microwave oven away from the receiver.

Microwave cooking principles

Arrange food items carefully. Place thickest areas towards outside of dish.

Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of time indicated and add more as needed.

Food severely overcooked can smoke or ignite.

Cover food items while cooking. Covers prevent spattering and help food items to cook evenly.

Turn food items over once during microwaving to speed cooking of such food items as chicken and hamburgers. Large items like roasts must be turned over at least once.
7
Safety and warnings

Rearrange food items such as meatballs halfway through cooking both from top to bottom and from the centre of the dish to the outside.
Utensils guide

The ideal material for a microwave utensil is transparent to microwave energy (see table below).

It allows energy to pass through the container and heat the food.

Microwave energy cannot penetrate metal, so metal utensils or dishes with metallic trim should not be used.

Do not use recycled paper products when microwave cooking, as they may contain small metal fragments which may cause sparks and/or fires.

Round/oval dishes rather than square/oblong ones are recommend, as food in corners tends to overcook.

Narrow strips of aluminium foil may be used to prevent overcooking of exposed areas. Be careful not to use too much and keep a distance of 2.54 cm between foil and cavity.

The list below is a general guide to help you select the correct utensils.
