Features of the Product

Safe to use

The door adopts unique anti-choke structure and integrated punch forming,

And thus effectively prevents the microwave from leaking.

It is controlled by two-step interlock switch. The power will be switched off

automatically when the door is open, therefore it is much safer to use.

Shining appearance

It has modern appearance and superior quality, and thus becomes the

best choice for the household microwave oven.

Healthy and germicidal

The sealing part of the cavity is produced with antiseptic materials, and

can suppress the reproduction of the bacteria effectively.

The special function of the microwave oven can eliminate the germ in the

food quickly and completely.

Cooking Tips

Food temperature

Food moisture

Food shape

Food density

Food quantity

Bone and fat

Add cover

Settle

Lower temperature requires longer cooking time. Frozen food needs longer heating time than common food.

As the microwave cavity is smaller it will retain a higher level of humidity, larger humidity levels result in shorter cooking time.

As the microwave can only penetrate 2-4cm into the food,

the thickness of the food will influence the cooking time.

Heating times are different between dense food (meats) and loose(peas) food. The former requires

longer time.

The selected power level of the microwave is a certain value, and will not change along with the quantity of the food. Therefore larger quantity of food requires longer cooking time.

Bones have quicker heat transmission, and fats absorb more energy. Therefore please pay attention to the overheat possibility in cooking the meat with bones and fats.

The production of heat and vapour can be reduced by placing the food into a container with a cover, this will shorten the cooking time.

Please form the food in circular shape during cooking,

and avoid piling up as far as possible. It can improve the evenness.

Stir

Seal

Lay aside

When cooking Iiquid food like the soap, juice or beverage etc., stir it slightly before and during cooking.

Seal the food with freshness-preserve film to avoid splashing and contaminating the cavity. It can also preserve the moisture and nutrition.

When the food is removed from the microwave oven, the inside of the food is still heating. Place it aside for some time. Take the factor of duration into consideration.

Page 16

Maintenance * Repair

Maintenance: Frequently cleaning and maintenance can guarantee normal

performance of the microwave oven.

Be sure to switch off the power before cleaning.

Use soapy water to clean the shell, and wipe it with soft cloth.

Use wet cloth to clean food scraps on the door door seal and inside the cavity. Use wet cloth soaked with soapy water to clean the other deposits

Keep the inner side of the door clean. Keep it free from food scraps.

Take it out at least once per week, put into water to clean, to prevent deposits from corroding the rotary wheel.

Note that the power supply cable shall not be damaged or broken. If the power supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacter,its service agent or similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.

Do not use detergent and materials containing metal to clean the cavity and

door.

Answers to Questions

Answers to questions

Why is the lamp not on?

1. The lamp has failed.

2. The timer is not set.

Why is the vapor emitted from the air discharge outlet? Why is there water overflowing

below the door?

Can the microwave leak from the view window of the door?

If start the microwave oven

without load of food, will it damage the oven?

Why does the food need to be

laid aside after cooking?

Why is it not so quick as stated in the manual to cook with my microwave oven?

Why is there sparking or cracking sound during cooking sometimes?

In maintenance, the technicians shall pay attention that:

Components that are easy to dismantled and likely to touch voltage above 240V:

1. Magnetron

2. High-voltage transformer

3. High-voltage capacitor

4. High-voltage diode

5. AK rectifier Components that may

Do not expose yourself to the radiation of the microwave generator or

other components that transfer the microwave energy.

It is normal that the vapor may emit during cooking. Sometimes the vapor will condensed into water and flow out. It is normal phenomenon.

No. The metal shelter can reflect the energy back into the oven. The view window only allows harmless light to pass

through. The microwave energy can not pass through.

Yes. NEVER do that.

It is important to lay the food aside for several minutes. Cooking by microwave oven makes the food retrain heat inside. After you take out the food from the oven, the inside of the food will continue heating for 2-3 minutes. It can assist the cooking the joint of the food, vegetables or cookies completely outside the oven by laying aside.

Check the user's manual. Confirm that you follow the instruction completely. Find out the reason for setting different times. The setting of cooking time is only for reference. To avoid excess cooking, you shall learn the technology of cooking with microwave. The volume, weight and shape of the food can all influence the cooking. Take the instruction as reference, and learn it independently.

It may be owing to following:l. Dishware with metal part is used (including gold and silver);

2. Fork or other metal dishware are left in the oven;

3. Too much metallic foil are used;

4. Metallic thread is used to bind the food.
