MICROWAVE COOKING PRINCIPLES

1. Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas
towards outside of dish.
2. Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest
amount of time indicated and add more as
needed. Food severely overcooked can
smoke or ignite.
3. Cover foods while cooking. Covers prevent
spattering and help foods to cook evenly.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

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
accident causing oven damage.
WARNING Improper use of the grounding plug
can result in a risk of electric shock.
Note:
4. Turn foods over once during microwave
cooking to speed cooking of such foods as
chicken and hamburgers. Large items like
roasts must be turned over at least once.
5. Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway
through cooking both from top to bottom and
from the center of the dish to the outside.
1. If you have any questions about the
grounding or electrical instructions, consult a
qualified electrician or service person.
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 colored in
accordance with the following code:
Green and Yellow = EARTH
Blue = NEUTRAL
Brown = LIVE

BEFORE YOU CALL FOR SERVICE

1. Check to ensure that the oven is plugged in
securely. If it is not, remove the plug from the
outlet, wait 10 seconds, and plug it in again
securely.

main circuit breaker. If these seem to be
operating properly, test the outlet with

another appliance.
3. Check to ensure that the control panel is

UTENSILS GUIDE

1. The ideal material for a microwave utensil is
transparent to microwave, it allows energy to
pass through the container and heat the food.
2. Microwave cannot penetrate metal, so metal
utensils or dishes with metallic trim should not
be used.
3. Do not use recycled paper products when
microwave cooking, as they may contain
small metal fragments which may cause

sparks and/or fires.
4. Round /oval dishes rather than square/oblong
ones are recommend, as food in corners
tends to overcook.
5. Narrow strips of aluminum foil may be used
to prevent overcooking of exposed areas.
But be careful don’t use too much and keep
a distance of 1 inch (2.54cm) between foil
and cavity.

1. Turn off the oven and remove the power
plug from the wall socket before cleaning.
2. Keep the inside of the oven clean. When
food splatters or spilled liquids adhere to
oven walls, wipe with a damp cloth. Mild
detergent may be used if the oven gets
very dirty. Avoid the use of spray and other
harsh cleaners as they may stain, streak
or dull the door surface.
3. The outside surfaces should be cleaned
with a damp cloth. To prevent damage to
the operating parts inside the oven, water
should not be allowed to seep into the
ventilation openings.
4. Wipe the both sides of the door and
window, the door seals and adjacent parts
frequently with a damp cloth to remove
any spills or spatters. Do not use abrasive
cleaner.
5. Do not allow the control panel to become
wet. Clean with a soft, damp cloth. When
cleaning the control panel, leave oven
door open to prevent oven from
accidentally turning on.
6. 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
condition. And it is normal.
7. It is occasionally necessary to remove the
glass tray for cleaning. Wash the tray in
warm sudsy water or in a dishwasher.
8. The roller ring and oven floor should be
cleaned regularly to avoid excessive noise.
Simply wipe the bottom surface of the
