How the Microwave Function Works

Microwaves are a form of energy similar to radio, television waves, and ordinary daylight. Normally, microwaves spread outwards as they travel through the atmosphere and disappear without effect.

This oven, however, has a magnetron that is designed to make use of the energy in microwaves. Electricity, supplied to the magnetron tube, is used to create microwave energy.

These microwaves enter the cooking area through openings inside the oven. A tray is located inside the oven. Microwaves cannot pass through metal walls of the oven, but they can penetrate such materials as glass, porcelain and paper, the materials out of which microwave-safe cooking dishes are constructed.

Microwaves do not heat cookware, though cooking vessels will eventually get hot from the heat generated by the food.

A very safe appliance

Your Microwave oven, is one of the safest of all home appliances. When the door is opened, the oven automatically stops producing microwaves. Microwave energy is converted completely to heat when it enters food, leaving no “left over” energy to harm you when you eat your food.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS/READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

Read and follow all instructions before using your oven to prevent the risk of fіre, electric shock, personal injury, or damage when using the oven. This guide does not cover all possible conditions that may occur. Always contact your service agent or manufacturer about problems that you do not understand.

WARNING

This is the safety alert symbol. This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others. All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word“ WARNING”or “CAUTION”. These word means:

WARNING

This symbol will alert you to hazards or unsafe practices which could cause serious bodily harm or death.

CAUTION

This symbol will alert you to hazards or unsafe practices which could cause bodily injury or property damage.

WARNING

1Do not attempt to tamper with, or make any adjustments or repairs to the door, door seals, control panel, safety interlock switches or any other part of the oven which would involve the removal of any cover protecting against exposure to microwave energy. Do not operate the oven if the door seals and adjacent parts of the microwave oven are faulty. Repairs should only be undertaken by a qualified service technician.

=Unlike other appliances, the microwave oven is a high-voltage and a high electrical-current piece of equipment. Improper use or repair could result in harmful exposure to excessive microwave energy or in electric shock.

2Do not use the oven for the purpose of dehumidification. (ex. Operating the microwave oven with wet newspapers, clothes, toys, electric devices, pet or child etc.)

=It can be the cause of serious damage to safety such as a fire, a burn or a sudden death due to an electric shock.

WARNING

3The appliance is not intended for use by young children or elderly persons. 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.

=

Improper use may cause damage such as a fire, electric shock or burn.

4

Accessible parts may become hot during use. Young children should be kept away.

=

They may get a burn.

 

WARNING

5Liquids or other foods must not be heated in sealed containers since they are liable to explode. Remove the plastic wrapping from food before cooking or defrosting. Note though that in some cases food should be covered with plastic film, for heating or cooking.

=They could burst.

WARNING

6Do not operate your oven if it is damaged. It is particularly important that the oven door closes properly and that there is no damage to the: (1) door(bent), (2) hinges and latches (broken or loosened), (3) door seals and sealing surfaces.

=It could result in harmful exposure to excessive microwave energy.

7Be certain to use proper accessories on each operation mode, refer to the guide on page 12.

=Improper use could result in damage to your oven and accessories, or could make spark and a fire.

8The children should not allow to play with accessories or hang down from the door handle.

=They may get hurt.

9It is hazardous for anyone other than a competent person to carry out any service or repair operation that involves the removal of a cover which gives protection against exposure to microwave energy.

10When the appliance is operated in the combination mode, children should only use the oven under adult supervision due to the temperatures generated.

CAUTION

1You cannot operate your oven with the door open due to the safety interlocks built into the door mechanism. It is important not to tamper with the safety interlocks.

It could result in harmful exposure to excessive microwave energy. (Safety interlocks automatically switch off any cooking activity when the door is opened).

2Do not place any object (such as kitchen towels, napkins, etc.) between the oven front face and the door or allow food or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.

It could result in harmful exposure to excessive microwave energy.

3Please ensure cooking times are correctly set, small amounts of food require shorter cooking or \ heating time.

Over cooking may result in the food catching on fire and subsequent damage to you r oven.

4When heating liquids, e.g. soups, sauces and beverages in your microwave oven, * Avoid using straight sided containers with narrow necks.

*Do not overheat.

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

*After heating, let it stand in the oven for a short time; stir or shake it again carefully and check the temperature of it before consuming to avoid burns (especially, contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars).

Be careful when handling the container. Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling without evidence of bubbling. This could result in hot liquids suddenly boiling over.

5An exhaust outlet is located on the top, bottom or side of the oven. Don’t block the outlet.

It could result in damage to your oven and poor cooking results.

6Do not operate the oven when empty. It is best to leave a glass of water in the oven when not in use. The water will safely absorb all microwave energy, if the oven is accidentally started.

Improper use could result in damage to your oven.

7Do not cook food wrapped in paper towels, unless your cook book contains instructions for the food you are cooking. And do not use newspaper in place of paper towels for cooking.

Improper use can cause an explosion or a fire.

8Do not use wooden containers and ceramic containers that have metallic (e.g. gold or silver) inlays. Always remove metal twist ties. Check that the utensils are suitable for use in microwave ovens before use.

They may heat-up and char. Metal objects in particular may arc in the oven, which can cause serious damage.

9Do not use recycled paper products.

They may contain impurities which may cause sparks and/or fires when used in cooking.

10Do not rinse the tray and rack by placing it in water just after cooking. This may cause breakage or damage.

Improper use could result in damage to your oven.

11Be certain to place the oven so the front of the door is 8 cm or more behind the edge of the surface on which it is placed, to avoid accidental tipping of the appliance.

Improper use could result in bodily injury and oven damage.

12 Before cooking, pierce the skin of potatoes, apples or any such fruit or vegetables.

They could burst.

13Do not cook eggs in their shell. Eggs in their shell and whole hardboiled eggs should not be heated in microwave ovens since they may explode, even after microwave heating has ended.

Pressure will build up inside the egg which will burst.

14 Do not attempt deep fat frying in your oven.

This could result in a sudden boil over of the hot liquid.

15If smoke is observed, switch off or disconnect the oven from the power supply and keep the oven door closed in order to stifle any flames.

It can cause serious damage such as a fire or electric shock.

16When food is heated or cooked in disposable containers made of plastic, paper or other combustible materials, keep an eye on the oven and check it frequently.

Your food may be poured due to the possibility of container deterioration, which also can cause a fire.

17The temperature of accessible surfaces may be high when the appliance is operating. Do not touch the oven door, outer cabinet, rear cabinet, oven cavity, accessories and dishes during grill mode, convection mode and auto cook operations, before cleaning make sure they are not hot.

As they will become hot, there is the danger of a burn unless wearing thick culinary gloves.

18 The oven should be cleaned regularly and any food deposits should be removed.

Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of the surface.

This could adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation.

19If there are heating elements, the appliance becomes hot during use. Care should be taken to avoid touching the heating elements inside the oven.

There is danger of a burn.

20Follow exact directions given by each manufacturer for their popcorn product. Do not leave the oven unattended while the corn is being popped. If corn fails to pop after the suggested times, discontinue cooking. Never use a brown paper bag for popping corn. Never attempt to pop leftover kernels.
