You cannot operate your oven with the door open due to the safety interlocks built into the door mechanism. These safety interlocks automatically switch off any cooking activity when the door is opened; which in the case of a microwave oven could result in harmful exposure to microwave energy.
It is important not to tamper with the safety interlocks.
Do not place any object between the oven front face and the door or allow food or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.
Do 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.
Your oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except qualified service personnel.
Precautions to avoid possible exposure to excessive microwave energy.
When heating liquids, e.g. soups, sauces and beverages in your microwave oven, delayed eruptive boiling can occur without evidence of bubbling. This could result in a sudden boil over of the hot liquid. To prevent this possibility the following steps should be taken:
1 Avoid using straight sided containers with narrow necks.
2 Do not overheat.
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, stir or shake
them(especially the contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars) again carefully and check the temperature of them before consumption to avoid burns (especially, contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars). Be careful when handling the container.
Always allow food to stand after being cooked by
microwaves and check the temperature of them
before consumption. Especially contents of feeding
bottles and baby food jars.
Please ensure cooking times are correctly set as
over cooking may result in the FOOD catching fire
and subsequent damage to your oven.

How the Microwave Oven Works
Microwaves are a form of energy similar to radio and television waves and ordinary daylight. Normally, microwaves spread outwards as they travel through the atmosphere and disappear without effect. Microwave ovens, however, have a magnetron which is designed to make use of the energy in microwaves. Electricity, supplied to the magnetron tube, is used to created microwave energy.
These microwaves enter the cooking area through openings inside the oven. A turntable or tray is located at the bottom of 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.

until it has been repaired by a competent person.
9. It 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.
10. When the appliance is operated in the combination mode, children
should only use the oven under adult supervision due to the
temperatures generated.
CAUTION
1. You 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.)
2. Do 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.
3. Do 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.
4. Please 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 your oven.
5. When 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).
Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling,
*
therefore care has to be taken when handling the container.
6. An 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.
7. Do 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.
